Blue is the new color for the month of April. I have already began the process of sorting and cutting for all of my RSC projects. When I was digging in my blue bin, I found three shades of solids that I have not yet used in my Postage Stamp project. I quickly got them sewn up into blocks.
I think I have just six more blocks to make and I can sew the blocks together into a quilt top. This is one of the Hands2Help quilts I hope to donate this year.
I still had green scraps I needed to sew up from last month. So I made these little log cabin blocks in green as a leader/ender project. They are made from 3/4" and 1" cut strips. Whose bright idea were these? No wonder I am not finishing all my blocks each month!!
...okay, but they are kinda cute!

Your little logs are cute! And you are ahead of me. I haven't even started on blue scraps yet.
Your tiny log cabins are adorable! Do they go in the quilt you're working on that has log cabins of all sizes? Have a great Sunday, Cyndy!
It would take a very long time to use up all your scraps if every block you made came from 1 and .75 inch strips. As a nice change of a pace though, they are adorable!
I like those tiny logs too! I agree it would take a lot of blocks to make a project; but, they would be wonderful blocks!
Your tiny log cabin is lovely, Cynthia. Great blue postage stamps also.
I made "bubble" blocks for RSC a few years ago. They are fun and easy! I have been admiring the postage stamp blocks -- simple but visually interesting, and with rainbow patches they'll be stunning.
Yep, you did pick a lot of blocks this year. But they all look so good. It's always fun to see how they are progressing.
your blues look nice- but oh so small log cabins
Great blocks, Cynthia. Two of my favorites. Have fun sorting out your blues for this week project. Thank you so much for hosting the link party . Happy quilting.
