Aqua is the Rainbow Scrap Challenge (RSC) color of the month.
This week I made some 3 inch finished Old Italian blocks. These are made with a stack, whack and shuffle method using a stack of six 5 inch squares.
I did not get all my stacks of aqua/another color squares all turned into Old Italians this week but will continue to work on those in October. I've been making these for a long time so I'm kind of thinking I should take count and decide what size quilt I want to make.
I also used up a bunch of 4.5 inch width scraps of aqua this week and depending upon length I made Broken Dishes blocks or...
Wonky Windmills (stack and whack method using 4.5 x 5 inch pieces) or...
Four Patches.
And sew on...
It's always fun to see what pretty scraps you're using in your blocks, Cathy! I love those Old Italian blocks - they're going to make a fun quilt!
