Drawer full of Xtra Blocks
#13
I second this! I picked up the book at a used book store a couple of months ago . . . it's definitely on my list of favorite quilt books now. Outstanding ideas and inspiring pictures. If you can, find a copy at a store or the library and check it out. :thumbup: I have a big stack of blocks from various swaps over the last few years and this book will be so helpful in putting them together in successful ways.

I have a lot of grocery bags that I like to use and hate to advertise for everyone that I have to buy the bags from, so I put a 12 in block on each side, over the advertising, and keep a bunch in the car all the time for the shopping trips. I especially love the bright green bags with some of my "bright" quilt squares.
