Scrappy Saturday

September was a productive sewing month and I added red blocks to two of my ongoing projects. Several easy breezy leader-ender blocks were cut from scraps and I enjoyed using up a variety of background fabrics. Because I am sewing these blocks in true leader-ender style, I only finished 4 of the blocks I cut so far. This sewing will continue into October.


And these are the mini 3" arrowhead blocks made from red scraps. I now have over 100 blocks in the collection and have started thinking about possible layouts.


I have started to sew some blocks into 4 patches to make layout design process a bit easier. I have 12 blocks of 4 sewn together so far. I need to sew more pink and yellow blocks.

Easy breezy blocks are one of my rainbow projects too! I'm looking forward to seeing what the color is for October so I can get started piecing. Happy stitching!

Love those little arrowhead blocks. I think this month’s colour is yellow as that is the only colour left on her list that has not been used yet. Do the scraps ever get used up??.
