Scrappy Saturday

It's green month at the Rainbow Scrap Challenge, which is perfect for celebrating St. Patrick's Day and also for those of us who are longing for signs of spring. Today my world is covered in white as we had a huge snowfall last night.

I am snug in my sewing room with my little green scraps spread around, and I am cutting them into 1.5" squares for my Scrappy Stars project. 

Here is the first green star block - so darn pretty! I hope to make some alternate 25 patch blocks today. There are already enough squares cut to enjoy some mindless sewing.


This is an early RSC project and there aren't many blocks made yet. it's too early to tell if this will be a small quilt or a large bed quilt. It depends on how much I like it over time.

Great St. Patty's Day star block. I can envision this block in a variety of scrap fabric coming together very nicely.

That's a pretty green star! I'm ready to enjoy sewing with some green scraps. The perfect color for March - we're getting more snow this coming week, too!

That is such a pretty star block. Greens can be hard sometimes, but your fabric selections all work well together.
