Either one would be gorgeous! One of the prints in my scrappy block is sorta the creamsicle orange.

All of these blocks are beautiful :!: :!: :!: My piecing skills with half square triangles needs to improve before I am brave enough to participate in a swap of this caliber.
Sure do like looking though ;) ;) ;)

sapdoggie, this is the first time I've tried this block and really is quit easy, I always make a sample to see how it comes out then I will make the others if it's easy enough, you ought to try and give it a shot. We all have to start somewhere is what everyone keeps telling me. :thumbup:

oops= hit reply too soon :lol: :lol:

Thanks Luv2Sew2011 - . I may get brave after I finish a couple more "have to get done" gifts.

:wink: :wink: :wink:

There are all levels of quilters welcome in these swaps sapdoggie. The nine patches can be adorable if you use cute fabric!

So here's a mockup of my blocks. After reading through most of this thread I realize there is a concern for losing the points of the leaf when you sew on your sashing,etc. I followed the suggested pattern from quilters cache exactly and there's room on every point to sew a quarter inch seam. I have my pieces ready and I need to do this today yet because we hope to leave on holidays soon and I don't want this waiting for me when I get back. I'm not sure how long it will take to ship from Canada so sooner earlier than too late.

I finished my leaves this afternoon. Yeah!!! They are red leaves on black. I just PM'ed you bookworm.

I mailed my blocks yesterday. Thanks again Bookworm!!

I mailed my blocks today. Be on the lookout!

Thanks!
