    Well, Joyce, as it was planned, I had thought we'd do one block a month, but so many have already finished, so wonder if we should do 2 blocks? Maybe 2 of the same block-perhaps switching prints around? I've been waiting on a few others to post that they've done their blocks to see if all fulfill their plan. Hopefully we'll see those soon.

    Hi Jean, hope all is good with you.
    I think you could be onto something there, Maybe do a different block every 2 weeks omitting Christmas & New year. That way we could end up with 20 blocks which is a good number of blocks for a quilt. There could also be a few spare blocks thrown in here or there which could be optional changes for People who maybe want to replace a block if they don't like certain ones...
    Food for thought xxx J xxx

    With two blocks, you would have the option to easily skip one if you are busy or just don't like the block that is picked.

    Two blocks a month sounds doable to me.

    Yes I will do 2 blocks for sure I was planning on it any way so I could make a bigger quilt. But I was gonna make them the same colors two just a like each month if that is ok.

    Everyone's blocks are so pretty. I enjoying seeing everyone's different fabric combinations.

    I have picked out my fabrics to use, I think. I plan to make my block tomorrow. Unfortunately, I'm having issues posting any pic from my i-pad. I was able to post pic a month ago. Now it keeps giving me a JPG error message. I don't have a clue what that means. I'll keep trying though.

    I'm for the plan to make 2 different blocks a month. I would love to have more blocks by the end of the year.
