after reading your theme, is there a color theme for the background that you would like or are we open to anything??

There isn't anything specific I'm looking for because I don't know any names of them yet. I am just gonna go with the flow and let your imaginations run wild!

Are there any specific blocks that you're looking forward to receiving?

I'm just going with the flow and excited to see what you guys come up with. (I forgot to add the quote on my first response.)

Hi, everyone :lol:
I just found this block swap and want to join. Sounds like so much FUN and not too much work for a newbe like me. I can do one block a month!
I sent you a PM Blueribbontoes. Hope you got it, I am a newbe on the computer too. I want blue and yellow stars. I can't wait to get my names for Nov. and Dec.

Yaaaaay, more participants! I have already chosen my theme (iris flowers) but can think of lots more themes that any of you are welcome to adopt as your theme if you are still undecided >> Cats, Under the sea/coastal prints, Patriotic, Sports, Flowers, Black/White, all nine-patch, blocks from the Quilterscache that include a woman's name in the title (Oh, Susahanna, Betty's choice, etc), butterflies, teapots, snowmen. . .
Have fun!

When picking your themes, please please please remember we have all skill levels, and not everyone can applique.

You will receive the partner's INTERPRETATION of your theme- so please be open to a little bit of everything and anything! Thank you!
Everyone will be doing their best, so please be appreciative of whatever you get.

Also, when receiving blocks, PLEASE POST PICTURES! It is so much fun to see what everyone gets!

Thank you,
your friendly bossy-lady.
