Scrappy Saturday

Major progress was made with the red scraps this week. I finished another Mad City Mama block (pattern from Bonnie Hunter's book Adventures with Leaders and Enders). 
Red was a fun colour to play with and I had many prints with little graphics that I could fussy cut. 
As soon as I took the photo, I could see that I forgot one of the light triangle corners. But it was easy to add in, and voila... here are the 8 blocks on the design wall.

WOW that's a lot of scraps!

Only one more block to go. 
What colour should I add?
Brown?
Gold?
Grey?
Lime green?

  1. A black and grey block in the centre could look good or a tan and light brown could also look good in the centre. Or would you consider a rainbow block to go centre stage?

  13. I would like to see lime green! I notice from reading the other comments that this is a favorite. Take some of the greens from the other green block and build on those. Gold would be okay except you have an orange and a yellow. You have 2 blues and 2 red/pinks and a purple center. The grey and brown and tan would not be right with the other bright colors. Just my opinion:)

  14. What a wonderful set of blocks...you do have quite interesting projects! I can see either gold or lime green...but I could also see a green-blue block with extra emphasis on the green.

  21. If you have 4 more center squares, then make 4 more blocks, and have a 12 block quilt instead of a 9 block quilt.

    You are the scrap quilt queen!!
