I am thinking of hosting a swap with one of these two patterns:

http://quilterscache.com/A/AntiqueTileBlock.html
or
http://quilterscache.com/A/ArrowheadPuzzleBlock.html

Which one would you guys be interested in? And what kind of colors scheme (last two I did were winter) or theme would be good?

ETA: The arrowhead puzzle block is crazy easy btw.

I like the ArrowHead pattern

Colors: brights, or creams and grays, suggest a line of fabric like Bliss from Moda or granny prints/Aunte Gracie

Either would be a fun swap! I like both blocks. But I LOVE the Antique tile block! How about Red/White and Blue? Or Fall colors?
Actually ...... whatever you decide will work for me!! I want in!
Thank your hosting!!

What about a From the Heavens type theme? Skys, clouds, planets, stars, etc? It would be different if nothing else ;)

I like both of them, but the arrowhead is my favorite. I think it would be a lot of fun to do.

I sent for approval.... Arrowhead for now. I might do the other one later but if someone else wants to take it I don't mind

I like the arrowhead. As a really new newbie piecing items, this would be good for me ... as long as it meets the standards of others ... crossing fingers it would.

Do you know what size and how many you would be thinking of doing for the swap?

I have limited access to shops so brand specific fabrics would count me out.
