I think an all canning jar quilt swap would be fun...
Love the sun bonnet sue with 1930's idea...
I see a lot of farm, jungle, etc themes.... but never an ocean theme..... whales, dolphins, seahorse etc. I would like that...
boys themes..... Space stuff..... pirates......

See, that's the problem. I enjoy playing with you guys way tooooooooo much.

I am a sucker for just about anything. For example, I thought I didn't need chickens or farm animals. And then...you guys post blocks that I can't resisit...and tell jokes that make me roll on the floor laughing...and then I sign up...you know the rest.

I am into "period" these days: Traditional Civil War, 30s fabrics and blocks.

I wouldn't be able to resist a scrappy star; mason jar; funky house pets (like what the dogs, cats, fish, birds and hamsters are up to when no one is home) or color themed like red/white/blue, red/white, black/yellow, etc.

So you must have had fun doing my boom block then Fraew, it being a 30s fabric and all. Also, did you sign up for the civil war block swap? I think i saw your name there.

I vowed no more sewing swaps and y'all just have the most cute ideas! I vote for every swap y'all tempt me with you also finish one of my UFO's! haHaHa

UFOs can be done girl, the swaps just help to get the UFO done. That is what motivates me to finish mine.

I am lucky that I get to play with both of my favorites for the boom...yours and Annaquilts (patriotic CW). Notice how I haven't done them yet? I had to research blocks for them...yes really I did. And yes to the CW 1-2-3. Can't resisit I told ya.

I have been really intriqued with Civil war and 1930's too. I know I would not be able to resist a Sun Bonnet Sue with 1930 fabrics. It has been on my wish list for as long as I quilt. Some how I always missed them. I love all the other ideas mentioned too and the boy swaps. I do know the timing of a swap is important for me. right now I want to be sure I have adequate time to complete my swap commitments. With Nov. and Dec. around the corner I could not have a swap like Sun Bonnet Sue ending till well into 2013. Wow!

Ms Grace

Lots of great ideas!!

Ms Grace

Ok... I have just finished sorting all the blocks.
We had 12 swappers & a total of 222 blocks!!!!
It would be hard for me to pick a favorite block, they are all great.

Hope to get these in the mail by the end of the week.

QuilterMomma

Wow, that is a lot of blocks. I am sure we will all get different ones back. Oh thank you ms grace for being the block shuffler. It is better than the alternative those animals are leaving there.
