These blocks are darling. I’m going to try to make a set of 6.5 “ blocks since this is a size I don’t usually work in.

I am thinking I would like to try this. I have a question since I am new. Do you get the same size of block returned as you sent in for the swap?

I was planning to keep one block anyway. What do you think? Please be truthful as I want these blocks to be used.[ATTACH=CONFIG]587549[/ATTACH]The block is square, I just take lousy pictures.

I personally like lots of prints. I think anyone could work this block in. That being said, I do think that your pictures of 2 and 3 may fit better. I liked the third with the tone on tone fabric. They are super cute and creative!

Darcyshannon you will get the same number of block that you send but not necessarily the same size. Judith will try to make sure everyone gets a mixture of sizes of blocks I know she has done that in other swaps that I have participated in with her. Please join in with the fun can’T wait to see your blocks.
