That is gorgeous! Can't believe someone let those wonderful blocks go. You did a beautiful rescue of them. Great job!

Had to take off a nip of the points on one block!! But, the quilt is so busy, being a sampler quilt, no one will ever notice, but the quilt police!! And, I don't belong to them anyhow!!! Anyway, here is the finished product...tried to get it in the sunlight from the door, so you could see these beautiful blocks. Just wonder why the quilter gave up on this one?? Sometimes, bad health or life just gets in the way. Another Christmas gift DONE!!

WOW ..Did you get lucky….These blocks are beautiful……You did a great job putting them together.
