Scrap buster #68 Arrowed in quilt block with magic numbers

If you don’t have scraps on adding tape, you can substitute with some bold design fabric cut to strips. It will make all blocks cohesive and add something your eye can follow. Make a quilt, cushion cover or maybe a patchwork tote? Happy sewing!
