nannae05 Shared stars - As a member of a quilt guilde, there are always block swaps and chances to win them. I did a block and put it in the lot, and I acutally won the lot!! Took me awhile to put it together, but once I finally found the fabrics to go with it I think it came together nicely. I machine pieced it and quilted it on a long arm machine. Once again, I meandered the quilting. If you are ever in a swap and win the blocks, do try to put them together. You might find out that you like the quilt afterall. My wish is that I have inspired you to finish even the "swap" blocks you get.
