I am sending 2 sets, so there are two blocks to view, What do you all think?

Welcome back. Your block looks excellent in batik fabric. Nice job!

We are all our own worst critics. I was not 100% pleased with my color selections either but so many posted that they liked them so I like them better now. :lol:

And as so many others have posted batiks just seem to play nicely together no matter what. I can't wait to get the rest of mine done. I thought I could do this swap from my stash, silly me! I went out and bought a bunch more batiks to mix and match with the Geese all around block. Everyone's blocks are so great. It will be really exciting to see what everyone puts together with these blocks.

Great! I added you to the activity page. The blocks are due to be mailed by July 15th. You can read all the details of the swap on p. 1 of this thread.

If you want me to record a particular block selection for you, just let me know and I'll do that. When you are ready to mail the blocks, PM me for an address.
