Collection/Mosaic

Our first Bee Sewcial @beesewcial prompt of the year came from Leanne @shecanquilt, with Collection/Mosaic, and she provided a pin board for inspiration. She requested saturated colors, and a very dark background if one was used at all. I used my cookbook collection as inspiration for my first block, which turned out approximately (slightly larger) 12" x 16".


Next, my Aurifil thread collection was used as inspiration, and I created this block, which if trimmed square, would be 11".


What a fun prompt! And I enjoyed playing with the colorful scraps already on my cutting board. Can't beat that!
