Orphans no more

Another part of using up what I have it using up orphan blocks. Here are two that I made into little wall quilts this week. The first one was made with a block that had been gifted to me, and the second was made with the leftover house block I had from my house quilt. I'm really happy with both of them, and happy that there are now two less orphan blocks in my stash! :0)
