Each month we will choose new swap partners. You can join or drop out at any time. Just please let me know if you can not participate in any one month.

If for any reason you can not follow through on a quilt block to your partner please let me know as soon as possible so I may provide a substitute. Thanks!!

My cut down method makes it easy to make accurate blocks(units) that will make accurate quilt blocks.

TEMPLATES

You will need templates. I will get them out to anyone who needs them as soon as I can. Let me know as soon as possible so I have time to get them out to you. It can take up to 2 weeks to get them to Canada. International swappers are welcome but can also take longer to mail.

Most of my designs are made with 6 blocks to a row and 6 rows in the quilt block. I refer to this as a 6 x 6 grid. Or some are made with a 4 x 4 grid. There may be a few on my website that are a 3 x 3 grid, Not all of my designs on my website show the layout. So if you need a layout for a design just let me know and I will provide one.
Please choose one you can make into a 12 1/2" without having to add a border to get the right size.

Size of templates you will need:
For a 12 ˝” unfinished quilt block

For a 6 x 6 grid
2 ˝” for making-- HSTs / Bostons / Kansas Dugouts / Drunkard’s Path
for the Star Points and Wings Blocks you will also need the paper templates.
