Scrappy Saturday in Green!

SoScrappy chose GREEN for the month of February. I just happen to have a Jacobs Ladder that is progressing in green and creams. I really hope to get this top finished this month and with the green challenge I think I can do it. I was able to do up 4 of these blocks after dinner while G took the kids outside and pushed them on the swings. I now have 3 left to do and then I can figure out the layout and sew the blocks into a top.

From this quilt... I also had a bunch of 2 inch squares left over. This is what gave me the idea to cut some 2 inch squares each month in a different color for a quilt to work on next year in the Irish chain pattern. I think I may add a few to this pile but I have a good amount in here right now. I also included the reds since I forgot to get a picture of them last month.

In the next couple of weeks I plan to work on some of the birds in the air blocks and the pinwheel block. Go on over and check out what everyone else is working on this month.

This month's colour is working out perfectly for you! Maybe we'll have blue next month and I will work on my JL blocks. I really must get back to them soon.

Good to see more green today. Nice to be able to work on a UFO. I love Jacob's Ladder.
