Love the cardinal BrushandThimble! They will be a hit I'm thinking...

Jenniky, can't wait to see your pink flamingos and other blocks! I love the variety we're getting here.

ok, found lots of patterns, now just to narrow it down as I don't want to overwhelm myself and get late.
Is anyone else doing a watering can? pansy or violet? ladybug?
found lots of colours in my stash, but never have everything as I need to increase my greens for leaves/stems and red colours now I find. lol, pity me, I have to make a run for the QS.

Gee in the middle of writing here, I went to check on something (google) and my message was gone. Hope it does not show up twice.
Thank you for the complements I could not remember the program name when asked where I got my pattern, FoundationFactory by Caorl Doak, put out by Quilt Pro. I have not purchased any in years. Did receive one in January at retreat for mariners compass.

Pattia, I'm not sure what everyone is making...but regardless, you go ahead and make whatever speaks to you and it will be great! You can have similar patterns, but all will be with different fabrics. I still have to decide what else to make myself...I say go for it! I did make a small ladybug for the twist, but then found other patterns I liked as well and made those too, so... LOL!

I am going to work on these today and see if I can get some more done and pics posted. Hope ya'all are having fun!

I am so glad this changed. I have lots of scraps but am not sure if prewashed. Will starch and steam for sure! Thanks everyone.

Here are two 6 1/2" sets I've finished up for this swap. One is of trees...as you can see, I changed and did scrappy piecing for most of the trees. The other set is of tulip buds I suppose...not sure what flower it is.

I will try and see that if you like a particular block to jot it down and do my best to give you blocks you want. Obviously if 12 people want a block, not everyone will get every block they want, but hopefully you'll get some of them you like?

I was really just kidding and I would never want to put you under that pressure or make anyone feel bad with fewer oohs and aahs...but the tree with fruit just pushed me to the brink of desperation!

But seriously, if I saw something that I couldn't live without and didn't get one, I have no shame in asking the lovely creator to do a side swap.

Ronda you are a fabulous hostess!
