RSC Week 12 - GREEN Flimsy and Pieced Backing

 It has been another busy GREEN week. 

My goal this month has been to use as much green fabric from my stash as possible, and I think I have succeeded, IMO. Last week I had made 48 scrappy Churn Dash blocks for the green scrappy quilt and made a couple of crumb blocks for the pieced backing (here). 

A flimsy!!!

To get a better variety of green, I pulled out what I had of 5" squares in green. Not that it was that many, but fabric used is a good thing, isn't it? :) 

It didn't take long piecing together the blocks. What took time was the pieced backing. Quite some brainwork getting the pieces to fit. 

I'm happy to say lots of bits, pieces and 'ugly' green have gone into the backing. 

The batting was delivered yesterday, guess what I'm going to do next week!

 The crumb blocks are made from 'table scraps'.

Together with the batting I got yesterday, I also got thread to finish more items; trivets and placemats (previous post). Please note I DID NOT buy anything I didn't need, EXCEPT two quilt magazines! LOL  Did I need the magazines?? Yes, for inspiration! :) 

Did you notice I haven't said anything about the weather? It did improve and this week we have had some sunny days and 'of course' hot and way too humid for me. We are heading towards the 'cold' season and the nights and slightly cooler, which is a good sign! 

Our coffee trees (we have four trees) are thriving in the hot and humid weather condition, lots of coffee beans (actually coffee berries) this season.
