Going Green

 Green is the color of the month for the Rainbow Scrap Challenge.  So, I dug in my green scrap bag and pulled out the smallest of scraps...
 I first sorted all the 2.5 inch bits and pieces and sewed them into a chain. I then took some of the other odd sized bits and pieces and sewed them into 4.5 inch crumb blocks.

The 2.5 inch chain was then combined with muslin to make 2.5 inch HSTs.
And I then combined them into six inch bear track blocks and then sewed 4-6 inch blocks together to make 12 inch blocks.   I have plenty of green scraps so I think I'll get another donation quilt made of all the green scraps!  It's my own challenge to see how many donation quilts I can make from my scraps. 

To see what everyone else is doing with their green scraps visit the Scrap Happy Saturday linky party at soscrappy.

    Wow! I never thought to make strip and then use that for HST's. Great idea. I love how your quilt is coming together. It is amazing how such tiny pieces of fabric can make a wonderful quilt.

    Great blocks. I love the way the large part of the bears paw is pieced all scrappy.
