Default White Elephant blocks

Couple of years ago, our quilt club exchanges fat quarters or other fabric to exchange at a Christmas party. I chose a baggie of 17 blocks. I was new to quilting so I was hoping to learn some piecing techniques. I brought these out recently and sewed them together, quilted it and now have a nice table topper. Hope you enjoy!

Nice use of "found" squares. Your quilting design is lovely!

I need to do the same with some blocks that were gifted to me. Thanks for the inspiration.
