This quilt is meant to use up scraps. So far the pattern is super easy. A lot of quilters are doing a controlled scrappy version. I considered doing that but decided that would be too taxing right now. I have a lot on my design wall this month!
Charlotte released her first clue in Stars Around the Corner last week. This was a labor intensive step for me as I had not finished all the cutting last fall, and I had nothing suitable for a background, so I had to go out and buy something. This goes against everything I believe about scrap quilts, but I truly had nothing that would work. I ended up buying 3 yards from the sale bolts at my LQS. The rest of this quilt will be random scraps from my stash.
I've also committed to the Rainbow Scrap Challenge. This month's color is blue.
I'm hoping to get a few more scrappy blue squares done this month.

What a nice collection of projects.
You've been busy. I love those blue blocks.
Lots of beautiful blocks in a rainbow of colors. Looks like you've got a great start on using up those scraps.
