The flowers for the Scrappy Sprouts quilt are pieced. I took the pictures outside so the colors are more true looking.
Here is the first arrangement.
Or they could arranged like this.
I'll probably move them around a dozen times before this quilt is finished.I wasn't sure what to use for the green flower so I used this coleus as my inspiration. It has been my surprise plant for the summer. I had no idea this would grow to be so huge, I love it!
The flower pattern came from Preeti. She provided the pattern as part of her 2023 positivity quilt sew along. In an earlier post I had provided a link to the flower but that link no longer works. I knew when I saw the flower it would be perfect for my scrappy sprouts. Thank you Preeti!
The next step is to fill space with neutrals to make all the columns the same height.Here is a link to the pattern for Scrappy Sprouts.

You reminded me! I have a project box with Sprout blocks! They definitely need to become a quilt!
