This month's color is Orange with a dab of black and/or brown. Orange is a color I don't use a lot or have a lot of in my stash. BUT enough to find scraps to make those small blocks.
The spool blocks come first as they use the 'largest' pieces of scraps.
Then skinny strings go into the tiny log cabin blocks - and yes, these are paper pieced.
And the little 9-patches come out of my 1.5" barrel. Why cut tiny when you already have it.
I just have the blocks to make for the column quilt, but I may have to get real creative with my bit of orange - or do a bit of shopping.

Such CUTE blocks, especially those tiny nines.
ReplyDeletelove all your orange blocks
ReplyDeleteYour orange blocks are a delight!
ReplyDeleteOrange can be difficult, but yours played very nicely.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE the little logs. Orange is one of my big collections in my scraps. ;-)
ReplyDeletehow full of energy! The first spools with black are awesome
ReplyDeleteI'm ending up with a lot of orange, because I find it very hard to resist!
ReplyDeleteThose spools on the black background really pop. (I may end up having to make spools in the near future if you keep showing yours off!)
And love the log cabins and nine patches, too. You always make such great use of your scrappy bits!
The little log cabin blocks are adorable. Lots of pretty orange blocks.
ReplyDeleteI love your small log cabin block, really do.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful spools -- and love those little bitty log cabins and nine patches.
ReplyDeleteGreat blocks Sharon! I don't use a lot of orange either, so did not think I had much to work with. Then I dug around in my CW fabrics and found a bunch of cheddar/orange.
ReplyDeleteIt would be a real shame to have to go shopping... ;- )
ReplyDeleteGreat orange blocks. The spools with black are shinning. Love them all.
ReplyDeleteThe black background really makes your spools pop. Love them! And the log cabins are great!
ReplyDeleteLove the tiny log cabin blocks with the black centers, very well done. The spools are q real standout with the black. Keep up the good work!
ReplyDeleteThose little 9 patch blocks are a delight. Enjoyed your quilt show pictures from last week too.
ReplyDeleteReally cute blocks! I love the log cabins!
ReplyDeleteAll of your blocks are so pretty! I'm really loving the oranges!
ReplyDeleteGreat blocks! Orange is one of my favorite colors so I have a nice selection of scraps. Thanks for linking up with Oh Scrap!
ReplyDeleteThose orange spools really pop against the black. Lots of fun scrappy orange blocks last week.
