Well, I finally finished the quilt with the blocks from the Block Exchange that I did with Life's Little Threads Block Exchange. I must say that one of the blocks was a real challenge for me. It wasn't a complicated block, but I had to lay it out so that my mind could figure out how to piece it together. It was the Granny Square block. But I am glad I participated with these wonderful ladies. There were even some young quilters in the mix. I am so happy with the blocks that they made for my challenge block. I chose the Five Sided Wonky Log Cabin block for my block. I love scrappy (as if you couldn't tell by my blog post name) and not having an exact pattern for a block can be a challenge. The block itself is cut at 12 1/2 inches & finishes at 12 inches. I added sashing and a 6 inch border. I also used left over binding from my previous project. I only had to make one extra block in order to complete this layout. I love this quilt! It finished at approximately 70" x 84". The lime green borders & backing are from cuddle flannel. Can't wait to see some of the other finished quilts from this group.
