Now: We have some people doing embroidery blocks and they might be slightly different.

After thinking about it, I don't have a problem with people sending in 12 blocks that are not all identical.

I don't think any swapper will be harmed by someone making different blocks because they will be getting all differerent blocks back anyway.

If someone has a problem with this addition, please let me know!!!! I just want everyone to have fun doing this swap!!!!

Blessings!

I was picking out my blocks, and now, I find I still have a question. Did we receive a green light to also use different block patterns, too???

That won't cause her a "sorting problem," making certain the 12 coming back to us are all different patterns? I guess... if the fabrics are (will most certainly be) different, it doesn't matter?

Happy Quilting
It will be fine. We only have 20 signed up so far and I think I have a system that will not cause a problem. Go ahead and do it!!

Blessings!!
Carole

I lost my brother on September 8th. I thank GOD for the years that I had with him and especially for these last months of his life.

I just want to thank everyone for all of your support and prayers.

Now: I received a package from someone in Hot Springs and I don't know their board name. Can you please let me know so I can update the board and give the correct person credit for these beautiful blocks?????

Blessings!
Carole

Carole, I know how you feel and I'm so sorry for your loss, but know he not suffering anymore and no longer in pain, I loss my sister back in March 2009 she drowned in a car accident and she was my only sibling. Sometimes I feel loss, she was younger than me not by much but still my baby sister. I pray that you and your family, can't get pass the of loosing a loved one. God Bless to you and your family and will keep you all in my prayers.
