Thanks, just doing one set so background is white on mine. I didn't see any suggested colors on first page instructions.
Okay, I'll get busy and make the rest :thumbup: Rachel |
Great block!! Does this mean I should sign you up?? :) :) Thanks, Yes I would like to join in the fun, sent PM :thumbup: |
oooh...thinking hard about this one.

Hi, Rachel! I had such fun with the Halloween swap, I thought I should try this one too. Put me down for 2 sets and I'll pm you with my info. Looking forward to this.

The easiest way to "re draft" would be to add 1 inch: Make your string rectangles 3 1/2 x 9 1/2 and make your side strips 4 x 9. This would add the length you need without changing the width and still keeps the heart shape intact....it will just be a little longer. Good luck.

I'm thinking of making this pattern from http://blocksnswaps.blogspot.com/201...ith-bonus.html, but it is 6.5 x 8.5 any ideas on how to add a little more to get length to get it right for the swap? Any expert quilters out there who have any ideas on modifying the pattern?

Hi Rachel, I finished my first set. All hand embroidery. Here's my next set. (machine embroidery) Only 2 more to go. I have my third set in the works also. But, they didn't seem to want to go together today. (paper piecing) I was taking more out then I was putting in. But, I will be giving them another try on Monday. (I work on the weekends.) Having lots of fun tho. Hope to see more pretty blocks soon.

Thank you all so much. Paula, I hope that maybe you'll come join us. I don't know how many people have signed up...But the pull of pretty valentines. Purples, Pinks, Reds....I hope we'll have more joiners. These block swaps are so much fun.

Ok I am going to watch to see if I want to sign up. Don't know if I will have time to do so yet.
