I bought my fabric yesterday. I'll post a photo. I plan to make these into 2 twin sized quilts for our guest bedroom. I will be sending out 18 of each of the floral prints. The blue and green geometrics will be the sashing between blocks, I think. I am hoping that you will match up the colors with near solids... I'll be cutting it up and sending it later this week.

Jupiter, I love the fabrics, they make me wish I was participating in this swap.

Squishies today:

Crafty3790
Moonwork42049
Shay1896
PokerDiva
MonarchBee
QuilterMomma
SewCornie
GoldenDog55

Some have already told me what they want to be - others started fighting with me the second I opened the envelope. =)

I'm almost done with the graduation quilt (just have a few more quilting lines!) and then I need to add a 12" border to a co-worker's quilt and bind it.

THEN - i get to work on your blocks!

=)

So, Would anyone be offended by embroidery? I do love my machine and while I'm not promising everyone embroidered blocks, they do make me happy.

Is anyone against this for their quilts?
I would love to have an embroidered block. The fun of this type of swap is the variey.

That way if he does get married, wife won't mind it.
If you are making it for your brother-in-law's graduation, does the college he is graduating from have school colors?
