that magnolia block is a beautiful way to showcase blocks !
but depends on how big the blocks are. above 6" or so would not look right. if you sash, flower or leaf fabric would look great. what a treasure !!

this may sound dumb, but what is a magnolia block?

Be sure and label the quilts as to their history. Your kids will appreciate that somewhere down the line! These are gorgeous.

Make some solid color sashing with vines and leaves.

What a great find! I agree that sashing them in a light green would be very pretty.

Very pretty, nice work on all of the flowers. My favorite is the Iris block, so beautiful!

If they are cured and won't run I probably would sash and qult, but I do like the idea of Rose L who said she would frame them and hang them on the wall. Great idea and they wouldn't ge wet and ruined. I could picture them in every room.
