Birch Tree Quilt Blocks

For this week of the Rainbow Scrap Challenge I made some Blue/Green Birch Tree quilt blocks.
 
Birch Tree Quilt blocks

The Birch Tree Pattern is by Amanda Jean Nyberg, she has a blog at Crazy Mom Quilts and is one of the co-authors of the book Sunday Morning Quilts.  My background fabric is from Colorways by Vicki Welsh. There were two different blue/green swatches in my rainbow of colours from Vicki, can you see the very slight variance in this picture?


I’m really liking how these Birch Tree blocks are coming together and once I’ve sewn my way through the rainbow should have a Birch Tree baby quilt.  I’m enjoying using itty bitty scraps for these blocks.

There are a lot of inspirational scrappy and rainbow quilty pictures to enjoy at Saturday’s Rainbow Scrap Challenge, have a look.
