Carsey, thanks for hosting. question: 12 blocks "all alike", all the same pattern. Is it identical fabric, too? I have a bunch of the "golden afternoon" from connecting threads, coordinated fall colors, would love to use the different combos, but all the same block. (not to worry, I play by the rules, just want to know them.) :-)

OK. Normally, the swaps are for 12 blocks with the same pattern and fabrics. However sometimes we don't have enough of the same fabrics to finish the 12 blocks. So we use a different fabric to finish the 12 blocks in the same pattern.

Now: We have some people doing embroidery blocks and they might be slightly different.

After thinking about it, I don't have a problem with people sending in 12 blocks that are not all identical.

I don't think any swapper will be harmed by someone making different blocks because they will be getting all differerent blocks back anyway.

If someone has a problem with this addition, please let me know!!!! I just want everyone to have fun doing this swap!!!!

Blessings!
Carole

I made 12 blocks using the same pattern-- but different fabrics on each block--I do not see what difference it makes as long as I get 12 blocks back. Makes life more interesting!0
