Oh, Such a fun swap. Not sure about joining yet.
I do have a question. How are the things like whiskers and eyes treated. Do they need to be stitched or are permanent fabric pens allowed for the tiny detail?
Thanks!

Hi ladies~ I've been briefly checking in from time to time this past week. I've been ill but still trying to get some sewing done and I'm hoping to work on my blocks tomorrow. Wish me luck!
Oh I like the idea of the details with a permanent fabric pen but feel free to embroider if need be. I love the ideas and I can't wait to see pictures!

Well folks, I had a fire at our cottage over the weekend, and I am going to be busy with that, so I am going to bow out of this swap and only do the other two I was already promised on.
I'll be watching and checking in from time to time, so please post pictures, so I can get ideas for when I have a little free time to make one of my own.
Hugs
Chris
