Over two years ago when I really started blogging and quilting heavy I came across Block Swap Adventures. I have made many wonderful blocks. Visited with some great people and one grouch. I have collected 27 blocks in the wonky star pattern. I love each one of them. Some I received from some very cool far away places. Sticking to my plan of finishing some stuff I broke out all of the blocks and made them into two small quilts. They are so fun!!
I am not sure yet what I am going to be doing with them. I was thinking about donating them but I might just keep these for the house. I am going to be shopping tomorrow for fun fabric to add one more border. I want to find some very bright colorful fabric. Then use black for the binding. So then I can add these to the very tall pile of finished tops.

Oh, these are special and you should keep them.
ReplyDeleteCool! I haven't put any of my Swap Adventure blocks together. I had to step out for half of last year during the move and all, so I don't have as many as you, but still - should have quite a handfull. I had to chuckle at the "one grouch" part. . . hehe
