I'm thinking about a block with the word "Joy" on it -- the first letter of my name -- and a very important word to me in my faith. Or -- I might do a block that communicates "joy" rather than spelling it.

This the creative part!!!! :thumbup:

let's decide on a block size for those who are considering a swap.
9", 12" ???

Glad you got it going. My username is what I had on my motorcycle license tag representing that I am a happy lady. Sooooo, I guess mine would have to represent something happy and free. uhm! let me think! :roll: :wink:

I don't know if I'd be up for a swap, but my name is the day I got married! Lovely barefoot wedding on Grand Cayman Island. Then got back to NJ in a snowstorm!

Hmmm, You could be more creative with 12" but if they were put into quilts 9"s would make for a more interesting quilt.
I guess I'm leaning toward the 12." What does everyone else think?

Lets talk!

I'd have to go with ANNIE'S CHOICE. I love that block.
