Let me see how this weekend's fair goes, and I'll let you know. If it's slow, I should have some time next week to make some blocks. (I've got/had fairs every weekend from early October - December 14, so I haven't been able to join many swaps lately.)

Are the 6 block in a set supposed to be all the same fabric (with white)? Or are they supposed to be 6 blocks that all look different? Or can they be a combination, for example, 2 blocks made with one fabric and 4 blocks made with another fabric? I think I'd like to join, but I'm not quite sure what is required!

Also, can it be real, authentic 30's fabric, or must it be newly purchased reproduction fabric?

I can do 6 sets easily but I need to understand exactly what you want. Okay, 1 set would consist of 6 d4p blocks, all the same. In return I would receive 6 d4p blocks, all different. Is this correct?

Good morning, sunrise450 - -

I posted a picture earlier in this thread to show an example of how one block would look. You may make 1 set with all the same 30's fabric or you may 'mix 'em up' - - - each block in 1 set might have a different 30's fabric - so long as you use the same 30's fabric per block. Please don't use 2 different 30's fabric in the same block.

If you use the same 30's fabric for all 6 blocks in 1 set and you are planning on sending more than 1 set, please use a different fabric in each set.

Check this out:

Hope that helps!

Wow!! Authentic 30's fabric would be an amazing treasure but certainly not required. Please use whichever works for you.

Oh! I love the plain colored one! Let's do that one month! :-) With black is very striking!

Carolynjo - I look forward to having you participate when you're able. Best wishes on your upcoming surgery. I hope you look on from the sidelines!

ok, I'm in, I will sign up for 4 sets. I found some partial 30's charm packs that were gifted to me and they are perfect for this swap!!! I had tucked them away for the perfect occasion and here it is!
Since they are only partial sets, I won't be able to make 6 alike, but they will all go together. :)
