I got my fabric yesterday. Going to start tonight :-)

Some that were signed up had to drop out, so their names were removed from the list.

If I sign up for a month then I only make 12 of that month is that how it works and we have until July to make them.

You may have the choice of your month, or if you don't have a preference, I will assign a month. You will make 12 blocks of your theme month. This will be a true swap, as you will NOT ge one of your own blocks back. Since all months have 2, and some have 3, say you have July, you will get one the other ladies block for July instead of yours.

Had another couple of change requests today. Please check page 2 for the months. If there are any more changes, just let me know!

This sounds like alot of fun and I would like to July or Dec, if possible.. really doesn't matter though.

I have updated the list on page 2 as there were a few more requests for changes and drop outs. Please make sure I have your name on the month of your choice. Remember, you only have to make 12 and it will be a true swap, as you will not get one of your own back. I am curious to see what blocks any of you have started! We are almost to 36, and are still open for sign ups till the end of Feb. Can we hit 48?

Hi everyone! Just an update, have had some questions on the block. 12.5 unfinished, washed fabric. SBS can be any size of your choice, the larger one that is usually seen or 7". Background should be a light color, cream, beige, tone on tone, some have asked about white, off white would be preferred. SBS should reflect your month's theme. 12 blocks due by July 1st. Applique any method you are comfortable with, satin stitch, blanket.... Please send with a return pre-paid addressed envelope. This is a true swap, you will not receive one of your own in return. We currently are headed towards 36. I will update the sign-ups as they come in. Questions are always welcome!

Ok here is my block for August Sun Bonnet Sue. I have the pattern bonded on and now just have to applique her on!
I was so excited I had to show you... I love Sun Bonnet Sue. I am going to make 13 though because this is my first every Sun Bonnet Sue and I want to keep one for me!
Once I have her appliqued I will repost! Sorry the picture is sideways, I will make sure when she is done she is upright.
Also the background may look white but I assure you it is offwhite/cream. I wanted to be sure of that when I got the material!

August Sun Bonnet Sue!
