    Ronda you are a fabulous hostess!
    I completely agree with it being tooooo much pressure for you, Ronda, to appeal to all of our wants. Let us oooh and awww and you just randomly pick and choose. That is why it is nice to post photos so IF we don't get what we like, we can arrange for side swapping in addition to this swap. Thanks, Ronda, for all you do to head up this swap.



    Oh, dear Ronda, I know exactly what you mean when you say you worked all day on your beautiful flowers. Love your colors.

    Ronda beautiful blocks.. I worked on my pink flamingo. Making my own pattern... will post my demo soon as its finished. Working on my PP's in between my larger projects. I get tired of looking at the fabric on one of my larger projects fabrics and its refreshing for me to switch up and play with a PP design or block. The Caterpillar design is rolling around in my head and I really need to sit down and start sketching it. LOL Oh well there are so many things rolling around in my head.. except for my marbles..I lost those... Hahaha :P

    Ronda, you are amazing! I really love everything that I am seeing. I can't wait until this weekend as that is my time to sew. Got everything set almost (missing some greens etc) but I can start.

    Love all the blocks, I do have a favorite, the scrappy trees on the right scream my name.
    I really like the idea of side swaps if we love a block we don't get.
    I am thinking of waiting for my blocks and then making a few more that fit in with what I get, so I will have enough for a small wall hanging. I made an extra Cardinal to keep for myself

    Thanks everyone for the compliments, and Fraew and SewExtremeSeams thank you for your thoughtfulness regards the block swapping. I promise not to give myself a heart attack you guys but am jotting down notes just the same.

    Jenniky, I know what you mean about fitting these blocks in between larger projects...sometimes you just want to work on something smaller and I like to use up some of my scraps...keeping in mind that as Bonnie Hunter says..."your fabric scraps cost the same as your larger pieces". Some of my scraps cost waaay too much money! Let's keep posting our blocks to keep us inspired!
