this is what I had in mind.....just a thought, with the fishbowl actually being inverted and spring flowers or butterflies or something spring in the bowl.....more to come on that as I get it fine tuned. What do you all think?

Oh goodness that looks crazy fun!!!! I'm liking the butterfly idea or whatever you pick. I have never done it. So I get to be nervous about it. (note to self…sign up for ONE set)
Love you deb!!! Super excited to get my gardens of poinsettias.

Oh Deb I knew you couldn't hold out on us for long 
I likey... I can see it as a bouquet of flowers or nice bugs- not mean nasty looking ones - but butterflies ( are they a bug ?) , lady bugs , etc... oh will have to keep my eyes open for this one 
I notice the pattern in 18 inches will out blocks be that big ?

It is one that will be very simple or you may step it up a bit to get you out of your comfort zone.
YIPPEE Blocks coming
Thank you Deb for all you do to make your swaps the greatest !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Merry Christmas - enjoy the time with family and friends !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sharon, this is where the blocks can be simple, or outside your comfort zone. The fishbowl - which will in fact be more like a snowball can be done just as it is - making 12 of them, and those who want to extend themselves can do the entire block set, making only 6 or maybe 9. The sizes of the finished piece will vary, as you may want to finish them a little differently. Since the blocks are larger, some may be used for wall hangings instead. Oh.....you are making me get way ahead of myself......Sharon, you little bugger....

Looks great! I might be interested depending on what you want in the bowl. Hopefully it is something I would have most of the fabric for to do it.
