I'm trying to remember. The brown/tan print set I got a few weeks ago. The set I posted along with it (kind of looks like a pin wheel) is purples and then the light color on the outside is a blue with pink/purple streaks - those were all purchased at Big Sky Quilts here in Great Falls. I'm not sure if they have an online store. The very first set, the cream/tan background print I bought more than a year ago at The Quilting Hen in Carter, MT. They sell online so you've got a chance they still have some available. Around here, they've got the biggest selection of batiks.

I just send a pm to tracibug to sign up since I bought a big pile of batiks. I am also willing to do the final swap if tracibug needs me to help out. July and August are very low key months for me and I have nothing going on. I am signed up and have the fabrics and all I need to do is pick out block patterns. Picking block designs is almost as much fun to me as the piecing.

Thank-you Tracibug for organizing this block swap. I really enjoy Batiks fabric and look forward to all the different block patterns. Please sign me up for 2 groups.

Looking good folks! Glad some of you have more time for sewing than I do right now. Can't even seem to get into my studio for more than a few minutes lately. Being busy is great up to a point, but I'm feeling quilting withdrawal!

Woo hoo Linda! Batiks are so pretty that even more basic blocks look stunning. It will be fun to get a nice big group of quilt board buddies swapping. I plan to do all 6 sets and hope to get atleast one block from people participating. I am looking forward to seeing everyones blocks. This is so much fun. I skipped out on the 10 1/2 inch block swap because of the size. There were some pretty blocks in there too, actually all of them were great.

Oooh yeah... and if anyone is interested in swapping batik 2.5" strips send me a note... then put 6 strips in a bag and send those with your blocks. I will swap those out as well, up to ten bags.
