X Block Swap

The X Block Swap top is done--now to machine quilt in the ditch and hand quilt in the larger triangles.  I really like how this came out.  Had to stop myself from adding a wide border on the outside--that's so late 20th century, not how this one would have been done in the late 1800's.

  2. The thumbnail photo in the DWM list really stood out. The somber colors are elegant! I appreciate your being true to the historic design with a narrow border.
