That's one way to use orphan blocks! Gotta show this to husband tonight. He'll get a kick out of it.

Our local quilt guild "Santiam Scrappers" made a quilted car cover also for use in parades. It has been seen in Sisters, Oregon quilt show. Theirs was made from donated "orphan" blocks too.

I believe it was made for the quilt shows only and stored the rest of the year.
