While organizing my sewing room; I only came across a couple of blocks that I had not done anything with. I decided to practice my FMQ and bind them. The tulip block I gave to my SIL for her birthday. She just beamed and was thrilled, showing it off to everyone. The folded star block I used as a table topper in my living room.

Although my FMQ has improved, I still need to practice tons. Forgotten blocks are great for this. I just wanted to share and pass on the "tip" if you can really call it that for anyone who had not considered doing this.
