May have posted these photos previously ... but they are 21"
square, each took almost a week to make and were destined
for a 12 block project (each difficult)...so abandoned! Any suggestions on how to use them?

Hmmm...do you just have the two completed? Maybe get through a few more and do a wall hanging?

Pillows would work too. They would be big but comfy.

I can imagine them in a wooden picture frame.

They are stunning!!!!! Quilting them & framing them is an excellent idea. I would make 1 more because I like things in odd numbers but IMO these are too pretty to hide on a table top under stuff.

Gosh if you don't want them :-) I see pillows in my head for these blocks, but a table cloth would be wonderful also.

They are sooo beautiful and well done! I see that they are labor intensive but I can only imagine how beautiful 12 of these would be together. If you had a buddy to cheer you on and encourage you to make the other 10 would that help? Your piecing is so nice! Good luck what ever you decide.
