This year in my guild ( Pieceable Friends) I hosted a Block Robin - Sort of a Round robin, but you chose a block you wanted Quilters to make, and we sent the boxes around. At the end - you have a box of Blocks.
I chose Scrappy ones - because I am on a mission to use Them All!!!!
Our Original boxes came back to us last Tuesday - and here is what was in my box!! * Squeeee***'
The ones in the bottom right --- have HORSE SHOES in them!!!
Aren't they just a gorgeous mix of color!!!
I then added all the scrappies I had made:
It uses 90 of the 93 blocks and I have starter seeds for the next scrappy one!! - K walked in and said - Oh I LOVE that - so in my world... its a go!!!
Now I just need to row it, and make sure the doggies don't wag their tails to close to blow a block off the wall!!!
Find me at all these places:

Just fantastic!
Wow that is a LOT of blocks! LOL on the doggies wagging their tails too close - I get it! And my cats love to put their paws on the design wall and stretch and pull down blocks.
K has great taste. I love it too. Fabulous layout for all those colors.
Don't hide the mud room, it gives a slice of reality to complement the beautiful quilt!

I love it! What a fun quilt! My guild is doing the same thing but it is called a "Pizza box swap" because they were originally going to be in pizza boxes. we ended up using plastic containers. We will be done in December I believe.
What an awesome layout! I like your back to the wall mantra!
Great blocks! I like to arrange rainbows diagonally too. Your diagonally cluster of colors is cool... :)
I love that!
The final layout had me talking out loud to the computer screen - it's a winner!
I love the idea of a Block Robin for guild and had to share the idea with our guild president right away. Your blocks are so fun!!
Amazing! What a fun swap!
Oh what fun!
I think even with a design wall, it would take me forever to come up with that layout. I can't think of a better way to lay out those blocks. Thanks for sharing.
