    I participated in a block swap with several other ladies recently. When I received the blocks, I selected this design to make. I added to the stash and some nice ladies sent me a couple more blocks. The quilt is lap sized right now, however, if I get really ambition, I will and another row all around to make it a full size quilt for my bed. What do you think? Should I go for bigger is better or just finish this one off? One block even came from Australia!

    Top as it is right now

    That's so pretty. I also like the pops of color in the centers of the fans. If you have enough to go bigger, it would look awesome on a bed.
