Add a border and that is big enough? Add too much between and it drags the floor, creeps off the bed, wanders down the hallway??? How are YOU going to make your blocks into a quilt?

Remember my fabric is the rose, purple, green , gold, beige floral print. I found a complimentary fabric, same pattern only in rows. I bought that thinking it would be sashing. I also bought way too much of the original fabric, so I think I have enough of that for the backing.

hugs, Jupiter

Lindyline, Jacquie, Quilting Carol, PaintmeJudy, and Jetnica -- if y'all are still up for extra swaps, consider me game. I have your themes, but need your addresses -- so please pm those. You may not get your block before the end of the month, but it's definitely in the works and will be there before Christmas. Thanks for replying to my plea.

Oh yeah, y'all need my address, too. I'll pm that back to you.

:oops: awww ... thank you for the compliment. I like making the log cabins, they can be so pretty.

Don't understand how your block went astray. :thumbdown: Of all the swaps I have done, yours is the first that got lost. And usually it is only 2 days between your and my houses, so have been looking for it all week.
