ConnieF...yes, any size divisable by 3...plus the seam allowance...and yes...you have until 15 March to commit, then mail no later than 1 April.
Ya'll, I'm still thinking about a new swap...but we have plenty of time. There are tons of swaps on the board and I know Patrice likes to spread them out..so some probably need to close before we add a ton of new ones. I like them kinda spread out, that lets me have more time to play in more of them. :wink:

I agree about sets of 12! The first 6 are fun, then the next 3 are ok then that last set of 3 is so boring!
If I hadn't spent so much time looking at chickens I would have been done with them! Today is the day.
I'm not even in this swap yet and I have already found about 14 chickens I have the fabric for and would love to make!
If I get in there will be at least 3 pieced blocks and the rest applique.
I won't be doing 14 sets I promise!
It really depends on how well the boomerang blocks go when I start them. I know the deadline isn't until April but some are done with them or almost done and I haven't started.
I love to look here and see all these great creations and ideas.
Keep up the great work ladies.
:-D

I really like the idea of doing kitchen blocks, cupcakes...oh it all sounds like great FUN!!!
Would it aproblem to anyone if I did a flannel chicken? I found a real neat pattern done in flannel.

Karen, thats a pretty cool chicken strip! I haven't seen anything like that before.
On the flannel though...can you do it in a cotton fab? It would be the only flannel block in the swap and might be a little harder to place in the whole quilt.
