Scrappy Saturday
I'm working away on my collection of Alamo star blocks.
I've been making blocks for almost 5 years and this year I am sewing them together into 4 patch blocks with two light colour backgrounds and two dark backgrounds. The star colours in each four patch are random, which I constantly remind myself does not mean "evenly placed"!! Here are a four more finished green 4 patches from May, and eight blues from this month. The 4 patch blocks measure 4".

Love it! I want to start using scraps today, but I am forcing myself to finish a cross stitch project that has been ongoing for.....years.
Progress is good!! Even in small bits during the Rainbow Scrap Challenge. Congrats! on get your BLUE Alamo Stars assembled into 4-Patch blocks.
You have been so patient to work on these blocks for 5 years!! I love these teeny stars. How large will the quilt be? Are you finished making stars, or are you still slipping in a new one now and then?
So pretty to see these start turning in quilt parts!
Your stars are amazing - so, so tiny! That will be a wonderful quilt!
I had not heard of the Alamo block before. Yours are really looking great.
Wow - four inch finish on the four patch! Those are tiny little guys.
Evenly placed is overrated!
You are making great progress!
Looking good. Love the spark of colour so far.
Great blocks. Haven't seen this design befor. I'll have to investigate Alamo star block especially as we visited the Alamo many years ago.
I know I've admired these before but I like them even better now you are sewing them together.
So happy to see these coming together -- love the randomness of it all.
Gorgeous colors! It's going to be a beautiful quilt when it's all together.
Those are so pretty.
