Ladies,
I just want to take a moment to remind you all of a couple of things (these are just gentle reminders and my duty as hostess not aimed at any one person in particular )
1). Please remember to measure your blocks before sending them home. They should be 12.5" square. Not 13" not 11.25" but 12.5".
2). If someone asks for you to use their fabric a specific way or to not use specific colors, please abide by their wishes.
3). We have FOUR months to make blocks. There is no need to rush to get them done in two weeks. Sometimes rushing through looses the thought put in to the perfect block or color or even the correct size. This swap is designed to expand your block base, your color comforts and your friends
4). Any questions, complaints or anything of the sort...please PM me.
Hugs
April

Recently several members asked for black. I asked for black on Boom 8 and got quite a variety for "black". It turned out great anyhow, but I expected black to be ...black.
My Bee and the folks at City Quilter think Michael Miller makes the best black. To keep things simple and to have scraps that match, that is what I am using. Unless the block calls for a softer black or a black blender. Just an observation;
use your own good judgement !!
