I made this block for a different swap, wouldn't fit exactly in this swap, but maybe some of you would like to put it in your finished quilts, it is an full autumn tree made w/ hst (and a few squares and rectangles)

I was thinking if I join this swap (seeing if time will allow) I'd use that as the center large square, put the leaf blocks from the swap at the bottom and maybe a swirling flying geese at the top.

Kassaundra,
First I would like to say I Love your avatar! It is so me in the summer. LOL!
I hope you find the time to join us. It is not only about the blocks, but also about the fun of being in the group of fun girls to chatter and share with.

Yes, that would be soooooo much fun!!

Kassaundra - sure hope you join in; your main block is a great start for your quilt. Of course, with all of us "creative ladies" our sample blocks would truly make your quilt "shine with style" :thumbup: So, come on and join in the fun . . .

Kassandra hope you join in. Your creativity is always inspiring.

I'm trying to decide if I have time for this one, will have to get finished with my Halloween blocks, then vacation,and figure out what blocks I want to do. I do have a friend with a great tree in her back yard that has the prettiest leaves on it. Will have to find out what that is,they would be great for a set.

Oh, oh oh! I just saw this swap! I must join in! I must, I must, I must! Love fall and leaves...what a terrific theme Rhonda! :) This will be super fun!

Kassaundra - I'm trying to figure the size of your blocks (of course, I'm not too great figuring out the math - he, he, he). Would you be willing to share the sizing for this pattern? Thank you!

It is 12.5 square, so the hst are 2.5 (unfinished) and the squares the same size, but the rectangles are 2.5 x 4.5. It would be easy to make bigger just increase the hst size.

Thank you Kassaundra! It sure is a stunning block!
