Middle bit agrees, Little bit says - eh Maybe
I said - I want to get it in this blog post so stand up and let me take a photo!!
What do you think?

Perfection is not a worry!
I can use them - they way I have been setting them is pretty dang forgiving

Wow! You are going to need an extra long August to get all of those blocks into quilt tops! Very cool!
SEW many reader blocks!!! Get busy making those quilt tops, Alycia.
WOW just WOW!! That's a LOTTA BLOCKS!! Are you the only one piecing tops with all these beauties? That's a GREAT use of a panel. I might give that a whirl (and yes, it probably does need a blue, light or dark!).
You are welcome to come visit any time, but no igloo for you to stay in ;-)
It is lovely and cool compared to Colorado: 50's to 70's!

It's such fun to see the huge variety of blue star fabrics used for these blocks. Locally I don't believe any of our shops carry blue fabric with stars. It's a sad lack. Thanks for sharing all the blocks and for adding details about each.
I love seeing the blocks coming in! :)
There will be a lot of QoV's to honor Sue. BTW, it may be cooler in Alaska now, but, less than a month ago my son was complaining about the 90 degree temps (no AC in the houses up there).
What great blocks. Thanks for linking up with Elm Street Quilts One Monthly Goal and good luck with your project!
Wow! I don't think this top needs a border at all. It looks great as-is! Looking forward to all the creative layouts that will come out of this!
Love seeing all the different fabrics that come together to make the same project!.. Your August is going to be extremely busy!
Wow, that's fabulous! Sue is dancing with joy at all the quilts being made in her memory - though I'm sure she's thinking about those who will receive them! What a great idea this was, Alycia!
I echo the WOW!
Looks like you have a lot of quilts to get put together! Wonderful!
And I would only add a border if you need to make it bigger. But then again I'm not a person who usually adds borders.
Wow! That is a lot of flags! I can't wait to see your progress.
Wow, what a great bunch of blocks!
This is all fantastic.
11 years old?!? You just brought the biggest smile to my face! Sometimes it seems like the world has become an ugly place, and then I read about an 11-year-old making blocks for a QoV project... There are plenty of good people in this world!!!
This is so heartwarming I can hardly see straight! Of course, I should not be surprised what people around the world can do when they are motivated! Enjoy the rest of your week!
That's quite a collection of blocks. Great idea making quilts. Good luck. Thanks for linking up with Thank Goodness It's Finished Friday (TGIFF).
This is so wonderful to see. I bet they keep coming!
