Each month we each made seven 4" blocks and traded. I think we did it for about 8 months, because I ended up with 56 blocks. I know I made more than 8, and I remember someone not finishing all of theirs, but that's about it.
For inspiration, we used this book:

It is a fascinating collection of work. We had amazing applique and embroidery...
Precious patchwork...
Some paper piecing...
Some blocks were a somber sign of the times...
Some were just plain funny...
But they all remind me of a stage in my quilting life - the fabric leftovers from what I happened to be working on, the blocks we all made together at a retreat, and the people who have inspired me along the way. I can't wait to see them united at last.
What do your UFOs remind you of?
