My blocks arrived yesterday, so excited. Now to plan out the quilt. This was such a fun swap. I'm ready for another swap
|
Another happy swapper ..... beautiful blocks, each so unique, so many different fabrics and talented people sewing so precisely. Did I say I was so thrilled with all the blocks. Thank you Armylady for organizing!
|
Army lady I also pm'd you. Received my beautiful blocks yesterday. We live in the rural area of NE PA so didn't get to the mail until this am. They are all gorgeous! Have appts. today but will try to post pix tonight if it is still light out when I get home or tomorrow am at the latest.

|
:( Mine didn't make it yesterday, but said they are out for delivery today, really looking forward to seeing all of the lovely blocks!
|
I received my blocks. I want to thank you all. They are beautiful!
Great Swap Armylady. I enjoyed seeing your star blocks. |
Hi ladies I went on the site for the quilterscache found 10 patterns that I think will work for the swap. I feel that if you are going to make more than 2 sets of blocks then we need a variety of star patterns to have more of a variety of star blocks in our quilts. Please take a look and see what you all think. If everyone is Ok with using some of these patterns for their blocks then I will write up the announcement and get permission from the QB admin to make the post. Please don't start making the blocks until I have the announcement posted in case we do not get permission.

I liked all the star blocks except for the Brasstown, but that's just me. You also might want to choose at least one more block like the friendship star that is a little more beginner friendly as a couple of them look a little complicated. Looking forward to the next swap!

ArmyLady, will these be the only star blocks allowed for the swap?
|
I received my beautiful blocks yesterday. I love them!! A BIG thank you to all the swappers!!
