Hi all,
My April partner cjr and I have exchanged our blocks. She asked me to post the photos for us.

We agreed to swap two block. She sent me the two orange, turquoise and chocolate star blocks, along with a very fun piece of Las Vegas scrap to play with (shame on me, I didn't take a photo of that piece, but trust me, it's a fun piece).

She requested a block that represents traveling the USA and any type of building block. I chose to applique a block with our state bird, the chickadee. The house was just a fun paper pieced block.

Enjoy,
deb in Maine

Nice blocks. Here is a picture of my April partner, TheMamaHauser. The first one is the one I sent her for Americana pinwheel, and the 2nd one is the one she sent me for Oriental Garden
