I worked on a few more low volume (neutral) mile a minute
blocks for the Rainbow Scrap Challenge.
I actually have a big project for this month’s One Monthly Goal (OMG),
however I needed a diversion and I love making Mile a Minute blocks so I sewed
up 12 in a few stolen moments this week.
I thought I was making 9, however when I laid them out there were 12 –
bonus.
I added a pastel dash of colour in some.
After a couple of weeks, and 21 new blocks my scrap bag still
seems just as full, perhaps there’s a quilt in that bag.
Last night I got diverted again and started 50 more of these
blocks which will give me 80 in total when I’m finished. Should be enough for a quilt top.

I really like your Mile a Minute blocks in the neutrals - and the little pop of color in each one is wonderful! They will make a really fun quilt!
ReplyDeleteThose blocks are coming along fast for you. Thanks for the lesson, I'm enjoying making the MaM blocks.
ReplyDeleteYour neutral blocks look great. You may just have a whole quilt in that Scrap bag. Lol!
ReplyDeleteI'm loving this month's light neutrals palette - your mile a minute blocks are wonderful!
ReplyDeletePotato Chips, Edith??? You just MIGHT have gone overboard on the LIGHT NEUTRALS (but they are just lovely!!)
ReplyDeleteLove your blocks they are very nice. I have more than one of those never ending bags of scraps too! Hopefully you will get a lovely quilt out of it.
ReplyDeleteIt is strange how our scrap bags seem to grow even when we are using so many for scrap projects!
ReplyDeleteToo funny! Think you will have enough to make that many? It will be a lovely neutral quilt.
ReplyDeleteScraps never do seem to actually diminish, do they? We keep trying, they keep multiplying!
ReplyDeleteMile a minute can be so addictive. Hopefully the bag will get emptier someday soon.
