    Thanks Anna for having my back with Almonds question! I haven't been on here in a couple of days so I missed it! Been sewing away on my blocks. I should have them all done by today. I love Kristen's gnomes with the mushrooms, too cute! I really like the dragonflies too. I'm going to save the links.....just in case. I did make a set of gnomes from Regina's pattern and just love how they turned out. I'll post a pic of them once they are all done. Oh, this is gonna be a fun package to open!!!

    I'm getting pretty excited as blocks are coming in now...what a terrific selection we've got so far! You guys are the best!!! Can't wait til I can swap thise little guys out!

    Also, just a heads up...Patrice has approved me doing a Winter/Holidays PP swap so I'll be posting that in the next month...only on this one, I'm going to open up the size to anything from 3" to 7" finished size which will give everyone a LOT more options for finding patterns...it will also make Linda Causee's 365 Foundation Quilt Blocks very do-able! Anyhoo...just a tease on the next swap.

    The winter/holiday swap sounds great Ronda! I am almost done with my sets for this swap. I might still do one or two twisters but I will have to see.

    Thanks for the heads up on this. I want to do some sewing on my 201 and paper piecing will work just great. I really like the size option.

    Okay gals, here's my(soon to be) roaming gnomes! I'll be shipping mine out soon. Ronda, I like the different size block idea for the holiday swap. Makes the quilt more interesting! I'll be in on that one too! This is a great way to use scraps!!!!

    Kristen, you could just make the raven and put a bigger plain border around the whole thing to make it bigger. Would be easier than making all those geese and I sure would love just the raven. He is so cute all in blue like that!

    Wow! Your gnomes are stunning. I strugled with the sepperate legs on mine but I like how that is resolved in these. Very cute and detailed.
    I hope I get one. He would fit right in my garden.
