Old Chinwag Craft Board Block Swap 2007

Sometime in early 2007, the Craft Board quilters got together and organised a Block Swap. We had to design and prepare enough blocks to make a quilt for ourselves, provide the first block completed and send the package on to the other crafty people in the swap.
We each completed a block in everyone's set.
My quilt was for my grandsons' bedroom in my home. I set a theme of teddy bears and boy's toys.
Most of these quilts have been finished for some time....... but.... I could not make a decision on how to do mine until recently.
I learned so much in that year and can't thank everyone who was involved enough! My applique skills are much improved.
So, thank you ♥

I have also sewn the labels of the blockmakers onto the back of the quilt, behind the relevant blocks.
I made mine into a quillow, a quilt that folds into a pillow, so one of the blocks is on the back of the quilt and when folded into it, becomes a pillow.
My 3 yo grandaughter looked at it and said "Gran, that is brilliant" and that is a good recommendation, so I have to thank everyone who was involved.

What Indigorose said!  :^O LIKE Hi Indigo! Maybe it is 3 dimensional applique? Is it a quilt or a wall hanging AZ?

It will be a wall hanging...or maybe a throw for the sofa. 🙂

Check out this clever idea for organizing a sewing space! Create a quilting table by elevating two tables with risers, and use the space underneath for labeled plastic storage drawer units for organizing your fabric stash.

Maybe if we use our stash that would eliminate any storage problems?:^O
