Well Klue I can tell you I won't be making a full size quilt with mine but I do have a long table and I will start with a really long table runner then we will see. Maybe a wall hanging. I could also do some couch runners to go along the back of my two couches. Will have to see..........hmmm....Just ideas at this stage LOL

i was thinking about it last night and i thought a cute little tote with a block on it would be really nice.
you could use it as a gift bag for someone and put a candle or bubble bath inside and then they'd have a really nice christmas tote for the holidays.

yup, with a DJ block in the center. i switched tote bags yesterday and the one i'm using now is only about 8 inches high.
i though how great would a 4.5 inch block look right in the center.

It's darling fabric, but IMHO it doesn't work with the rules that have been laid out.
Thanks!

The one thing I do know is that I will NOT be giving away any of my xmas DJ blocks. They are going to be part of my special collection of quilts/blocks. The fact that you all are making them make them so special to me!!
I never heard back - were those circles appliqued? Looks like it...and they are so perfect!!
