Do you have a picture of it, April?

I'm leaning toward the batik sampler. I love batiks. I'm still trying to figure out if I should do this or not.....

That would give everyone 6 weeks between mailings. Sign ups would close 2 weeks prior to the mail date.

Sounds like a good plan. I would like to sign up for all three please. :-)

If we sign up, does it mean we sign up for all three?

I am excited about the Hot Air Balloons!!! I like both the applique pattern ((although mine would be machine applique with a decorative stitch along the edges)) and the pieced pattern...can't wait to see the third (April's) pattern. I would also be alright with a Sampler of Balloons both pieced and appliqued. Gee, I may have to make three sets for all three patterns...Whatever the group decides, I'm in :) :)

no, you can sign up for only the ones you want

If we are all okay with the balloons, I am all set to put them into the formal swap mode.
I think for a more unique quilt, you may choose to do a set of 12 in either the block that Norbanaquilts posted, or the applique that Wilhemina posted. I would also like to see what April has to offer for a block! As NBQ says, Hot Air Balloon signup will close two weeks before their due date of Sept 3rd. So...after I clear this and get approval from Patrice, shall I put this into the SWAP section? Or did someone else want to host it?
