I also played with my Maple Leaf blocks a little bit this week. I made a purple one, and then thought since I am in the nine patch mode, it might be fun to make a nine patch alternate block to go along with it.
These really are very pretty purple fabrics, but I have a hard time photographing purple, for some reason!
After making these, I decided to make some more partners to go with my other Maple Leaf blocks.
This could be fun! What have you been up to this week? For more rainbow inspiration, check out ScrapHappy Saturday at SoScrappy!
Your scrap jars quilt is looking great. I also love your maple leaf and nine patch blocks. These will make a wonderful quilt.
ReplyDeleteThanks for introducing me to SJQ. I've made 3 purple blocks already! My favorite part about your setting is the 9-patch formed by the sashing. I like the 9Ps with your maple leaves.
ReplyDeleteYou're off to a good start for 2017!
ReplyDeleteLike the addition of the nine patch alternate blocks!!
ReplyDeleteLove the scrap jar stars! Adding those 9-patch blocks to the maple leaves is a fantastic idea. The maple leaf block is one of my favorites.
ReplyDeleteYour SJS turned out SEW beautifully!! Looking forward to seeing your Maple Leaf and 9-Patch come along during 2017. Have fun with those scraps!!
ReplyDeleteYour scrap jar stars are just darling! I also like the combination of maple leafs and nine patches -- looks like a fun start to a new quilt!
ReplyDeleteI like the 9 patches with the leaves too.
ReplyDeleteYou are definitely hitting them out of the park with your RSC quilts. They all look so great!
ReplyDeleteI love your idea of mixing the 9-patch blocks with the maple leaves. This is going to be awesome! And I can’t wait to see your finished Scrap Jar Stars!! (will write soon)..... xo
ReplyDeleteyour scrap jar quilt is fantastic! and I love your leaves and 9s!
ReplyDeleteIt does look like fun. The borders always seem to be a hang up, but you are almost there.
ReplyDeleteLove those ScrapJar Stars! (And I'm almost certain I'll have a purple SJS made by the end of the month, because what's one more project at this point?)
ReplyDeleteAnd that's a great call to be making the nine patches along with the maple leaves. I think you'll have all kinds of fun playing with those at the end of the year!
Scrap Jar Stars are lookin' good! Cute idea with the Maple Leaf blocks & 9 patches.
ReplyDeleteThe Scrap Jar Stars are looking wonderful!
ReplyDeleteI love the leaf and patches idea as well :)
It looks amazing!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteCan't believe your scrap jar stars are almost a quilt! You go, girl!
ReplyDeleteI like those 9 patches and maple leaf combinations. Could be a very fun combo. Congrats on getting your Jar Stars to the finished flimsy stage, it's looking great. I have problems photographing purple as well, it always looks blue unless I'm in the sunlight.
ReplyDeleteIt's a beautiful almost quilt top :) Love the Scrap Jar Stars pattern which is perfect for the RSC.
ReplyDeleteOh wow, I think you have a good thing going with the maple leaves and the 9-patch. I like the way they are looking. Your jar stars are outstanding!
ReplyDeleteYour scrap jar stars are dazzling. Beautiful!!!
ReplyDeleteMy purple blocks didn't photograph right, either. Weird. I really like the nine patches with the maple leaves! Great combo.
