I have a few blocks that I am working on being finished but the other ones have been in soaking in Oxyclean and denture tablets. Yes, I googled it. They are almost all white so most of the yellowing stains are out. They look terrific.

OMG, the soaking has turned the yellow white, so I have 12 blocks that are completely clean and waiting for the other 4 blocks, so I have 16 all together. now I will need to figure out a pattern to piece them together. Thinking, thinking, thinking, so if anyone else has any options please feel free to help.

Oh, I have some of those blocks!!! They are part of what we inherited from mom-in-law and are now part of my someday stash. You know, I'll work on them someday when I retire from my day job. Thanks for showing them...they are beautiful.

you know, if you ever want to get rid of them, I can always add them to my quilt....LOL

Oh, wow, how wonderful that those you received coordinated so well with your mother's. They are beautiful. Can't wait to see your finished quilt. I know it will be beautiful.

I am just wondering how to piece them. I mean+, sashing or alternate quilt blocks???? I was thinking it might be cute to find the solid colored fabrics that are in the applique and make something like piano key sashing. I don't want it to be to busy but since I am keeping this one, I want it to be what I want.
