I would like to do a set each of #45, #67 and #10. I love miniature blocks and 1930's, too!

Jazs2 posted some blocks she made using these patterns under the Picture section. They're wonderful!

I just saw those and OMGosh!! Is she on the swap too? (going to look).. She did a wonderful job on them! Makes mine look like doggy doo do!

She did join us, but Tuesy, I highly doubt your blocks look like doggy doo do! Lol! I made some and they're all wonky. I'll post a picture once I finish the blanket stitch I'm doing by hand. (Yes, there will only be one set of these little boogers- I'm going back to needle turn applique or paper piecing...this blanket stich is no fun!)

YAY!! I had to look too! :lol:.. and yes my blocks look like doggy doo do!.. but I'm not doing them over AGAIN..(did one block twice and kept messing up in the same place). :roll: Then the colors didn't look right, so had to do another.. so in reality I've done more than my 5 sets.. just those aren't good at all.. they're even worse than doggy doo do..blech!
Whatcha mean your's are all wonky? I think on the one set of mine, the flower grew cause it was the right size when I was cutting it out!..
I still have a callus (sp?) from doing the blanket stitch on a penny rug I did a couple of years ago.. that stuff wasn't fun at all.. so I feel your pain... Needleturn.. well I don't do that well.. so I don't do it at all...I'm the "fusible" kinda gal! :lol:

Well here is my 5 sets... be gentle...I cry easily! :lol: :lol:
