Does anyone have any ideas that they would like to see in a block swap??
Trying to get some ideas for a future swap..:cool:

Brights in whites pieced blocks. Bright fabrics all with a kona snow back ground or other decided on white.
1930 fabrics and traditional blocks from that time.
Sun Bonnet Sues 1930
Ocean tropical beach theme
A scrap block that when put together will make a secondary theme

I veto all of these! No more cute, can't resist swaps! Got it? I'm thinking something with black plaid flannel which is just right for some, but I could definately resist. ;)

Some I like are-

Nice stash buster and super easy-
Four Patch chain
http://www.quilterscache.com/F/FourP...ock_Page2.html
The only think I would change is the part of the block that has 4 small squares making a 6 in. square in each corner. I would just make a 6 in. square to start out with.

I like this one even more-
Goose Creek
http://www.quilterscache.com/G/Goose...ock_Page2.html

We would need to decide on color layout in order to make sure we could see the secondary pattern and to make sure all blocks would play nice, so which are the lights and if it is all bright fabrics or muted.

Oh well that is more then you asked for.

I am always a sucker for Patriotics bright or muted any swap.

I did, check out the other thread you asked that question on, I did nto want to retype it, my arm is still sore. :cool:

Ideas:

I was thinking for one but not sure how it would fly, but a crazy patch block exchange. There is always a flower block swap theme since it will be going into winter time and the dulldroms will come upon us and this way could be made by the spring to enjoy, then there is birds-funky or normal, of course could always do a quilting/sewing/craft themed quilt which I am not sure I have even seen as a swap. There, will that help for some ideas? Wow, you are such a twister girl.
