They are very pretty. I think the variety of flakes will be a really nice. Like in real life each is unique.

not too bland.... I did applique it with metallic silver thread to sparkle it up a bit.
I hope to get these in the mail today or tomorrow!

Please take note of this posting.....I have had to make a plea from the Board members for 6 additional participants for this swap to be successful. I started to cut out some block sets myself, and realized that there is just no way that I would be able to make 6 sets. I ask you to accept my shortcomings on this and please understand that in hopes of getting the necessary blocks, I am extending an invitation and deadline for blocks to be due Dec 10. I apologize if some of you were anticipating using the blocks for Christmas gifts....there just isn't any way for me to make this a successful swap otherwise. Many of you are already doing additional block sets, and I appreciate that and will not even consider having you do additional ones. The holidays are coming fast (one is almost here!) and we have lives that we need to enjoy and families that SHOULD take priority instead of our quiliting (GASP)....as for many of us, quilting is our sanity and salvation! I ask that you please understand this extension in hopes of making this swap a nice one.

I completely understand! You have done an outstanding job in all the Dresden plate swaps, and I have no doubts that this one will be have a happy ending as well. I wish I could make an extra set, but I am afraid I won't have the time. Anyway, I hope others will step forward and help us out.

Deb- you know I go along with anything you suggest. We all know you do everything with in reason to make your swaps, fun and successful and some things are beyond your control. Don't fret as I stated before I collect the blocks with no set plans yet ( I finally do have one Calender Sue sewn together LOL) I wish I had time to do another set even with more time- I just don't think it is possible 
Deb go and have a Happy Thanksgiving - the rest will fall into place
