First my 16 patch blocks - I have 12 total now, and that meets my goal to make six in each color combination for each month.
Every time I put them up on my design wall (or lay them out on the floor upstairs by the window to get better light!) I see a different design possibility. I'm sure that will happen every month as I add new colors!
Of course, I had to make one completely pink 16 patch!
And this one is another favorite, with its tiny pink flowers and low volume stars for the background fabric.
I also added to my stash of four patches, and began combining them to make bigger blocks by adding 4 1/2 inch squares to each 4 1/2 inch four patch. These larger blocks measure 8 1/2 inches.
There are still lots more four patches to work with in the pinks and browns...
And in the blues and purples, too!
I'll just keep working on these and see what happens!
I'll be linking up with So Scrappy for Scrap Happy Saturday, and looking forward to seeing what everyone else has been working on this week!

looks great! and those 16 patches- definitely my favorite!
Projects like this are so much fun -- they evolve right in front of our eyes.
RSC can be so addictive. I have to pace myself so I don't get carried away each month. Your blocks are looking fabulous!
all the 16 patch blocks are looking good together. I like also the double 4 patch you have. Beautiful blocks. Have a great weekend.
Four patches and 16 patches are wonderful. Great fabric variety.
Both types of blocks are looking fine together and it will be fun to see the results as more colors are added. Keep up the good work!
These are looking great!
The 16 patch and double 4 patch both look rather vintage. I like that!
Love the last picture! Lots of quilty goodness!!
All this patchwork is looking so pretty - especially love the all pink one! I am always drawn to "patches" - 4, 9, 16 - the possibilities are really endless. Looking forward to your final design choice!
I think as the colors and months go by, you're going to have more and more fun playing with those 16patches! (And I'll have vicarious fun watching you do it!)
Your double 4patches are going to be interesting, too. I've been making 4patches as leader/enders with no plan in mind, so I love seeing what other people do with them. 8)
Your blocks all look great...the possibilities really are endless!
Great scrappy blocks. You'll have some colorful quilts by the end of the year.
Looking good!
Looking good! Love your blocks. This RSC is addictive : )
