Patchwork: Quilt-a-long 2017 - Souvenir of Friendship

The Fat Quarter Shop are hosting a Quilt-a-long in aid of Make a Wish. Block patterns are released on 15th of each month in 2017 (suggested $5 donation).

The first block is called Souvenir of Friendship and is relatively easy to construct once you have got past the idea that the pieces are insanely tiny (1 1/2 inch square anyone?). Having said that, it is an ideal block for using up scraps, which is exactly what I have done. If you are astute, you will recognise that this fabric has been repurposed from this skirt.

There are twelve patterns in total, and you make six blocks of each. Some quilters are using different fabrics for each of their six blocks, but I wanted to keep the same pattern per block. I am hoping to add in some lime greens and greys into the mix.
