Got up early to sew a bit before work. Working on more Rainbow Scrap Challenge blocks in aqua. When I figured out how many blocks I would need for this quilt I figured about 64. So if I have 10 colors that's about 6 each...maybe 7 or another color. I have 5 purples...and pieces to make one more. Same with my aqua/sea green. I really like the blues...any blues ...might do one or two extra aqua.
I put a pattern for this block on my February 18th blog entry... scrappy block tutorial
As I was digging through my aqua scraps I found this old piece of Peter Pan fabric. It's REALLY old! Quite possibly from the 80s. I'm inserting a little here and there. Sure hope it doesn't bleed. I know I prewashed it years ago...crossing my fingers.
Ready to stitch up a couple more then I've got to leave...wish I could spend more time quilting!

That's an pretty block! Perfect for showing off a variety of fabrics.
(I've got some fabrics left from the 80's too!)
I like your block arrangement; it looks just right for using up small pieces.
Way to take advantage of small scrap and small bits of time!!
You are a dedicated stitcher to get up early and stitch before work.
