Barbara - It looks wonderful - what a fun way to use the special blocks! I like the solid borders as well....

Me thinks the sorting hats must have had something to do with all the noisy HSTs!!!

yup - mine havn't even been sewn together yet - but i keep hearing all kinds of happy whisperings and giggles from the area in my living room where the HST's are waiting on the design wall

Hey, even if they didn't know each other to start with, I bet they do by now, and they are all chatting away nineteen to the dozen

Your quilt is beautiful Barbara. Love how you put "people" together so they could chat.

Barbara, Thanks for posting your quilt picture. It turned out nicely!!

Love your quilt Barbara, That is the one I started out making but I screwed up and didn't put them in the right order but love what I got.
Now every time I look at it I am going to hear all these voices talking to one another. Like Margo said, a very loud quilt.

LOL!! That's gonna be a noisy quilt!! It looks great Barbara!!

oh wow barbara, super medallion - love it
and yes i agree - it is a wonderfully small world

This is the cover quilt from Edyta's book, Friendship Triangles. I'm conducting a swap at my LQS so had to get this done. It only uses 420 HST, I've got about 300 left for another idea--several of you have great designs going!

I went totally scrappy except where each quadrant comes together--on those outside edges I tried to find units very similar in color, though not the exact same fabric, to create "geese" coming out from the center in all four corners. The photo doesn't show that very well but it is apparent looking at the quilt.

I placed the signed blocks in the center or near by--Ricky and Alex didn't play well with Margo and Edyta. I also placed a few "friends" I know, like Dana and JoJo, close by Margo so they can talk between themselves.

Dear SoTTT;

I love them all! Where to begin ? ? Amazing how many different designs everyone can come up with & still be so beautiful! How creative everyone is I haven’t even begun but you are all so inspirational I will now! Gonna get them out & start one of my quadrants today! As soon as the tree guys stop all their noise and hanging off from our roof It is the yelling at each other they do that makes me so nervous! I am afraid one of them is gonna fall out of the tree with a saw!
Oh my the Buggers, just came on the Kathy Lee & Hoda show, opps I mean the Duggar Family; are on with their 30 plus kids promoting their new book. Makes you want to buy it just to make sure all their kids get feed!

Anyway, hopefully I can post something I have accomplished by this weekend!

Crocus and Cheryl-- Love the designs you have made with your HSTs. They are so beautiful. I hope I can start playing this weekend (four days off work!)

Crocus -
You've got a winner there! I struggle with scrappy as well. For some reason I like everyone else' scrappy better than my own!
Wendy

crocus--I really like the looks of that design. I will have to get my batiks out and see if I have enough to do something like that.
