Going to an Orphan Block Party

I have this Growing Pile of orphan Blocks that I and my friends, 

Because a pile this big has help,

have contributed to over the last 3-4 months

I have made 3 quilts from this pile and it's not getting any smaller

so It's time for drastic measures

it's time to pick a block size and quilt everything in that section


Then see whats left over 

I did a gypsy quilt and I have more than plenty to do more but 

I want to eat down the pile first

Because I have a another trick up my sleeve 

to knock down the pile where,

I started with the biggest block in the pile 


I also had 6 Dresden plate blocks and these 9 patches 

that sort of matched, kinda sorta

I also have this Ginormous bag of 6.5" strip blocks

We will be seeing a lot of these babies

so now we have a 43" square I need to make it x60

so 10" of what?

I tried random blocks but they looked terrible, Hmmmm

whadoido?

    Very cool! I love the curved corners. I could see using some 6” triangle in square blocks all around as the outside border. And I’d probably use the tan-beige-gold scheme like the checkerboard area, to tie in and calm down after the busy strip blocks. But that might require making blocks!
