My Red and White Swap quilt all finished.
Except that I still need to make a label, because those beautiful red squares came from all over the world: 37 US States, Canada, Australia, Holland, Scotland, Malaysia, Slovakia, Israel, United Kingdom and Thailand! I want to remember them all in the years to come.
And remember this little goof-up block? I took some of your suggestions and gave it a place of honor on the back. It’s a keeper and makes me smile.
Also, last January, I joined Anne Marie’s Nine Patch Challenge…
…and my quilt is a nine-patch.
The deadline is September 1st so I made it by a little over a week. Whew! Thanks Anne Marie.

It's as beautiful as I imagined it would be! I'm tempted to follow suite, this is a perfect pattern for these beautiful reds, it's hard to imagine them any other way now...you've inspired me!
:-}pokey
Just beautiful! I love the white stars against the red.
I just finished piecing my red and white squares too using disappearing 9 patch with a white as the center square so it becomes the little corner square of each d9p block. It's a gift for my parents, so I won't be able to show pictures until after Christmas! It's killing me not being able to show it off too!
Yours turned out just lovely!
