There was still some time for stitching even with all the errands. The second Squared Away block is finished.

The 1930 reproductions in the newest block are left over from a quilt along back in 2007. I bought a lot more of the reproduction fabrics than I needed, so these fabrics have shown up in at least 2 other quilts. The medium blue floral used in the cross is a long time favorite. I still have several big scraps left of it, so it will likely make an appearance in a few more scrappy projects before it's all used up.
I've got a start on the third and final blue Squared Away block for this month, but forgot to get any pictures. Hopefully, I can show off all three next week, along with a start on the blocks for February.
You can find more blue scrappy blocks over at Soscrappy. Linking up with Oh Scrap on Sunday.
Nice progress on your blocks. Both of them have quite a different flavor. All part of the fun with scrap quilts.
