Quilt Top #23 "Christmas In July"

We each made a block, then my name was drawn and I got all of them. There was a second pile of blocks, I can't remember if they were from an exchange or whether I won those as well. I decided to sew all the blocks together without sashing. That was a challenge, I had to use the "stretch and sew" method to join them together. They were supposed to be 12 1/2" unfinished, but there were great variations in size. Hopefully, it'll all flatten out once it's quilted. :)
