oh, i was trying to clean out my sewing room. but i found a whole lot of siggie blocks in a plastic tub. i thought i'd sewn together the last of them into a wall hanging. they must have been a different size. rats. i thought i was done. these i found are 5 1/2 inches. since they are signed i can't give them away. that would break my heart.
also found sunbonnet Sues and scottie dog blocks signed. sigh! will it ever end. I hope not!!! i don't do swaps anymore but love the blocks i have, so i'll keep on plugging. :shock: |
Someday you will find the perfect use for them. Maybe a little here and a little there.
|
If you have enough, why not put them all into one quilt for yourself?
|
I was just thinking that the siggies could be made into larger blocks with strips added around. I have a lovely wall quilt of some on point and another coming. the top is done, just need to quilt it. but larger blocks for a larger quilt interests me more this time. i don't want to add triangles. i'm seeing strips. so far anyway.
I wish i could make quilts for my granddtrs but my DIL doesn't like "blankies" so the scottie dogs and Sues are for my home. |

What are siggie blocks? Don't know your language yet. Some things I can figure out but don't know this one.
|
can you share a photo of your block collection? how about a fun asymmetrical layout with all the signature blocks (siggys for those not familiar) and the other swap blocks.. add one unifying color to the group.

I am intrigued on how people incorporate different sized blocks together :D Please show us when you decide on a layout :D:D:D
