PHD Challenge! First Finish!

This is a quilt that was created from a swap on the HGTV Quilting and Needlework Forum.  My good friend Brandy hosted this Friendship Star Siggy Block Swap in 2007.  I am proud now to say that this UFO is finished and ready to display in my quilting studio!  It has a wonderful story to tell!  One of the blocks is from Australia and another one is from New Zealand... the remaining blocks are from all across the USA!!
I had a few blocks left over from the front so I added them to my backing.

my blocks from that swap are still sewn into a top without borders yet.... ((photo of it at the top of my blog for a few years now))

Maybe... I'll one day get a few more siggy stars to add to it b/c I want mine a little longer... and then I can quilt it ;)

Yours looks so different using sashing. The color of your fabric is a perfect! Great job!

Love from Texas! ~bonnie
