Today I got a little distracted though as I was sorting through my scrap bin. I'm trying to iron and organize scraps by color and it got me to thinking about a quilt technique that I've been wanting to try out for a long while now. I've wanted to try making a mosaic scrap quilt. What I really want is to make one with all the colors of the rainbow in it. I thought I would start with yellow as it seemed to be one of the harder colors of which to get enough scraps . I've decided to make each block 15 inches and then with at least 10 different colors make two of each block. I wasn't quite prepared for how fiddly this block would be, but I think I'll get better at it as I make a few more...

it is great, love all the different prints. I want to make the bottled rainbow quilt that is similar to this but I need to get all the solids & more scraps before I start. I wondered how finicky it would be with the small pieces in between.
I am sure yours will be beautiful.
I LOVE it. Want to try it myself. Need to talk to you. Can you email my gmail? It looks like the new DS prints are showing up. Need to know what you want and how much ?
I love your block, it's inspiring, and one of these days I'm going to give something like this a shot!
love the fabric with the chickens! so cute!
I too have been wanting to try this style, but have not the time right now. As our summer is coming to an end we are trying to fill our days with as much as possible! Keep up the great work. I am sure I will need these ideas soon!
