It's the first of March and this month's color is Orange! This morning I pieced some 16 patch blocks and cut some 5" tumblers and 2.5" squares.
The orange knitted dishcloth in the picture was my first attempt to change yarn colors within a knitted project. I need to practice that trick, however I think my knitted dishcloths look better using only one color of yarn.
To see what others made with their orange scraps this week, go here.

I LIKE that orange! It just looks happy, doesn't it?
Another lovely bunch of projects under the rainbow!
Yummy oranges. (I know oranges - I've got 2 trees full. Gotta get the ladder out, and the courage stoked and get them picked off pretty soon or I'll be sharing space with a bunch of bees.)
Yours are great. Did you make strips and sew them together and then cut across for the 16 patches? Or do you place each square? Inquiring minds would like to know.

Beautiful mix here, as usual, Sheila! Dishcloth looks great too!
I love your orange blocks. I must pull out the orange quilt I started last year and finish it.
Love the oranges!
Very nice your orange blocks!!
Pretty blocks and lots of future quilts started. I have not figured out switching yarn.....kudo's to you for trying all these new knitting things and figuring them out.
Oh my...I love your orange fabrics!
Nice bunch of blocks. Your knitted dish cloth is really nice. How fun to make it in Orange!
Off to a great start with orange this month! Even a dishcloth to match.
Yummy looking oranges! I think an orange dishcloth is just what my kitchen needs - wonder if I can find any orange cotton yarn? Thanks for the inspiration!
Great Oranges. Good to get those 16 patches done early this month.
Great idea to add in some knitting. Everything looks happy and cheerful.
Looking good! I need to get started on mine for this month.
Your orange blocks are looking great! I downloaded a dishcloth pattern this week so I can play with making some of those for gifts :*)
A yummy orange collection...love the dishcloth!
I am looking forward to my 16-patch blocks after seeing your pretty little jewels. Orange is such a refreshing color.
Great blocks for your rainbow project. I do love the orange.
Oh wow! Bright and beautiful!
