Feeling off doesn't lend itself to much sewing (neither does a toddler who wants to explore the sewing machine and cut with the rotary cutter!), so this week was slowing going. I was able to cut and prep plenty of blocks, but it's been difficult to get to the machine.
I managed to cut my 4" strip off each of my greens to make sure I have all my teals ready to go. Since this is my favorite color, it's my go-to for quilts, and I find the pickings are getting a little slim. Still, I'm not quite ready to spend money, so I won't be replenishing my stash right now.
I did finish there more 2" 36-patches, to bring my total to 25. Only 10 more to go! This is definitely not the final layout, but I am enjoying looking at what I've already sewn.
In the cutting arena, I have all the bits ready for my 6 Carrie Nation blocks, 13 Judy Laquidsrs scrap blocks, and the scrappy sampler blocks I haven't cut yet. That should keep me busy for a few weeks!
Off to sew! Be sure to visit all the other Rainbow Scrap Challengers to be inspired by teal!

Love the watercolor effect of the 36 patch blocks!
That's going to be a fun quilt!
Katie, I love how your blocks are looking together, maybe I should lay some of mine out (to enjoy), rather than just leaving them in a pile.
Your blocks look really good together. They are beginning to loose their squareness now they are blending into one another.
Lovely 36 patch blocks. The colours you have should allow for some nice flow and the individual blocks will just disappear and become one lovely whole.
That is going to be one great quilt!
Your 36 patch quilt is going to be spectacular. You are tempting me to do something similar with my stash of 2 inchers.
Beautiful 36 patch blocks. They will make a beautiful quilt when you get them all finished.
Great collection of 36 patches. Hope you are able to find time for the rest. Sounds like sewing time is hard to find right now.
This is a fantastic collection of 36 patch blocks... great job!
Your blocks are looking fantastic together
Love your 36-patch block collection. It's going to be a wonderful quilt.
