rainbow maple leaves

This has been one of those weeks

Our Rainbow scrap challenge color for February is sea green. I kept a look out for this color while I was shopping. One minute I see it as green and the next blue. Remember these wreaths from the 80s?

I had plenty of 2 1/2 inch squares but I needed strips to cut 1/2 square triangles.


I webbed them together first. And then the rows


I just love them and they look so great with the other blocks I have done in pastels.
I am hoping to can vegetable soup this weekend. I found top round BOGOF. Seems an odd sale for meat, but it was affordable.

    RSC is such a great way to clean up some of our scraps isn't it. Such pretty leaves you have.

    That does seem like an odd sale for meat, but sounds like a winning sale too. Cute leaves! Enjoy your vegetable soup--I think I'm jealous!

    Your maple leaves are so pretty in the scrappy turquoises! I'm making maple leaves, too, but didn't get to them this week. Seeing yours has inspired me!

    Who said Maple leaves have to be red? They are so pretty in aqua.

    Lovely leaf blocks. It will be a sweet quilt. So cold here that soup would hit the spot.

    Mmmmm, homemade vegetable soup! YUM!!!

    I love your little blocks. I have such a small amount of the color of the month. I have literally gone through my entire stash and came up with a few (maybe) eight inch squares of teal and aqua! (I'm headed for the thrift store to see if there is some other pieces I can pick up. Is that cheating?
