I made a couple more blocks yesterday after running some errands. I have lots more short strips, the size in the small blocks, in the scrap bag so I'll continue making the small blocks in spare moments. I'm thinking of a medallion style quilt at this point.
I searched through my oldest Kaffe fabrics and came up with two more light fabrics. I have one more in the basement. Now I need to find a few more dark fabrics and get them pressed and cut. I haven't turned on an iron yet so I can't start sewing the pinwheel blocks yet.
While out running errands yesterday I found a miniature Chrysanthemum plant for $1. I briefly considered buying 3 of them and replanting one of my porch pots. Then I came to my senses and just bought one for my kitchen.

Hahaha--it's hard to turn down such a pretty plant bargain;))) What a cheery color...
I love your little scrappy square blocks;)))
65 here--still warmish overnight these days...
I began a new little scroll and readied a table runner for some hand quilting...baby steps. hugs Julierose
Awww I'm glad you adopted that little mum - it's pretty and happy there in your kitchen. Nice tomatoes too. Love the scrappy blocks!
I love mums...yours is too sweet!
Love the block!

Those scrappy blocks are so fun! The light leaf print is so pretty! That was a bargain for only $1.00! I hope it lasts a long time for you.
Such a fun array of your blocks and just stitching on them when you have a moment or two, each one has such a vibrant impact. ~ I know I’m going to love your blues and you haven’t even stitched on one yet. And to bring in a such a cheerful little mum plant just for your window sill… was a happy way to end your day .
There ya go, something bright to work on between the blues!
Love those bright blocks! And the light/dark blues are gorgeous. I had the same “come to my senses” moment earlier today with baby mums for under $5 — despite the temptation, they are all still at the store.
Those are super cool blocks!
