LOL Rachel. You are so right. I have several bigger quilts I am working on that need to be done by June but you might as well count me in for this swap as right now I am working on piecing and appliqueing blocks for it. I also designed 6 different blocks, several paper piecing. Not sure if I will get to make all but I can not seem to lay off. Way too much fun. Do you already need to know how many sets? So yes, go ahead and sign me up. I would think I will make 4-6 sets.

Sounds like you want to join us, can I sign you up for our magical walk through the forest?

Hi athenagwis - I can't resist your Magical Forest. I have been working on 3x6" gnomes today - one set.
I hope to do more of something else but will let you know what develops. Are you flooded with mushrooms yet?
Would love to be added in.
Thanks.

6 - striped trees
1 - swirly tree
2 - trees with birds, apple, and squirrel
1 - birds with flowers
1 - gnome mushroom house

5 - appliqued pine trees (photo shows 6, but somebody (can't imagine who! LOL!) goofed and sewed the tree on the wrong side of the background fabric! )

6 sets (36 blocks) total.


I need a nap now! LOL!

Indeed WOW! Great job and so many done already. And then I thought I was doing good with 2 sets done.
Thanks for posting. It helps me think of how to add to the blocks I am making. Mushrooms are on my menue next. I just washed the fabric and am drying it right now.

I have been working on some mushroom houses and some crazy trees. They are appliques. They are coming out really cute. Not quite ready for pictures though. Maybe later today.
