    Lisa, what about cows? You could make a pieced block out of cow fabric.

    Gwyn, you are too funny!

    Uh, how many people or sets? Last time I checked, there are around 45 sets, but I know individuals have mentioned making more sets than what is listed, but never confirmed with me one way or another. Why doesn't everyone double check page 1 and let me know officially? Thank you!!

    I have 47 Sun Bonnet Sues. Do I keep one for myself, or do I send them all?

    47 Sue's...are you kidding me? I'm making chickens, unless I go nuts and quit school and life, I will make only 24. I couldn't face 50 different sets of anything. That is about 100 individual blocks. Perhaps you should check with Guiness to see if it is a record. Each block is 1 square foot. 100 square feet...and some have extras? Too huge to think about. I'll promise 12 chickens and work toward 24, perhaps 12 of something else. I know a kitchen garden. Okay, i'm in for 12 chickens and 12 kitchen gardens. Smile,

    Gwyn:
    They are embroidered so there wasn't as much work to them. I chalked the idea of applique. I would be doing them years from now.

    BRT: I have 24 farmers ready to go.

    I'm playing with another idea. I was considering naming my farm, so I thought I'd make a name block. It's a 6 inch cream colored square framed up log cabin style in earth tones. I'm going to letter "Welcome to Friendly Farms" on it probably with pigma pens.

    If you ladies are interested in the idea as a set for the swap, I could leave the centers blank so you could name the farm anything you want.
