This month Angela at Soscrappy is giving sampler blocks to be made in orange for the Rainbow Scrap Sampler quilt. These are 6" sampler blocks, surrounded by a Sawtooth Star, and in the final quilt separated by an Irish Chain type of block echoing the colours of the adjacent Sawtooth Star blocks.
This is the star I made this week:

I'm sure I had three, but one must have slipped under the sewing machine cabinet!
This week I shall try to make the third orange star (which Angela posted earlier this week), and the orange and red alternate blocks.
I made little progress in assembling my maple leaves quilt, but I just have to sew one long seam to connect the last two rows. Then I can move onto the quilting.

Happy sewing

Pretty colours in your orange block for this week Marly. Love that you have a perfect colour match with the nasturtium. That is what it is, isn't it?
Your blocks are very pretty.
Great orange progress. Looks like you are almost ready for the new color.
Love the dark blue with the orange. Looking forward to seeing yours all assembled.
That block is a real standout. You're doing great. Go for the finish on the autumn leaves!.
Love your star, but that small ninepath are fun!! Lovely fabrics. Have a nice sunday!!
I like the orange and blue combination. A great block. Very little patch blocks to make. Oh how fun.
Love your blocks. Looking forward to seeing your quilts come together.
That blue and orange block is a knockout!
Still basking in an orange glow - absolutely. Love all your oranges.
they're so tiny you probably sneezed and it flew away
Still loving the orange and blue. I also adore the whimsy of the little boys, running in a few of the squares. Nice touch.
I just love how your orange blocks look with that blue background. Your quilt is going to be an absolute knockout!
I really like the block center that Angela gave for that star. I'm thinking it might be a fun little block to make for next year's RSC...
I love how the children in the orange print add to the movement of the pinwheel!
I really like your background fabric on your rainbow scraps. It's a beautiful block.
