Such fun ideas everyone! I think a Valentines/Heart swap would be totally fun. I also like the idea of specific blocks in a loose colorway (Like fall colored churn dashes. I love churn dashes! or red/white/blue stars or jelly bean colored pinwheels!) Will be watching for the next swap!

Florals, Snowmen, Halloween (I know these 2 are getting ready to pass but they were on the list) Spring (flowers, bunnies etc) Spring with Hexies, Valentines (hearts in pinks, reds and white or a color version of red, white and pinks with hearts thrown in. Pinwheels with valentiney fabrics but not limited to a heart) Stars, fun girlie swap w/purses or shoes etc. Wildlife swap (deers, bears, campers, wolves, tents etc) Fall and then you have the suggestions in the above post from Libster and Muse&sew.

So ladies lets discuss it and lets get another swap picked and then after I mail the winter blocks out and everyone has received them then I can get permission to host another swap. I would take in account of the holidays coming up and we would have longer to make and mail the blocks.

Ladies I have another suggestion to add to the list, someone suggested doing a Wizard of Oz swap, what do you all think about this?

Default USPS here I come!

Finally! Here's my 3 sets, finished and ready to go, and some closer shots.
It's a pity about my points though !!! ...still need consistency obviously...even with all the 'ripping' & do-overs...Bless you Maxie for extending this deadline!

My parliament of snow owls didn't come home to roost either...ran out of time to re-design them from my sample.

I like the spring/large floral swap idea, & the colorways idea. Churn dash hmm - lordy knows I need piecing practice.

K-Roll they look great in the pictures. I think they will add very nicely to our quilts.

GracefulAnn, your blocks are all so pretty, but I LOVE the snowflake on blue. Man, I hope I get one of those!

Libster the snowflake has silver stitching down the center of the block in the blue and I used a pale lilac in a tiny zig-zag to stitch the white to the blue. I love it!!
