Friendship Block Quilt

Over the winter I was "persuaded" by another guild member to do the Friendship Block swap. You select your colorway and your "friend" makes you two blocks a month. The third month you receive the remaining material and assemble a quilt top. At our next Yankee Quilters guild meeting on June 14th you reveal your quilt top and find out who your "friend" is that made your blocks. Check back in for the big reveal!

Originally I wanted blue and white because I had some blocks from http://www.stitchinheaven.com/ that I wanted to incorporate into the quilt. These blocks were only 8 inches and not a pure white like the blocks above. SOOOOO this meant I had to change the design.

On Wednesday's I attend a quilt class at http://www.emmasquiltcupboard.com/ where my teacher Cathy Bodio came up with this design. We decided to add red sashing. I still need to add the border which is really going to make it pop! I hope to find some time today to cut the borders. Pics to follow!
