I have been planning on a twin-size bed quilt made from 16 large oak leaf block: 12 monthly blocks made from the color-of-the-month for the Rainbow Scrap challenge and 4 more that I'd figure out at the end of the year.
This month's color choice of brown, gray and black gave me the opportunity to make a couple of those extra blocks. I made the scrappy brown block last weekend, and this morning, added the gray and black blocks.
And now there are 12 big leaf blocks on my wall.

This is going to be a beautiful quilt! All the colors play together so very well in this pattern. Are you planning on using a sashing between the blocks? It would look really cool with maple leaf corner stones in the sashing...or could you make mini oak leaves for the corner stones? Oh, the amazing possibilities!! Can't wait to see what you do with them!
On their own the neutrals may not sing, but as part of the collection-- I really think they are fabulous. What a fun quilt this will be.
Ooh, the blocks are simply lovely.
Don't they all look just right together, I have loved this block right off.
The different colors on the design wall look great. the grey ones are just what it needs.......love them!

Beautiful collection!
Love both your leaf and feather projects! THey are beautiful.
Oh, they do blend in so well. Looks like another award winning quilt in the making!
I love the colored leaves! I would have to have more color to balance the black and gray., though. You will make it all come together in the end!
These look wonderful! I love leaves and trees.
Frankly, when I saw those wonderful two blocks in my e-mail, all I could think was what a gorgeous quilt those colors would make!
I love this! so pretty!
