Green Scrappy Stars

This week was a good time to catch up with some of my projects for the Rainbow Scrap Challenge. I've been cutting strips to make Rail Fence blocks in greens, our color of the month. I also finished three green Jabberwocky blocks.


The block design is called "Jabberwocky." It is a Judy Martin pattern from The Block Book. I believe the book is out of print, but available at a variety of on-line sources. The finished size of these blocks will be 10.25".


Here are all three colors we have used so far this year. I've enjoyed making these blocks. They are challenging, but very satisfying to finish.

Be sure to check out all of the wonderful scrappy projects at the Rainbow Scrap Challenge every Saturday, and at Oh Scrap! over at Quilting is more fun than Housework on Sunday.


Happy quilting everyone!

    Those are such pretty blocks! I love the way the different shades of color make them look three dimensional!

    Those Jabberwocky blocks are gorgeous. I can understand that they might be challenging. Judy Martin likes a good challenge. Have a great weekend!

    I just left an anonymous comment saying how three-dimensional these blocks look and how challenging they look because of the partial seams, but then realized that perhaps they are y-seams. They are beautiful--very gem-like.
