ScrapHappy Saturday - Glorious Green

I love the start of a new month.  Something about putting away the last dregs of a color and pulling out a new bundle is a little like Christmas.  Even though the month has just started, I already have  a few green blocks done.  Looking at them, it is amazing how much range there is already.  I see emerald and olive along with lime.  I almost wish I had divided green into light and dark for my quilt.  Too late now though, maybe next time?
How is your green month going so far?  Use the linky below to share your plans and progress.

No green sewing this week, but we drove to Louisville yesterday for Lego KidsFest. It was fun- had a lot of the same stuff as the Discovery Center in Chicago.

Yeah green - my second largest stash/scrap color! And perfect for spring - wish we would see some green soon - winter has lasted too long here.

Green Grow the Lilacs--soon I hope!! I am trying a new block this month (as per my own challenge!!) and it has little, itty-bitty points AAAARGH! They kinda look like cacti--maybe! Don't know how many I'll be able to wrangle through Helga (my Viking ! sewing machine). Hugs Julierose

this is great motivation to get somethings finished...thank you!!! And green makes me think of Ireland, where I will be in 61 days.

I love that we are using green this month. Your blocks look great!

Angie said...

I agree with you about the range of greens - there are so many and they don't always play well together! I'm going to try to burn through some of my dark greens from years gone by.
