Scrappy Sprouts

Another of my carry-over projects (started in 2020) for RSC is scrappy sprouts. At the end of January, I arranged all my blocks on my display floor to get an idea of what I was doing. Unfortunately I didn't think to take a picture.

I decided my dark blocks weren't dark enough so that's what I'll be making this year.

I've made 4 deep dark teal blocks.

Here is a photo of all of my teal blocks. 

I did wonder if they would blend together if they were made a year apart. I think they do, I also think they'll work well any of the other colors.

I lost sleep over this quilt the night I pieced these blocks. I woke up during the night and started planning how I was going to arrange all the blocks. 

Then I started thinking about the flowers for the top of the sprouts. Not all of the sprout quilts I've seen have added flowers but I want to. I've seen Dresden or sunflowers but I think I'm going to go with the flower design by Krista of poppyprint. Isn't that flower lovely?

I remember viewing someone's sprout quilt that had clouds and a sun in the sky, very pretty. I don't remember who it was and I didn't bookmark the post. I do remember clicking on the post from the RSC linkup.

I don't think I'm going to do clouds and the sun though, the sprouts and flowers are enough for me.
