Autumn Tints Blocks

I received these beauties in the mail today. They are from a swap I was in. There are 18 blocks total. I’m not exactly sure what I am going to do with them. I could make 5 more and make a lap quilt for the living room or den. Or make a wall hanging out of them. I don’t think I want to make anything bigger than a lap quilt. I just have too many projects as it is. It is almost big enough to be a table cloth. LOL.

What do you think I should do? Please leave me some advice.

    I’d throw a border around it and make it into a table cloth. It looks very nice on the table.

    Hi I love that as a table cloth would make for a great fall one. Mavie

    Hi! What a gorgeous display of colour!!! Yummy! I’d make a lap quilt. I think these strips would make a great quilt to snuggle under :o) If you don’t feel like making any more - how about a wide border with some “fancy” quilting? …just an idea…

    Best of luck making up your mind! And have fun :o)

    Hello! Thank you for coming to visit my blog, and all your lovely comments! The colors are beautiful in those blocks. I do think it looks lovely as a tablecloth, but it would be wonderful as a lap quilt. The colors are so warm and inviting!

    I think it would make a wonderful tablecloth. Add a solid border or two and you’re good to go.
