    I finally figured out a plan to finish this group of 20 year old pieced blocks. At first I thought the pink batik was too bright but I already had some so went ahead. Then it needed a border so I went thru my stash and found the green with little dots of pink and burgundy and other colors in the pieced blocks.

    Finally finished with a 20 year old project and it feels so liberating. I am working my way thru old UFOs.

    Very nice, glad you finished it. I have some that you reminded me I should finish, about 50 years old that I got at a estate sale.

    So beautiful. These beauties need to come out of hiding and take center stage. Good job! Be sure to show us when they are all quilted:)

    Your finished UFO is just fabulous. I love all the colors and great job in putting it together. Stunning is the word for this quilt.
