For the siggy block- I'm making a little rail fence block for everyone, so you don't have to worry. :) I just wanted to do something cool. I hope! :D
I've gotten a whole bunch of F8's, just have to put a check on my lists of whos I have. I'm in 2 groups, and want to make sure that I'm posting to the right thread!

Another almost-victim -- gotta love the good ole' P,O. -- fabric is fine, thanks to a heavy plastic bag.
I have done well over 200 block swaps, and this is my very first wrecked package, so I guess those odds aren't too bad!

Just pulled fabric for yours, then read this posting, and will go back to the fabric pile!

PLEASE feel free to use what ever you think will go best with the fabric I send you.Just no solids, pastels or batiks please. I had sent out about 10 different pieces of fabric. Looking at Judy's block makes me think I'd like a "scrappier" looking quilt than just cream for the background.
I'm going to make a new quilt for my bed with the blocks. ;-)

Pointy tips are better, lines are straighter!!!! I was going to use all of one type of block for all 37 but I've decided to keep trying new paper pieced blocks (first on my fabric, then on your's!). By the end of this I'll have enough blocks for more than one quilt. haha. Thanks for helping me find this new place in quilting!
