    Wow! It is amazing how well those orphan blocks went together. They made a beautiful quilt.

    Looks like all those orphan blocks found a good home.
    Great quilt

    Justthe ticket! If you can do it, I think I can try one too. I do have so many orphan blocks from swaps, that were suppose to match, and didn't, and can't put them in a quilt together, so will do the mismatch stitch together and MAKE them all look good. I hate wasting these blocks, and I think that it is perfect for a charity quilt. Super job, I love your quilt.

    Great idea and yours look like they belong together. Will have to keep this in mind. Whenever I get some of mine out they just don't seem to work together. Lots of work in them so it's good to get something useful. Another one to add to my ever-growing bucket list. LOL
