Welcome all to our new
MONTHLY DISAPPEARING FOUR PATCH quilt block swap. I hope everyone has fun and enjoys themselves so everyone will be happy with their blocks.
Here’s how it works: we will all be making 8 1/2" unfinished D4P quilt blocks in a different theme each month. You may make as few or as many sets of D4P blocks as you like. One set equals 6 D4P blocks. You may make as many as 6 sets of 6 blocks which would be thirty-six (36) D4P blocks. Wow! That’s a lot of quilt blocks. Imagine how cool that quilt will be??? I know! Right??? In case you have never made a D4P quilt block, here are the instructions:

Please PM me by the 20th of each month to sign up. Please provide:

Mailing: please put blocks in a large ziploc baggie along with your name and address on/in the bag. This will help protect your blocks in case your package is damaged.
