Yellow

... is the colour for June with the Rainbow Scrap Challenge(RSC), so I decided to start with the Birch Tree quilt block.
 

The pattern for this cute little block is by Amanda Jean Nyberg who blogs at CrazyMom Quilts, she is also the author a new book called No Scrap Left Behind.  I just love the brightness of the yellow in the background fabric which is hand-dyed from Colorways by Vicki Welsh.  I have two more pieces of Vicki’s hand-dyed fabric waiting for future colours/months of the RSC.
 

While sewing my Birch Tree blocks I also made a few yellow leaders and enders which I’m collecting for a future Postage Stamp quilt.

A fun and relaxing Friday evening of quilting, a great way for me to end a week of work.

On Friday the only decision I need to make is bottle or glass.
