guess I better start thinking what block I would like made. What I really need to do is put all the blocks together that I have gotten from the last 2 swaps.

[ATTACH=CONFIG]504567[/ATTACH]Happy New Year to everyone! I haven't checked in for awhile. My NE resolution is to finish my UFO's!!! I actually made a list and, not counting tops to be quilted, I have 16. That's a lot for me!

Anyway, I've finished two so far and am working away at the blocks from this Boom. I have rows sewn together so far. My original plan was to sew the rows together but matching the blocks is not working out well. I'm thinking of a thin row of sashing between each row. Thoughts??

I'd love to see everyone else's progress.

Sashing between the blocks would be pretty. Maybe green or blue would work.

I decided to 'go for broke' and sew them together as is. My concern was matching the points of blocks that were - uh hem - not the same size.
I'll post a picture once my phone decides to actually 'send' the pic to my email, etc.

I think a small, 2 1/2" border all in the snow white and that will be it.

Jane,

This is my Christmas Sampler Quilt that I made with blocks from this Boom and Boom 13 blocks. I also have a second throw I am finishing from blocks made from both groups as well. This is a king quilt, so I sashed with 4 inch white on white to match block background. I will sash the Christmas throw with 3 inch inch WOW.

Thanks for swapping with me everyone! Will post pics of second quilt when finished.
Thanks Bee

Finally! After 4 attempts to upload my picture they all landed in my email.

Anyway, here it is.

This looks great! Really love the scrappy look of the blocks.
