circles

Here is a close-up view of the finished Circle quilt, blocks made by Beyond the Sunset (BTS) members, which I blogged about previously (click here to see my blocks).


Once the blocks were collected, Liz Broussard took over the piecing together the variety of circle blocks.  We had given her some of the scraps from making our blocks which she put to good use in the sashing.  Once the top was pieced, Liz quilted it.


Time to play "I Spy" and see if you can identify my block(s) in the finished quilt.  How many of mine were used?  This quilt raised money for our guild, the Quilt Guild of Greater Houston (QGGH), when it was sold during our QGGH Quilt Show and Auction this past summer.  One of our own Beyond the Sunset members had the winning bid!  Susanne, if you ever tire of owning this quilt, just let me know, as I'm positive it will find a happy home with me!
 

Stay tuned for photos of what Pat Marek did with the many unused Circle blocks.  Apparently, we were quite an ambitious group and turned in far more than Liz could use in a single quilt, which is a good thing, don't you think?
