Finally finished the top with the blocks I won in Aug 2012. Love the colors!!!! Wanted to make it alittle bigger,so I added several borders (adapted from the book, “Borders” by Judy Laquidara) and it ended up being 105xo98,approx. Didn’t think it was going to be that big, but I LOVE it!!! Now to get to the quilting!!! (I probably will have someone do it on their longarm.) Hope I did your blocks proud!!! Also hoping to be found blockworthy *fingers crossed* so some of those birds will fly to my house!!!! Lol!!!!!-2013-04-26_17-14-59_170

    I love your great big quilt with it’s beautiful borders. As for wanting to win … whenever I read a comment like yours, I always feel compelled to respond that now that you know how fast the birds go together, you can always make some of your own (or set up an exchange with your friends if you want more variety). I suspect everyone is sick of me saying it, but it’s true 😉

    This is one of my favorite blocks and I’ve made a quilt of my own with this block. Your border is perfect.
