    I had said I was going to make the Balkan Puzzle block for this swap, but I was working on it at a retreat over the weekend and it was just giving me fits, so I decided to make a simpler block. I'm not sure what the name is right now, but am attaching pictures of two of the blocks I made. I hope this is not a problem. The blocks really are square - they just look triangular because of the angle at which I took the picture.

    Oooh, you have some gorgeous colors. I love them both, but the first one is my favorite. Any block you choose is fine with me. :-)

    By way of a reminder, registration for this swap closes June 30th and blocks are to be mailed by July 15th.

    Please check the activity link, http://www.quiltingboard.com/group_a...jsp?gracnum=40 , to be sure that you are registered correctly. If you have selected a block pattern, but it is not indicated on the activity, please let me know and I'll add it. If you want to do an additional set, please let me know that so I can record it. If you will not be able to complete the project by the deadline, please let me know that also and I'll remove you from the list.

    As a reminder, the blocks are to be 100% cotton, pre-washed and 12.5 x 12.5 in size.

    So that everyone ends up happy, please do not overexpose them to smoke, pets or perfume. If these are issues, you might consider gently washing the completed blocks and pressing them before sending them in order to freshen them up. These things have serious health implications for some of us.

    When you are ready to send your blocks, please PM me and I will provide my address. When the blocks are received, I will indicate that on the activity site also.

    Happy quilting!

    Hi, all - I've been "peeking" at this forum for a few weeks now and with all the gorgeous blocks I've seen posted, I would really like to join, too.
    Dagny - I am undecided about what block I will be doing but will let you know when I make a decision. (So many blocks, so little time!!! :lol: ).
    Thanks!
