You are welcome, yonnikka. I like duplicates too, because some of the quilts I make are "matching game" I Spys... where the kids have to find the matching pairs. So two of everything works for me!
Yes, I hope we will come back to this thread and show our quilts as we make them!
I have talked to Sandra and life is still pretty overwhelming for her. I will probably be handling the next swap for her, too. I was thinking about maybe June, not before... just to give us time to gather some new interest in the swap. I will also be rolling out a new method of packaging and sending your squares, so that it is much easier to swap them. Sandra and I agreed on this! So look for the announcement for signups and the new rules around the middle or end of May.
What would you all be interested in as a "twist"? One idea is food items, so that the jar quilts that rbwiese mentioned could be made. I welcome any other suggestions. We've done "girl" and "boy" twists most recently.
