Birthday block and cutting fabric

I am happy to report that I am still on track with the birthday blocks. I didn't follow the exact instructions for the cutting which asks for squares, instead I kept strips where possible 

Only I sub cut one too small when slicing them so had to redo one part in the end

But the block came together quite quickly in the end.

I also spent some time at the week-end cutting the background fabric and more of the main fabric for the Mystery quilt scrap galore. I still have about 15 pieces to cut, nearly there!

And finally I printed all 50+ pages of the paper pattern for the Modern City Scape quilt along.
