I am just gidy. The blocks came in and are so cute. Thank you Ronda for hosting this swap and everything you did. Thank you to everyone who swapped and participated.I love all the blocks! I have a long ways to go with paper piecing but I am already planning to participate in another paper piece swap and DH bought me a paper piece book for Mother's Day.

Is anyone from this swap planning to do the next paper piecing swap? This next paper piecing swap is also hosted by our wonderful swap host, Ronda.

I am so glad you like it and already have plans for it. When the swap blocks came in I became a little worried that the fish bowl might be a bit big since the scale of most of the other blocks seemed smaller. So I am glad to hear you like it and found a home for it.

I got it, I got it, I got it.......they are great. I am at work, so I will take pictures later and upload.

Thanks so much.

Anna, we have a lot of people who joined in this swap who are taking the journey with us for the next one also! Perhaps we'll get some new players as well...so glad these are coming home safe and that you're enjoying your blocks! Super cute pictures!

When I got home today and I had a package waiting for me on the table. Couldn't hold back the excitement as I opened it to all of these cute little blocks. Thank you to everyone that made my blocks, they are so special.

A special Thanks to Rhonda for hosting the fun swap. Can sign me up for the next one. I need more blocks as I have a plan.

I received one of your fishbowls too and I love it. Sew clever!

Finally found my camera, will post my blocks later. It is so fun to see where my blocks went and to see everyone's blocks. I think I would like to place orders...

PP is addictive and I am definitely addicted!:D:D

These are soooo cute! And look at my Siamese kitty and fabulous fishbowl!

I see multiple quilts here:
kitties and fish
something wintery with the pines and snowman
springtime flowers and birds while sipping tea (can't wait to see what I can add to this with the garden swap).

Just too much ladies.

Thank you for playing and thank you fabulous hostess!

See you in the garden! :)

Ladies I LOVE my blocks. Thank you so much. I realized I forgot to put my name on the ones I sent. They were the rectangle tulip and iris. I'll do it right next time. I also see so many cute ones I didn't get. I may need to do more sets in the Garden swap so I get more of your cute cute little pieces of art. Did that sound selfish?? :D

I received my blocks yesterday, and they are alllll beautiful!! I love each and every one of them. I will try and snap a pic over the next few days, and share what I received. A huge thank you to Ronda for being a wonderful hostess :)

rwquilts 05-10-2012 01:50 PM

I'm so happy that you all are enjoying your blocks! I sure had fun swapping them out. I love looking at all the pictures! Sheri, it's not selfish to want to trade more blocks...it's fun!!! You guys all did a fabulous job and I'm excited to see what we come up with in the garden swap! Meet cha yonder in the garden! :)

Annaquilts 05-10-2012 03:00 PM

No not at all. I think it would be nice. There would be more to swap. Also when I commit to a swap I generally try and send a nice full envelop. You figure it costs about $12 by the time you send and get your return. Also generally one set for a swap is not enough to make a quilt.

Oh I recieved my blocks today, oh I love them all. Now to figure out how and where to use them to their best feature. Thanks so much. Now Im going to do the garden pp swab so I may use some for that quilt when done.

My package arrived Wednesday. What a great collection of blocks. I'm going to wait until the garden swap is over before trying to put them all together. Thanks everyone and to you Ronda for doing all of the fun swaps.

It is so fun to see all the blocks that others received and who received my blocks. Here are the blocks I received. Thank you everyone. All of the blocks are so well made. It is fun to exchange with other nuts who 'like' paper piecing. :D :D :D

I love what you did Diana! I think you are the first one to finish something with our blocks. I think most of us are waiting to get some more blocks to go with. Great job!
