    UM.....Quiltermomma, are you ready?
    I'm waiting for you!
    You just know how to twist an arm Ms. Grace. I just love working with you. Since we come as a pair and Red would miss both of us if we did not join in, then I will have some fun as well and sign up for this swap. Fall has my favorite colors and is what my house is in. I am going to have to work on the blocks after the other committments. Good thing the deadline is a bit yet. I know I have fabric so will get on this by end of month hopefully.

    Yes, I have lots of practice at arm twisting.
    I love working with you too & I can't wait to see what we come up with for this swap.
    I love the fall colors.
    I have to finish my chicken blocks first, then I will start on these.
    Let the fun begin....

    Here is an idea, knowing you like chickens, how about a fall background with a chicken on it. Then you get the best of both worlds. That way you can work with both at the same time. Ok, my mind is on overtime.

    Just keep moving forward

    I'm trying to hold off about doing more swaps for the time being (the key word being "trying"! LOL!), but I have a thought. Since there's a separate Halloween swap going already, why not make this swap fall-themed only, with no Halloween blocks? That way those who celebrate Halloween can join the Halloween swap, and those wanting just fall-themed blocks can join this one. And those who enjoy both, can join both swaps!

    Just an idea I thought I'd toss out.

    I've got a number of UFO's I'm trying to work on, too. I know all too well about doing so many swaps that there's not much time for anything else! Heck, I've got a pile of swap blocks that's over TWO FEET TALL that I *still* haven't done anything with. Isn't that pathetic?

    Red, I love your turkey! I'm pretty sure I have a similar pattern to yours. Love it!
