I didn't assemble any blocks but I have used some of the components already. I sewed the narrow rectangles together end to end and made a narrow boarder for another project. I also sewed the flying geese together end to end for a boarder and that worked out great. I really like how Bonnie had us press the FG, I had never done that before, it made the pieces easy to sew together and really reduced the bulk in the point. Even though I won't make Bonnie's quilt, the pieces won't go to waste.
