I recently found a quilt in my MIL's closet she made with her sewing friends years ago and they each did a block and signed them. I think it's just a fun thing for memories, if you want. I see mine as a border or a backing on a quilt I've made from blocks traded through the QuiltBoard or like my mystery quilt done with all you here on the train. Just ideas. I think SharonB posted some finished projects people have done in the past.
Mine will be intermixed with the siggie blocks and other sqs to make a momento QB quilt of the participating QB members.. I love the idea since I for one am on the QB ALOT.. There's room for others to join too.. if anyone is interested..
