    One of the blocks on the right has an orange and pink floral...maybe you could find something like that for the border..........it would make a cute retro baby quilt!!
    oops.......I didn't see you had finished it, but I see we think alike!!

    Now it is a treasure. You nailed it with the free motion quilting!!!!! Excellent. Are you able to wave it in front of the person who tossed the blocks so they can be sad they didn't turn them into a treasure? I love what you did. I think they should hold together fine with all the fmq holding the weight of the quilt. Good job!

    I sent her the pics and she really liked it. I think many long-time quilters have blocks etc. that they've been staring at for ages and simply just get sick of looking at them. I'm so glad she decided to give them to me, rather than chucking them.
