Green Day

This month's rainbow scraps are green, and I've made my two projects -- the "knot my block" for a rainbow quilt:
and the big "boxed in" baby quilt -- this measures 36" x 45":
I participated again in a birthday block swap with a small yahoo group, and all of my blocks arrived -- it's the Rocky Mountain Puzzle in green and brown batiks, and I think the blocks are quite lovely!

I need to get to work on my Cotton Robin border now...

So many great greens. Knot my block is great, such a great way to use up tiny bits.

What wonderful blocks.

Knot my block is a great block! I'm seeing a few of them around the place and find it very appealing.
Love the baby quilt! So simple yet so effective.
Your Rocky Mountain Puzzle looks wonderful too.
