I would probably go with a light cream and any color. The cream background could unify a delicious selection of scrappy blocks. I am starting back on my "Scrappy Trails" top and the unifying fabric is the cream background tone on tone.

The question is, do you enjoy the swap? If so, continue on, maybe opt out if yu feel overwhelmed. I am just now getting back into this after life happened. I too managed to get behind and have sent blocks to those assigned me that I hadn't sent on time. I hope they will let me know when they recieve the blocks I sent. If not, oh well, I have fulfilled my end. I am stockpiling a variety of blocks just for those partners I may get who haven't a specific theme or color. That way, if my assigned partner doesn't have time to contact me with specifics, I can send his/her block as best it happens. WilliP

February block swap
Reminder: I will be posting the list of February partners sometime tonight in the GROUP section. I will also be adding a February discussion line for participants to post notes that are specifically related to the Feb. swap (when blocks are sent, received, comments, etc).I will also be working on a list of participants and their block themes and if they would like to do extra swaps. Please let me know by PM if you would like to do extra swaps.
Thanks for your participation and cooperation.

Sorry I haven't been on much, I havent been feeling to well, but I'm starting to get back into things. I've already sent the top in I used yellow and purple with applique fish. So thanks for the offer, wish I would of seen it sooner.
I like this swap and the others, I want to continue swapping, just know that sometimes my back gives me fits, and sometimes hard to get out of bed so I don't except to go to the bathroom. But I haven't let any one down getting there blocks to them, I don't think I've been late on this swap yet...And can't wait to get started on Feburary ...
The blocks being sent around are awesome great job!

I have posted the February list of parters in the Group section.
Sorry - it's not how I wanted it to look but maybe someday I will figure out how to make tables there. If someone can help me figure it out, I would be most appreciative.
Enjoy the February swap!!
