Scrappy Saturday

Maverick Star block collection
It's been such a busy week and there hasn't been much time for sewing. But today I am putting away the to-do list and giving myself a whole day to rest and sew!
It's pink month over at the Rainbow Scrap Challenge, so I got out the pink scrap box and made 2 more Maverick Star blocks.
I first started making Maverick Star blocks inspired by Bonnie Hunter's scrappy pattern in April 2014. Today I realized that I have 89 blocks which is enough to make into a quilt top. 



2 Maverick Stars and 2 Shoo Flys
These star blocks are great to use up little triangle scraps, but now that Bonnie Hunter announced her new "Shoo, Fly, ShooLeader/Ender challenge, I have another project that can use up these little triangle scraps. 
So this photo marks the end of Maverick Stars and the beginning of Shoo Fly! 




Here are all the star blocks on the design wall. I love how each one is totally unique. Some are plain using only 2 fabrics, and some are very scrappy using up bits of 4 or more fabrics.
Time to sew these blocks into a quilt top!

To see more RSC projects, hop over to the weekly link up. Also linking up to Cynthia's Scrappy party.

Congrats on making enough Maverick Stars for a quilt top! I'm trying to resist Bonnie's Shoo, Fly, Shoo blocks. Your first two are SEW cute (that I don't know how long I will be able to do so!)

Those stars are going to make a wonderful scrappy quilt! The shoofly leader and ender project looks like fun, too. Will you make those in kinds of colors?
