    I made this blocks several years back and did not know how to put them together. As I wrote earlier, at some point I wanted to give them away. Then I saw this quilt on the web (see attachedment) and that gave me idea how to piece it together.
    It is called NorthWinds from Marsha McClosky book.
    It took me about two weeks to piece it and 3 nights for the borders

    this is Marshas quilt, above is mine with dark borders
