Thank you Quiltingnonie, I loved working with the red fabric - and seeing all your blocks together, I definitely have to add a red/unbleached muslin quilt to my bucket list - I tried to put the pattern page in everyone's envelope so they would know the name of the block and a little bit about why I picked it for them - I do have a tendency to overthink everything, so feel free to ignore my ramblings, but understand that I loved every minute of playing with all your wonderful fabrics - I think my brain doubled in size with this swap!

These blocks will compose the center of a civil war type quilt for DH. He mentions EVERY time that I make a quilt, that I've never made one for him! (All the quilts I have kept are either on our walls or couches) DH LOVES civil war history - in fact our entire bedroom is decorated in red, grey and blue.
Thank you all so much for participating with me. I really enjoyed it.
BTW, his birthday is the end of Oct, so need to get crackin' on putting it all together. (Of course, there is always Christmas...!)
