Great blocks, Marty, Harmony, and Mamabird! They all look great! I wish my fabric would get here so I can start!!

Question Colletta, If I send you 24 blocks will you be able to send me 24 diffrent blocks? This may have been answered but I havent had time to read all the entries here.

thats a great block mama.

these quilts are going to look beautiful.

This is my Block i am Making

I think with the number of particpants we have that shouldn't be a problem. That's the plan anyway!

Wow, you ladies are making some wonderful blocks. You are really on the ball and you still have 2 months until the mailing deadline.

Remember, when you're ready to mail them out, please pm me and I'll reply with my addy. You can send them at any time for those of you that like to clear out space and move on to the next project.

I bought, washed, and ironed my fabric this weekend! Oh, I also bought a pinking rotary blade and used it before washing the fabric, the fraying was almost non-existent!! I’ve only been quilting a little over a year and have decided to keep it simple and go with the Planned Patchhood block at http://www.quilterscache.com/P/Plann...hoodBlock.html If that goes well I’m looking at doing Comforts of Home at http://www.scrapquilts.com/0202_bom.html

I’m looking at all the awesome blocks some of you have posted and hope I do this swap justice. Thanks for having me
:lol:

Hmmmm... maybe I should look into getting a pinking blade. Really annoying when you take a bunch of FQs out of the washer and then have to cut off all those strings that are winding them all up into a ball!

Definitely get one - I do this too. I pink the raw edge and take a little triangle off by the selvages. It works great.

Great tip Angie! :D

Lord I just put my fabrics in the wash. I didn't read the pinking thing first. Darn!!
