Now that I almost have the Siggie Squares & the Red/White?Blue Swaps done, I feel I can sign up for another Swap. And Santa sounds like a great one! Count me in for Option 1! Thanks ever so much!

Just finished doing my 3.5in siggie blocks. I got carried away , they were so easy, ended up with 228.
Ready to do another swap---sign me up for this one.
I like working with different sized blocks. Will do a couple of sets of 6.5 and 9.5 blocks.

Don't think I'll joint this one, but for those looking for Santa blocks, the book "501 Quilt Blocks" put out by Better Homes and Gardens has several Santa blocks in it. If you have it or can find it at the library it would be a good source (Didn't read the whole thread, I hope I'm not giving redundant information)

Siggy Blocks is a swap that is going on right now. You make a signature block, sign it with your name, board name and where you are from. We have a lot of swappers. I think 160. You can make as many as you want. I am making one for everybody, so I will have a block from every state and many countries from the people on this board. Check out the Siggy Block swap. I think the deadline to sign up is May 14th. They really go together fast. Its fun!!

New to the Board and don't have 3 days(LOL) to read every post so I'll just toss out my question on the Santa Swap.

I'm thinking of paperpiecing Santas. I'm thinking that the paper should remain on until the receiving quilter sews it into their quilt (or sashes it) so it remains 'stable'. Is this OK?
