Here is my green postage panel. Finishing this block always feels wonderful. Making it is a bit like getting old though. You start off making two patches and that process feels like it takes for ever. Then come the four patches that come quicker and are nice cause they nestle together. Then by the time I'm to the sixteen patches, my errors are compounding and things don't fit as well as I'd like. But progress speeds up. Then at that point everything goes at lightening speed, except for needing to use the seam ripper a couple of times. And then its done.
And here are the green and white rectangles. These are a lot of fun too, and I look forward to putting these all together. So far I have made six panels each month so hopefully I won't have to play catch-up at the end of the year.

So many happy tiny bits of green. Love those postage stamps so much!
Wow, you have a huge assortment of greens!
I really like both of these blocks. I look forward to seeing them in a rainbow of colors.
Sally, Have you made 16-patch blocks by rows of four and pressing opposite on the rows. Then they nest together very well.
I love the postage stamp blocks - but that's a WHOLE BUNCH of pieces to sew together!!
What a wonderful array of Spring GREEN scraps!!
Omigosh, what a lovely bunch of itty bitty greens!
Oh, what lovely wee bits o’ green! Great analogy to aging. Maybe someday I’ll get brave enough to tackle so many.little.seams.
