    Of course you all are special!

    But, I think I'm going to decline this one.
    I'm actually partial to the cobalt blue colors and I know this isn't going to come out right, but I'm going to try to say it and hope it doesn't offend anyone.
    If I were to do yellow and blue, I would want it to be the cobalt blue. No offense against any other color/shade of blue. I would just prefer the one shade, know what I mean?
    I'm sure ALL the blocks are going to be beautiful...the ones from the B&W are great, but....I'm going to decline.
    Can't wait to see all the blocks!!
    I must admit, I thought the same thing... I like royal blues, very bright vivid strong blues, and equally bright yellows.

    But.... like kluedesigns, I don't think you need to like every colour for it to be great. I detest orange, but I use it quite a lot and love it in quilts. Same with the blues, I think the blocks themselves and the variety will make the finished quilts spectacular.

    Are you SURE you want to deprive the rest of us of getting a gorgeous cobalt blue and yellow block from you?!?!? ;-) ;-) ;-)

    I'm going to keep thinking....I'll check what I have. Really don't want to go out and buy anymore fabric. <GASP!> Did I just say that? I must be losing my mind.
    Going to give it a few more days, maybe.

    And I agree with Klue...I love making things with the others, but I just prefer certain colors.

    Is there a deadline for signing up for this swap?

    I'd love to participate, but I don't have very much yellow fabric in my stash and I can't afford to go out and buy more fabric right now. If I don't have to sign up right away, I can keep an eye out for some suitable fabrics at the thrift store over the next few weeks, and hopefully find something in time to join in.
