Hi stitchengramie,
You can make as few or as many sets as you wish of each size or all one size.

Typically, the one set are six blocks are all the same in size and look exactly the same with the fabrics. But, as long as they are the same size, you can mix the blocks to make a set. Does this make any sense?

It is up to you. That is what this swap is all about. So open to your creativness. LOL! I have a set of 9 1/2 x 12 1/2 going on right now, and a set of 12 1/2 x 12 1/2's and the teapots are 9 1/2 x 9 1/2.

We must all be so busy working on our blocks or those who actually have some spring weather are outside working in the yard. So my spoon and fork set are going to be stitching out while I am busy working on cutting out the tea cups and coffee pots, and coffee cups. I think i just have to throw in some additional fabric of vegetables so will be stopping and LQS Tursday pm, before tax meeting, to buy some and make a couple of vegetable blocks. I am making some potholders to match my blocks so will make my kitchen look a bit more matchy matchy. I am hoping to get enough blocks to make a table runner and wall hanging to go with my pot holders.

Oh gee this sounds too cute quiltermomma! I hope you show us what it looks like when you are finished.

That all depends on the camera charger. It is not wanting to charge my battery for the camera. Not sure what is going on. But will show you photos one way or another. Camera phone works somewhat.

I am also making teapots, teacups, coffee cups and coffee pots. I am also going to try and make some cookie jars except I cannot find a pattern for a cookie jar.

Check out maybe some coloring books. They might have sum. Or Winnie the Pooh honey jar may bork for a cookie jar?

My silverware now has colors. My husband said that the standard "silver" should have some color like blue, red, and orange. So there is going to be some of those. They do look cute. They are almost done. If camera cooperates with this computer, will show some photos as long as the battery holds up.

How about these spoons, they are just so the bomb. I have them in silver, blue, and red also. I may throw in a pink or brown, what do you want? I am having to much fun. Good thing I can't make 12 of these little guys. I would have silverware everywhere. They would all be different now......

I know, I hope I can do enough colors to match different colored kitchens. Pink ought to be fun.
