I’m thinking about joining this swap. I’ve wanted to make a patriotic sampler for some time now, do you just do this once a year?
|
Pam, I did hold a Patriotic/R/W/B Swap last year. So, I won't hold another swap like this one next year. I will be thinking of something else next year.
|
Ok then, I’d like to join. Do you need to know how many sets upfront or can we play that part by ear? I’d like to do 5 sets but am not sure I’ll be able to get them all done.
Are embroidered blocks allowed? When you put your name on the blocks is it permanent or just an attached note of some kind? |

Just know that 20 blocks is the maximum you can send. Yes, Embroidered blocks are allowed. They make a lovely addition to any quilt. When I put my name on my blocks, I just use the small narrow post its that I pick up at the Dollar Store. You can pin them or sew them on with your machine. I usually sew all my with my machine at the end. Nothing fancy, Just a long straight stitch. So, nothing permanent. Some people use address labels. Just your board name on the label is sufficient. |

This is my next block set. I have 2 done in each color. I don't know what the name of the block is. I saw it in a past swap here on the board and liked it. It makes simple squares look very graphic.

Now I know what you mean. I never heard of it as DP9. Thanks for the info. I actually have a DP9 in mind for the RWB swap.

Sorry I won't be able to join in this year. Too many irons in the fire. But I did just get out the top that I made from my block swaps. Am looking for a suitable back. I may have to piece something together. Best wishes to all the participants. Marcia Battle Axe

I believe this quilt block is called Garlic Knots and is also called Arrowhead Puzzle It is a very fun block! And pretty fabrics!

And please move me to the "yes, I'm in!" category.
I'm working on my first block now. Each handle will be a different red fabric. [ATTACH=CONFIG]609930[/ATTACH] |
