    Default Second Chance orphan block quilt

    I have always wanted to make an orphan quilt but did not know how to start. Then I found this great tutorial, and I was off and running.

    It was a lot of fun and gave a great feeling of satisfaction to be able to use these test and orphan blocks. I still have enough to start on a second quilt. I named the quilt Second Chance.

    Thank you for this. I have always had trouble knowing what to do with extra or test blocks. Now I'll have a direction!

    I have one ready to quilt, but you have way more orphans than me! Very pretty.
