    NDQuilts - although I really really like the idea of regular size blocks, I would much rather have more participation - ideally everyone - than finished blocks. I also think the undertaking of making many many - say 100 blocks - would be both time-consuming and expensive. As much as I think a quilt made of everyone's signature blocks would be awesome, I'm not sure the expectation is realistic - since I would not expect us to start this now, we can get an interest list for both going - or even mix it up a bit - that is if people want full blocks, we can exchange a mixture of both methods & those wanting full size blocks can add to the smaller rectangles to make those blocks complete. If I had a final list of 25 who were willing to make full-size blocks and 75 who only wanted to make rectangle with info on it, those wanting the full blocks would make 25blocks + 75rectangles and I would distribute them the way they came - everyone making the blocks would receive 25blk + 75 rect and those making rectangles would receive 100 rectangles only.

    Exchanging this way - everyone could finish off their own quilts the way they want to - those wanting a piano key border on front or back could easily do so.

    Well, I finally caught up with my just takes 2 BOM so now I get to work on these I hope to get the first 3 done in the next day or two and then off to doing this weeks. I like the idea of the signature blocks also, just depends on what the size is and how many as to if I can do it. Quiltnan, I am pming you for the excel sheet. It is so nice for you to do this for us!

    I guess I should post my week two blocks!! These are a little brighter than week one was. I decided to mix em up. We'll see how that works a little farther down the line.
