I'm working on a block but am having difficulty sticking to batiks only .... there's some other fabrics in my stash that keep working their way into my design. Maybe I need to go shopping for more batiks?

I am going to make some first and then sign up, cause I dont want to get to busy and then not get it done

Lovngrandma fun blocks! It would be fun to have you join in for another block! Love all the pretty batik fabrics!

Is it too late to join this swap?
I'm still figuring out sashing for blocks I got in a couple of previous batik swaps but enjoy the variety of gorgeous blocks received. Did get two of them completed and gifted. One went as a Christmas gift and the other to a teenager who lost her mom in a car wreck between Christmas and New Years.

mom-6 just send your name in and info, doesn't close until the 15th of Feb.

Thanks jaba. Think I will follow short and sweet's example and get a set done before I sign up to be sure the time crunch doesn't land on me with a vengence, which it has a habit of doing just when I'm sure I have plenty of time to get everything done.

Got a set done last night but discovered they are the wrong size. However I'm not really upset because I like them so much they wouldn't be able to leave my house anyway. LOL! Think I'm going to make some more just like them till I run out if one of the fabrics. So sorry y'all, you just have to wait for another batch with different pattern and fabrics.
