Oh Scrap! : More RSC Blocks

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!

Oh Scrap! : Garden Blocks

Last month, I decided to start a new Rainbow Scrap Challenge quilt.




Remember my little red strawberry block I made for July?





It is now joined by a cute orange tangerine block made from 2.5" squares.





A chubby pumpkin block was also added to the mix.  I decided to use 2.5" strips for this block.



I will also be "planting" a short row of carrots in my RSC garden quilt.  
I used Sally's carrot pattern as a starting point.

I am planning on my blocks for this quilt being all different sizes.  It will be a puzzle to get them into a quilt top once I complete the rainbow.  Can't wait!
