    As a person who made the mistake of making too many 3.5" blocks my first swap.....I appreciate seeing such guidelines set out. I don't want to take advantage of people, and felt bad when I realized what I'd done. Now I make bigger blocks, or just few small ones because they're nice to have too. Bigger ones are easier to make anyway, I've found, especially when appliquing.

    I finished my last set. They are 12 1/2" squares. It looks scrounghed up because I put the block under the printer to scan it. It really does not look that way. LOL. I will have to get the address. I support you Red on the 3.5" blocks.

    I guess that is how we all learn foxflower. I know I sure have made mistakes before. As one friend used to say long ago... as long as nobody died, there is still a chance. LOL! I still think about that when I make a silly mistake.
