Nine Patch exchange.
Our guild had a 5inch Nine Patch exchange from September 2011 until June 2012. I ended up in two groups. There were 10 people in each group so each month I got 20 patches. These are the 4 quilts I have made from the 200plus squares and only had 3 squars left over. The first quilt the squares ended up to be only 4.75inches but the other three, after some resewing, are 5 inches. The first quilt I gave to the guild for our comfortquilt program.

70767Thanks for posting these, it has inspired me to get to sewing my fabric into quilts!
1215Your quilts are all great! I am especially taken with #3! Love it! Great job!!
16302I love your quilts. They are sew beautiful. You are an awesome quilter - you actually get things done. Yep very productive. I wish I could say that about myself. When I first joined our quilt guild the ladies participated in the 5in blocks then after 4 years they went to the 2 1/2 strips. Because I was such a new quilter I donated all my blocks to the LINUS group because, I could not figure out how to use them. Now I have all kinds of books that show how easy it is to use them. I managed to make a number of lasagna quilts though.
