QuilterMomma----LOVE your block.
Bloomin'Iris---I am a newbie also. I joined this board and have done several swaps. I joined the Boomerang swap so was able to try many, many different blocks. Sometimes they work out, sometimes they don't. I have received two very nice blocks from this Monthly Quilting Bee Swap. In seeing all the variety on here, I felt like maybe I shouldn't be doing this swap due to lack of experience. Everyone seems more advanced than myself. But, it is nice to see another newbie wanting to get involved. The best thing is seeing all the wonderful comments from the "veteran" quilters on here. Dotcomdtcm has been very helpful to me. Because of the comments and help from dotcomdtcm, I would like to try extra swaps. :thumbup: Please PM me if interested.
Good luck bloomin'Iris. This board if full of wonderful friends!!!! :wink:
