New project - Christa's quiltalong

I said I wasn't going to start a new project until I had finished up the old projects....but I just had to have a wee project so I joined Christa's Simple Strips quiltalong.  http://weallsew.com/simple-strips-quilt-along-part-1-materials-list-fabric-cutting/ It's an easy pattern but it feels good to do a beginner project!  I used a jelly roll of Kona pastels plus some gray fabric and here's the top:
I think it should be called Post-it Notes!  It's 48x60 so a real quickie quilt, then back to old projects, I'll work on my pineapple blocks...

after I posted this I realized I had sewn the blocks horizontal and I wanted them to be vertical.   So after a few minor changes, here is my top!
