Colletta..I might try to make 2 sets...it just depends. I really wished that I had for the Blue/White..so I don't want to be sorry after this one is over. Its ok if I just do that isn't it? Do I have to commit publicly??? You know that is kinda scary for me... :roll: :lol:

No you don't have to commit publicly. lol If you have time and the inclination to send two sets, go for it.

LOL Pam. I just can't stand odd numbers. They drive me nuts for some reason. I got married on a Sunday cause Sat was an odd date.

I'm in! I really enjoyed the blue and white stars. I've got black and white fabric that I've been intending to use and this is perfect for it. I'll start off with 1 set, but I may end up with 2, depending on how life treats me the next few months. I think I'll do Clay's Choice.
If I decide to do another set, I'll pick a different pattern.

No you don't have to be experienced. Just pick an easy block and do your very best work on it. If you send me 12 blocks. You will get 12 back. I'll look around for an easy block for you. Maybe someone else will have some ideas also.

What about a Friendship Star?

Count me in, too. I've been planning a black and white quilt for some time now. I need to pick my block, but it won't be today.
I'm using a public computer and running out of time!!!

This will be so fun!

Count me in then. I will do the Friendship one since I am new and making friendships with all of you. I better go get started now since I am sure to be slower than most. Thanks for letting me join. Ok let me make sure you said 12 blocks at 12 1/2? The pattern says this if 12 inch block (will it be 12 1/2 with the 1/4 around? You want the fabric washed?
