    Going to the desk top to check my patterns. I have about 4 CD loaded, mostly Carol Doak's, to bad they are not compatiable for the newer operating systems.
    Thank you for the welcome, hopefully I will have better luck once I try to post pictures.

    Anyone want gnomes in their garden? There are so many possibilities with this swap so please excuse me if I go overboard.

    Anyone have a pinwheel pattern with a stick? I think that would be cute. I tried to find something online but have not been able to find anything.

    SheriR, soo glad you found us! Yea! Bumble bees sound great!

    Just one note on blocks everyone...so glad you're all thinking of all the fun things to make, just remember whatever's in our gardens, is real. LOL! How do ya'all feel about weeds???? Perhaps I'm the only one with weeds, and truthfully, I'm not sure I want weeds in my fabric garden...thanks! Just changed my mind.

    Welcome Anna! Of course Carol Doakes is one of the best known Paper Piecers...I own a book by Linda Causee called 100 Paper Pieced Quilt Blocks which includes a CD and the option to print out blocks from a 2" to an 8" size. There's a great section on garden blocks. I will likely use at least a couple of her designs. Maybe we can get a list going of possibilities, not to mention some of the free patterns on the internet. I'm working on a Carolina Lily right now and will post a picture when I get one block done. It's a bit time consuming.
    is the 100 PPquilt blocks book Carol Doakes as I couldn't find this title for Linda Causee? Robbi
