I was so happy to read that Red was the RSC color for January. I also couldn't wait to get back to making blocks for my Garden Sampler quilt.
Last year, I had already made a juicy red strawberry. It was the first block I made for this quilt - just to try the concept out.
This last week, I added in a squat tomato. I used 2.5" squares on this one.
I also made three little apples out of 1.5" squares. I had seen this "eaten" apple somewhere and tucked away in my brain. I thought it would make a cute addition.
Here are all of my blocks to date (in no particular order). So far, I have made red, orange, blue and green blocks. It is fun to think what I might be sewing next month!

it is fun trying to clear out scraps - it makes projects so interesting!
This is going to be such a fun quilt! Do you think you might publish a pattern? I’d love to make one!
I adore your garden quilt and look so forward to watching it grow
Your garden is looking delicious. Love the eaten apple!
The addition of your tomato and mini apples are perfect! I'm still smitten with those carrots and was happy to see them again too!
Those are the cutest blocks! I love the apples!
Loving your Garden Sampler!
The apple core block is so fun. :)
Lovely blocks you've made. Maybe I should try a tomato?
What a delicious looking garden. Love the half eaten apple.
Love how your Garden is growing!
What a cute strawberry. All your blocks look great.
You need some bananas or grapes now.
That "eaten" apple makes me smile! This is going to be such a fun quilt!
I wish I could piece like you Cynthia...your postage stamp blocks and these wonderful garden blocks. I think this is going to be a wonderful hanging and remembering and including the eaten apple is inspired.
The blocks look wonderful. Most quilts that use scraps do not look so well planned. It's going to be wonderful when it's finished.
That eaten apple is so fun! This is going to be such a great quilt, I can't wait to see all your garden harvest together!
Your blocks are so fun - especially that eaten apple! It reminds me of my grandbabies! Thank you for sharing!
The garden quilt is coming together beautifully. Love all the blocks you've made for it.
I love your garden sampler quilt!
