What cute scrap busters. Wish I was a little less OCD and could do scrappies!

Wow! What a great idea to take orphan blocks for the center of your log cabin blocks. The quilts look great and you sure put some smiles on their faces.

I think you are very creative! Both quilts are super nice. Who knows, they may become quilters also.

You sure gave me a good idea to use my orphan squares. These are great quilts. You did an awesome job making the twins happy. I have twin gg and they love quilts.

A co-work commissioned these two for her twin nieces. It is a variation on the court house steps. I took orphan squares(blocks) and started each square with them. Then I added on to each side. No specific colours just oh so random. The recipients were delighted.

Like the idea of starting with an orphan block and building around that. I have a large box of orphans that have been given to me. Good way to put them to use. What wonderful ideas we all have on the Board!
