I had made some orange Twinkler Blocks earlier in the week and yesterday made one 49 Patch block using already cut 1.5” orange squares from the stash I have in a tin. I sewed the small orange squares together Leader and Ender style in between working on some Red blocks for the Sunshine Guild. As both orange and red are always in short supply I have really turned over my stash thoroughly looking for scraps.
Here’s my orange total from yesterday:
I started making Twinkler Blocks last year and I now have 36 Twinkler Blocks, my 4 orange blocks bringing my orange total to 7.
The only orange scraps I have left are a few 1.5” strings, all fairly short length and a few 1.5” squares. I may make another orange 49 Patch block.

Looks like you really made good use of those orange scraps. I think it took me a couple of years of scraps to get enough Twinklers for a quilt. I like them as they are quick and easy. And I always love a postage stamp block. It's always fun to see what may show up in such a small piece of fabric.
