Green Rainbow Scrap Challenge Blocks--2025 --post three

Green selvage squares
Goal number six on my May list was to make the green blocks for the RainBow Scrap Challenge. Angela at SoScrappy, picked green as the color for May. THIS month, I wasn't going to wait until the last day to get the blocks sewn!

Block ready to be stitched
The small challenge I had was that I thought that I had made four sets of selvage squares; but, in fact, I had sewn only three. It was back to the selvage bag to make another set of four squares. I forgot to take a photo of the selvages.

Green blocks complete
While I was concerned that the green background would blend with the green selvages, the background worked great. There are enough varieties of green to be able to get a contrast. Now. . .if I can get the June blocks sewn at least as quickly next month. My fingers are crossed!

I'm looking forward to seeing these blocks come together with the other colours. It looks so fantastic in my head. Well done, Terry. ;^)

I have been collecting selvage scraps. Would love to see how you store yours. Do you sort them in colors? Love to see you using them! Thanks for sharing.
