I'll sign up! I'm still browsing through patterns deciding which blocks to make for this one. I came late to the prom. Theme swaps are my favorite and as I've been searching, I''ve been thinking of other themes I'd like to do. Fairy tales, Halloween and Outer Space/UFOs. I'd love to do any or all of those themes.

DeltaMS, Great blocks. The blocks should be the same for all 4 Blocks per each set. But, it is definitely okay to use different fabrics.

Do we know how many people are signing on for this swap? Since we're doing sets of four, chances are we wouldn't get more than one boat. If we do get two, or more, I'm fine with that. I might end up dividing my blocks and making two smaller quilts if I get enough to divide the theme between summertime and 4th of July. All the red, white and blue blocks are fantastic!
I have had 7 confirm by pm that they are joining. I have 13 plus that have shown an interest here in the swap. So, it looks like more and more people are hopping aboard this adventure with us. There will be a great variety of blocks.
I have received blocks from RedGarnett222 and djmat so far.

Djmat - good pun - my boat stays.
Here's a sample from each of my first two sets. I am doing scrappy as my stash only consists of FQ's.
Summer holidays down here usually mean either sun, surf and sea or countryside, camping and canoeing.
Here's my beach umbrella and boat.

NanaKathy, I just love your blocks!! They are awesome. I am especially partial to bunnies and shamrocks in the summer. And you heart is darling. I can see some summery words embroidered on them in my quilt. Great job. They are beautiful blocks.
