It's been a busy couple of weeks; however, in bits of time I have worked on a few Rainbow Scrap Challenge (RSC) blocks.
I had accumulated a lot of brown 2.5 inch width scraps. I've been making quarter stars to be turned into full stars later on. I think this is the last of my longer scraps so now I need to see how many stars I can make from the quarter star pieces.
I made a few Boo Boo Patches from gray 1.5 inch scraps.
And I now have met my goal of 300 - 4 inch finished Windmill blocks for a 15 x 20 block layout which will make for a 60 x 80 inch quilt.
And sew on...

Congratulations on finishing all the windmills! Quarter stars are a good way to insure a scrappy mix.
I love that you use whatever light coloured print for the background in your quarter stars. I am hesitant to do that and I always run out of light fabric. I should use light prints too. You are my inspiration. Your blocks are awesome as always. Enjoy! ;^)
I love those quarter star blocks! I think I might make some of those - they'll make a fun collection for an RSC quilt!
Nice group of quilt blocks you are working on, Cathy... I like those 1/4 Stars a lot--this one will be nice and scrappy the way you are working on it.:))) Hugs for a great weekend Julierose
It seems you have a good start with your quarter stars. Surprise - not - I see one of my favorite fabrics in amongst your windmill blocks. It is the turquoise with the gold paintbrush stripes. Wish I had bought more of it.
Your scrappy blocks are always so inspirational to me. The quarter stars have my wheels turning! And it’s been a while since I’ve made pinwheels. I love that block. Great work!
