I only hand quilt and am a beginner but would love to try with your help of course, if thats not too much to ask :wink: I am interested in making D6, it looks like a snowball type block to me. i would need any instructions you can give me.
Thanx

its a pretty straight forward block and an excellent choice for a beginner.

so, if I chose to do 2 blocks, I will be sending in a total of 36 blocks, right?

i think the lady meant she wanted to do block 12 but left out which row its in.
i don't think there's enough time in this swap to do 12 sets of 18 blocks. :lol:

www.dearjane.com has a grid labelling the blocks as Klue describes.
You find the block you want in the picture of the quilt, figure out which row (A-M) and which block (1-13).
Go to the grid, click on your block and you'll find directions for how to make it.
If you're lucky, it'll be a 5 inch UNFINISHED block.

can there be duplicate blocks ? I have never done any of the swaps and am afraid mine won't be good enough as a beginner .

if we get more than 18 sets going then we can start to duplicate blocks but i would wait until then.
i can go thru the blocks and find a simple one for you to do.
