Anna quilts your beautiful blocks arrived yesterday (05/10). Just wanted to let you know they arrived safely. Next time I update the list I will add them received :thumbup:

Robinlee those blocks are Gorgeous!! I sure hope you get the measurement worked out. The advice everyone has given you so far is the best I would be able to offer myself. Like feline fanatic pointed out, her methods are for speed piecing, and sometimes I find that method can get "wonky".

Happy Mother's Day everyone! :)

Aww thank you Mariposa... Hope you and everyone else has had a wonderful Mother's Day also :)

I have 8 blocks done, 4 to go for the one set I signed up for. I am really bummed because the pattern I used to make a disappearing 9 patch turned out with a 12.5" 9 patch. If I do the cut and turn, it will only be 12", so I have to stop there. There are 4 half square triangles, so it's not totally boring, but I don't have enough batik fabric to cut another set. So they won't be fancy designs, but I like the colors and hope others will too. Will try to post pics when I can. Got caught up in the X-Block class I took last weekend and have been making that quilt since.

Look forward to seeing them LynnVT.

I have one set nearly done. I used batik fabric strips I had cut up a while ago (years) and put them with a nice complimentary fabric. That set is nearly there.

Then i have just part of the next set cut and have to finish cutting the rest. Having a bit of trouble cutting, but will work at it. progressing along

How is everyone else doing? Looking forward to seeing some beautiful blocks.

Please include me in this swap, it is my first time and it should be fun

Sounds great rcain@01... Please send me a PM with your real name, mailing address, and your email address.

Thanks for joning in on the fun :)

I mailed my 2 sets of blocks on Saturday. I used a 12.5" omnigrid ruler to check sizes. I never sweated so much over any blocks I have made but this is my first swap. I hope they are okay and everyone likes them!

Oh you know we will. We love all blocks!
