Wanted to share this with all of my fellow swappers. After the swaps are done, we have all these little pieces of fabric. I have decided what to do with them. I did a tutorial for this block under X Marks the Spot under "Tutorials" section. I plan on just making miles and miles of strips and make another quilt out of all my little leftovers.

not too fond of the border -- it needs to be a bit more planned. Next one!

What a terrific idea! To use leftovers. I may make a scrappy Irish chain.

I love this idea...I have been saving mine for something. I think this was it! And I have scraps from 3 different booms!

finished first top! and I have to say I really love it, thanks to you all :thumbup: ..There is one square that was still out and that will go on the back in the center...
Now I have to wait for my last 10 blocks to come in. I suspect I will not get them done as quickly!

For some reason this fabric returned pretty fast. I will not have much time in one more month for personal projects so am trying to keep current. (fat chance lol).

this is going in my master bedroom..yum

Wow! That turned out fabulous :) The borders really added a unique touch. Good for you for being on top of swap blocks :thumbup:

I was trying to pull out the white in the middle of the quilt to the outsides. Hopefully, I think it works.

I received block yesterday! Thank you! Love it!

I am working on f8's but very slowly. Sorry all...I will try to get all blocks done by deadline. I will post as soon as some are ready to be mailed. It's taking me 2-3 days to finish a darn block when i can whip at least 3 blocks in a day but DH hurt his back...so I am juggling my time with DH, house, animals and contractors.

I did mail 2 blocks out but forgot who I mailed to...I forgot to log that down!*sigh*.

Will keep everyone posted.
