I think I might have made all of them the pattern calls for, but I really like it. I may have to make more.

I really like that violet and the emerald green. I don&#8217;t use a lot of green in my quilts, so that is odd. I might like this block, because I get to use big amounts of that Shaggy Chrysanthemum print.&nbsp; That is definitely a favorite even thought those autumn colors aren&#8217;t my normal colors.<\/p>\n<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-59997 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-thumbnail'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/20230813_162929_wm-sm\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/20230813_162929_wm-sm-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"Scrappy Celebration, E5\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-60052\" srcset=\"https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/20230813_162929_wm-sm-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/20230813_162929_wm-sm-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/20230813_162929_wm-sm-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/20230813_162929_wm-sm.jpg 802w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 150px) 85vw, 150px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-60052'>\n\t\t\t\tScrappy Celebration, E5\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/20230813_181413_wm-sm\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/20230813_181413_wm-sm-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"Scrappy Celebration, D3\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-60055\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-60055'>\n\t\t\t\tScrappy Celebration, D3\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/20230813_172412_wm-sm\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/20230813_172412_wm-sm-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"Scrappy Celebration, G6\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-60054\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-60054'>\n\t\t\t\tScrappy Celebration, G6\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p>Yes, I am making the blocks that are the easiest to get as many of them done as possible.
