Digging through the orphan blocks, I found.........
 

these 6 Hourglass panels, 12 x 15.5, that I started 5 years ago! So I squared them up, sewed them together and added a border! Voila! A quick baby quilt! After I got the border on, I found another pile of the same blocks that is enough for an identical quilt top the same size! It will be 5 panels so I'll have to make the 6th panel but it's still another quick baby quilt!

Most of the fabrics I used in this quilt were vintage and home dec. I love the way it turned out and especially that it was done in 2 days' time!

I hope you are inspired and will dig through your orphan blocks too! You know sometimes it does pay to wait awhile before putting a quilt together! Our styles change and we gain experience we didn't have back then! So you just never know what you'll come up with looking through those orphan blocks again! :shock:

Love your colors!

really nice! I love the idea of using those orphan blocks . they are so much more beautiful in a quilt than by themselves.

way to use them up. I have a drawer full wanting on something like this.

:thumbup:Glad your orphans found a good home. Cute quilt.

Very bright and cheerful. Love what you did with the borders.

nicely done

Looking good!
