That would be true IF I had spent much time on my green scraps.
However, most of my week was spent on a long-overdue Tshirt quilt for a customer/cousin. It took her two years to select the shirts, and then I was pregnant, so it was put on the back burner. The better part of one day was spent basting. Then, two partial days and one full day of quilting rounded out the week. Now, with the binding machine stitched on, all I have left is the handwork.
In other news, of my four green projects, here are the statuses:
2" 36-patch: DONE!
spools:
Blue Ridge Beauty (a la Bonnie Hunter) in green:
Some cutting still to go (I didn't have 480 green 2" squares)
Plenty of ironing of aforementioned 2" squares in four patches
Most of the marking of diagonal lines to make the half-square triangles.
This may not be finished by the end of the month!
Simply Woven from the Moda Bakeshop:
I already goofed, irreparably, but I think it will still be lovely. If it's not finished this month, I'm not worried, as it took all of my blue AND green 2.5" and1.5" in medium and dark tones to cobble together the strips for this. Thus, a ready-made project for the blue month too!

I can't imagine that you could finish all that in one month. Have fun trying though.
That is a lot to get done in one month! The spools look pretty cute to me.
A lot of interesting green projects - I know we'll eventually see the fruits of your labors!
Cute spools. Ironing and cutting. Those are the time consuming parts.
So much scrappy green fun!
