quote"Pam P What a colorful card J50! I had to look up how to do that block (because I don’t know very many blocks by name)and while it seems like it should be simple, I think the small pieces and the square motif fabric would have made that challenging for me. Nice card!""

Thanks Pam. I have done disappearing 9 patches but never a 4 patch and it was the right size. I used 1 blue and 1 raspberry solid colored fabric and 2 of the square motif fabric.

Now I wish I could conquer the neatness factor!!! But I do have fun and that is what counts!

Got a lovely card from Magie-Sue. Looks like paper piecing or she is really good at piecing. The corner fabric is actually a stripe. Love the fussy cutting of the center flower.

My son brought my mail in today and sent me a text that he thinks my post card came! I am camping this weekend and can’t wait to get home to open it! I will be sending mine to Judith sometime next week as I wasn’t quite finished before I left. So exciting!

j50, thank you for posting the photo for me, and for your kind words. The card was pieced in the hoop on my embroidery machine. I am not that good at piecing but it was great fun with my embroidery machine!!! Great swap!!!

Today I came home from my weekend trip to see that I received this pretty postcard from Judith1005! It is a mini "Depression Block" postcard in such pretty colors. Thanks so much Judith, it really brightened my day.
