I made a Palm Branch block using some dark green scraps (since I had already sewn a bright green block). This free paper pieced pattern is from Quiet Play and is still available if you want to give it a try.
That brings the grand total of Palm Branch blocks to 12!
I also sewed a bunch of green spool blocks as leader/enders. What a wide variety of greens!
Then I joined four spool blocks together in similar greens to make a 6" block.
I just love the variety of backgrounds too!

Love the darker/sage green addition this month. Lots of pretty greens got sewn this month in your sewing area. Hope your son is feeling better.
ReplyDeleteSo nice seeing all the palm fronds together - what a wonderful rainbow project!
ReplyDeleteAll the blocks are looking pretty. The palm leaf blocks are very striking. Great block!

ReplyDeleteThe palm branches are really coming along. They look great. Wish I really enjoyed paper piecing. Good idea putting the spools together into blocks.
ReplyDeleteGreen is one of those colors with so many variants. Your palm blocks looks so great as a collection.

ReplyDeleteYou really had fun with the Greens this month, didn't you? I'm really drooling over your Palm Branch blocks :)
ReplyDeletewhat a lovely selection of greens, green is top of my colour list, can never have too many greens
ReplyDeleteWOW, you were really busy this month with all of your green blocks. Those palm leaves are so striking. Thanks for the link to the free pattern.
ReplyDeleteLove that combo shot of the multi color palm branches --
ReplyDeleteYour spools are also wonderful.
Lots of great green blocks. I should try your idea of sewing my spools into 4's. I have a draw full of spool blocks. Not sure what I want to do with them yet.
