Oh wow I love the jars! Do the jars so I can get one. Love all the blocks. It's getting so excited the end is almost here.

How did you make the jar? Is there a pattern?

Pink lady love your blocks too!

rwquilts 11-01-2012 07:36 AM

Cute, cute blocks Pink Lady!

urgodschild2, I got to have the penguin. That is what Marlena wants in her quilt. Oh please Rhonda, put that aside just for my daughter. I know begging for the blocks, if I don't get any others, please the penguin. I have a couple embroidery designs that are really small and I was looking for one to make her, that will be just so perfect!

QuilterMomma 11-01-2012 08:13 AM

So do I need to make 8 sets of five so I can have one of everyone's? These are all so wonderful. I have gone back to look at other photos so I know what is out there and they are all so wonderful! I will say it again, these are going to be some wonderful quilts/whatever you make. Just loving them!

QuilterMomma 11-01-2012 09:46 AM

That is so adorable!

rwquilts 11-01-2012 10:18 AM

Cute, cute penquin Urgodschild2! I should start receiving block sets now daily almost I would think as our deadline is fast approaching...still have well over 20 people's blocks still out there somewheres... :)...it's going to be a big job, but when done, I think it will be one of the most fun swaps ever!!!

urgodschild2 11-01-2012 12:56 PM

the Penguins hats are red. They look black in the picture. They are all mailed out and the PO says they should arrive Sat. So we will see if these little blocks want to take a detour and tour the great USA. LOL

Great blocks. Love the fabrics on the fussy cut.

javin22 11-01-2012 01:26 PM

Pink lady and urgodschild2, your blocks are great!!!

dottie dodge 11-01-2012 02:29 PM

I'm just about finished with my blocks but probably won't get them mailed until Monday. I've have a Dr.'s appointment tomorrow that I will wait and wait for and then he will send me to the hospital for tests and blah, blah, blah. All the blocks that have been posted are great. As I said the other day, I love them all! Wish my camera would come back home so that I could post mine too. Sue D

Pink Lady 11-01-2012 03:01 PM

Ok my four sets of blocks are in the mail I paid a little extra so that you will get then sooner. Well they told me 4 to 5 days so lets see how many days it takes. Hopefully they clear customs fast :) I am looking forward to seeing what blocks I get they are all so nice. I will be an extra Xmas gift come early.

I've loved the Santa, kitty, penguin, snowflakes, & of course the cute candy jars. I'm very excited for this swap. Wish I would have had more time to do more sets. I should be mailing my blocks the beginning of next week.

letsquilt 11-01-2012 04:18 PM

Im working on my blocks, doing embroidered snowmen and some santa blocks.Maybe an angel one too. Trying to get them all done so I can mail Monday. Sorry about pics still having trouble posting them.

KLTQuilts 11-01-2012 06:23 PM

Check out FaveQuilts.com for the "Bug Jar" quilt pattern - at the end of the Materials List is where you click on for the template. Have fun! Just remember you can put lots of kinds of stuff in a jar ;-) . . . . .

KLTQuilts 11-01-2012 06:26 PM

Pink Lady - That sure is a cute Kitty . . . do you have a special pattern? To be perfectly honest, everyone has done a tremendous job . . . I'm just in awe at the creativity!

rwquilts 11-01-2012 07:38 PM

You guys are awesome! I've been pming some of you's and so happy that most everyone is still playing with us and sending in blocks...talk about a "ton" of creative blocks! Eye candy, keep on!!! :)

Well..I'm slow. I thought I had posted these pictures... my bad...sorry...here they are :D Santa and the Nativity are 6.5", the Gingerbread is 9.5". I have more blocks in the works. Sorry the gingerbread recipe is so huge. It wouldn't let me make it smaller. Or I'm a dork.. :D

<3 SheriR

kensington 11-01-2012 08:19 PM

Those are cute. Gingerbread Recipe block. What a clever idea. I've not seen that before.

Fraew 11-01-2012 08:56 PM

All right that's it. No more cute blocks!!! You all are killing me with the cuteness. Love the gingerbread and the snowflakes and the sleigh ride and the....I love it all! :thumbup:

Belfrybat 11-01-2012 11:09 PM

Wonderful blocks, everyone. I'm just about finished with my blue santa blocks with the red star. Then just have one more set to make. Will post pics when they are all done. BTW I'm bumped up to 6 sets instead of just 5 -- hope that is OK.

Of course it's okay! Making more blocks allows you to get more blocks, right? :)

SheriR, your blocks are soooo cute! I want one of everything. :( Feeling like a kid in a candy store...

atpegsquiltstudio 11-02-2012 06:35 AM

those cat blocks are awesome. Hope I get one of those.

I didn't find anything named "bug jar". I clicked on quilt blocks and scrolled down but still didn't find it. Any idea where it might be hiding?

jaba 11-02-2012 06:50 AM

I typed it in the search bar , put candy jar, and it came right up
