Happy Mother's Day to all of you. I got my blocks yesterday and I'm so pleased. This looks like a QOV happening!

I received my blocks yesterday and didn't receive one of my own blocks back! Thank you Jan for the swapping all these pretty blocks to me. Now to design the layout and start sewing them together to be ready by July 4th. Whoopeee! Thanks again Jane

I'm glad everyone is pleased. Thanks for another great swap. I'm officially signing off of this thread.

Hey everyone!! Just a small plug for the red, white and blue layer cake swap - a great way to get unique fabric to finish off parts of your quilt maybe? I might make a bricks border and a scrappy binding...who knows. Or use some of my D4P blocks for the quilt, and add to other D4P with this fabric for a runner.

Anyway, to all who liked my fireworks fabric, it's in my package. And a gorgeous flower print, too.

[ATTACH=CONFIG]487150[/ATTACH] need you help ladies/gentlemen, This is what I've done so far with my blocks. it's about 72x53. I really don't want to make it bigger than 80x? Question is, would a small border on 2sides and larger on one side look bad? Any suggestions.

What a fabulous setting! How about a small 1 inch inner border on all sides then maybe a 3 inch border ((dark blue!)) all around. Should make it approx. 61 x 80. Just a thought.

Great job!

I was thinking of something similar to that Jane, I fell it would look off it it wasn't a little bit wider. I'll audition that and a few others.

Here is the quilt I ended up making from the swap blocks. I think it came out great!
