My quilt guild just finished our most recent block of the month program.
Here is how our block of the month program worked. One of our members selected the block patterns and organized one or two different blocks for us each to make every month. Usually she supplied a background fabric and recommendations of fabrics to use. She collected all the blocks.
When we had made the same number of blocks as there are members in the program, we each selected the set of blocks that we wanted. We drew numbers to determine our turn for selecting.
I selected the Broken Dishes blocks made from batiks. The block pattern looks like this.
Here is a photo of the actual quilt blocks.
So, what do I do with my blocks? I used MyWebQuilter.com to come up with possible design.
By setting the broken dishes quilt blocks with a small sash with a colored square at the sash intersections and at the center of each block, the quilt would have an added circle pattern. I have a yard or two of the background fabric used for all the blocks that could be used for the sashing.
Does anyone else have other suggestions on how to use my Broken Dishes quilt blocks?

hi Amber, I found your website and blog after you left a comment on my blog post review of Quilter's Assistant. My blog is www.contemporaryquiltart.org I would be interested in doing a profile on your website in the near future. The timing is awkward right now because in two days we pack up our home in Arizona as we are moving out of state. So I would not be near my computer to do any detailed post for at least 10 days. I could just do my own review, but if you have something specific you would like me to mention, I will do that. I could include some of your finished quilts and a photo. As an example, if you return to my blog, you can look at some previous posts I have done about artists, Kathy McNeil earlier in July for one. If you could respond on Sunday, that is my only day before we move. Gina Delorenzi
