what a timely post! Just yesterday I was looking at a box full of UFOs and orphans trying to decide whether to chuck them or finally do something with it. Thanks for the link, you quilt came out great!

Indeed, it is a great way to use orphan blocks and make a quilt to love or be loved.

Thanks so much for posting this. Beautiful quilt!
I, like others, did not know how to go about putting odd sized blocks together. I have a mountain or them!
So I see by your pictures that you enlarge the blocks that you do have by adding borders/other blocks so that they are essentially the same size and then put them together. LOVE IT!
