At our quilt guild meeting last night, I did something I'd never done before - I won the BOM! We have 2 BOMs at each meeting, and I'd never even won one before. But last night I won both the Beginners and the Advanced block sets. I was overwhelmed and thrilled.
Now the reality has set in - what shall I do with these beauties? One set is a flower, and there are 6 or 7 of those 10 inch blocks. The other set is a scrappy green block, and there are about a dozen of them. I'm thinking that I will split the scrappy green ones, and use them as a border around the flowers. I may add a flower block or two, depending on layout. What do you think?
But it needs something more, so I'm thinking about adding some flying geese to the mix, maybe as sashing, or as another border. I am so looking forward to seeing what this becomes - it will be my first scrappy quilt.
