    I think going to do spiders and trick or treat candy. May work on them this weekend. Most likely 9 1/2 inch blocks.

    That ok?

    Do I understand that if I make 12 1/2" square blocks I might get 3 1/2" blocks in return?

    patti,
    When I divy up the blocks I will make sure to try and make the blocks be as close to the same as I can. It will depend on what is sent. There are three others that are making twelves so far that I know of that is... But, that is half of the fun of swapping! There will be an element of surprise.

    I think different sized blocks is what makes these quilts darling when they are finished. I love it that everyone has fun with thier blocks and makes them to suit the subject. It is so american... LOL!

    Just have fun girls and enjoy the process.
