So far Robert I am loving the pink and black blocks, I only have four so far but I think once I get enough for a quilt with theses I might do black and white with a splash of color, someone else posted pics of that and I thought that was beautiful, But I love pink so I am loving how the blocks are coming in and how the different material then what we have here.
So how many blocks does everyone use before they make there quilt, do you do the swap for 12 month then make your quilt and start with a new theme and color the following year or what does everyone make and how long do you go before you change up your theme?

That's exactly what I do....unless I get more people to trade w/me before 12 months is up and I get them all sooner. I have a purple and white theme going on now and I too, want/will do a black and white w/a splash of color next theme.
Here's what I do.......
I start with my block that I want to make a quilt of. I have done Applique roosters, Grandmas fan, I did black and white with a little red, etc. Then I post that i will do extra swaps and have them PM me. It's a really good thing to do for you and the other swapper cause you get to do your quilt sooner.
give it a try and see what happens.
All the best
