tiny pieces

I finished 4 tiny wonky stars in green for the rainbow scrap challenge this month. The top left square is a study in a senior moment. As I am webbing the block together in 9 patch style, I get to the bottom right, and, I can't find the last 2 inch white square I need. I look around, knowing I cut 8 squares before I started. where did it go? I cut another one. It wasn't until I pressed the block, that I realized I had used it in the center instead of a green square. LOL


I found a new little pattern, I wanted to try for a rainbow quilt project. I used 2 inch squares for lime sherbet.


Interesting way to piece the cone. And, then, it is trimmed. I have an accuquilt die I want to try for the cone next time.


I wasn't happy with the way the sherbet fit into the cone, but realized I had not read that I needed different size flippy corners on the bottom of the sherbet.



I don't feel like I did very much rainbow sewing this month. I must have been distracted. Oh, I did finish birch trees, a rainbow project from last year.

    Loved your senior moment with the star - don't we all have those?! The ice cream cones look like a fun idea, too!

    I've been making those little stars for several years and I purposely make some like that senior moment! I've been thinking of using some of them as centers for wonky log cabins.

    I love the ice cream cones. I may have to try some. You can't have all the fun!
