Scrappy Saturday - Alamo Stars
It's Canada's 150th birthday today and I wrote about it here yesterday so that today I could show the Rainbow Scrap Challenge stitchers my yellow progress this month.
I was able to get all my Alamo Star blocks with yellow backgrounds sewn into 4 patch units! I had to match up a few of the yellows with some darker background blocks using oranges and browns, but I'm happy with them. These 64 star blocks have been sewn into 16 four patch blocks. Let's not mention that I'm still working on the green ones from last month and will now start working on the blue ones also!

Great progress, you are going to have a huge number of blocks!
ReplyDeleteThese are looking great together!! Happy Canada day!!
ReplyDeleteYour blocks look so nice. This is going to be such a lovely quilt. Have fun with the blues in July!
ReplyDeleteThey look beautiful! If you finished off all your projects, you wouldn't have anything to work on. It is all about the progress and the process. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteWow! You've made some gorgeous blocks, and they look even more amazing all together.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday Canada - wow 150 years - great neighbor to the USA!
ReplyDeleteAren't those pretty?! I really like the contrast of the different yellow backgrounds!
ReplyDeleteCongrats for keeping up with this project. I haven't seen it in a while. It is wonderful to see them together. Enjoy! ;^)
ReplyDeleteHappy 150th my Canadian friend!
ReplyDeleteWhatcha going to do with them all? Make a quilt with all the colours?
ReplyDeleteHappy Sesquicentennial Canada Day, Kathy!!
ReplyDeleteTrying to figure out a way to make it special for my MIL in her nursing home room. I think at least a flag, and maybe some streamers.
Those little stars are too cute for words. Is this the year you sew them all into a top?!?
The range of yellows and golds makes this quilt so rich! It's going to be a beauty. :D
ReplyDeleteThe blocks are wonderful! They're going to make a fantastic quilt!
ReplyDeleteI really like all of those yellow blocks. It's a lovely quilt! Have a great day! --Andrea
ReplyDeleteWow so many done. How big are these blocks?
ReplyDeleteThese are so beautiful. Love yellow backgrounds, and the darker backgrounds add extra special interest to the blocks.
ReplyDeleteStill loving those alamo stars. The yellow just sets them off so beautifully.
ReplyDeleteOne step closer to joining up into a quilt top, yay!
ReplyDeleteA very colorful group of blocks with yellow. You are on the right track. The other colors should be great. Keep up the good work!
ReplyDeleteIt's so much fun to see these twinkly little stars keep taking shape!
ReplyDeleteNow that the little Alamo stars are in four patch arrangement it should be easier to work with. My recollection is that they're pretty tiny. The yellow look smashing.
