Mr. Baldy is absolutely fabulous. I am really going to have to stretch to find some good ones. I have some fun bright prints that will help with the funky. Do any of you mind if I mix batiks with prints? Some have issues with that and I like to mix if needed.

i put alot of mine on batiks, why do people have issues with batiks????

Prints with batiks are good in my book. I've seen many, many beautiful quilts that mix types of prints and non-prints.

Glad we can use them then because I will probably do that especially for the feet and beak and hair on them. I have my eyes ready to apply then with beads. I do longarm quilting and find that when there are embelishments attached before the quilting is done, you just have to plan your designs around them is all. As long as they are not big and bulky, it works just fine, Just do not overload them is the key. Loving the blocks that are in the exchange. Question again, if I send in 1 set = six blocks, then I get six blocks back correct? If I send in 7 sets = 42 bocks, then I would get 42 blocks back?
