RSC 15: Scrap Jar Stars in Repro Greens

This week's Rainbow Scrap Challenge project was to make two Scrap Jar Stars in reproduction green fabrics.  I have really enjoyed making these stars using a distinctly "un-modern" approach to color and fabric!

And since the design wall was empty, I pinned up all the previous Scrap Jar Stars to admire.

I was planning to make the usual Scrap Jar Star pattern, with sashing and cornerstones to create a secondary 9 patch where the blocks meet.  After looking at the blocks arranged this way, though, I might just do a straight  set without sashing and enjoy the secondary 4 patches at the intersections.  Time and inspiration will tell!

There's lots more green, scrappy inspiration at Angela's Soscrappy blog today, so join us in celebrating scrappy quilts!
