Thank you guys for suggestions...for some reason, I don't see anything weird about making a purple or blue pig, but wonder if it's weird to make a green dog? LOL!

Here are the other two blocks I've got ready to go... I think I posted one scotty dog earlier, but I bought some new fabrics and liked this one better...

That will give me a total of five sets and I will be done! HOpefully I will get them done by next week...

I prefer more normal colors but I know this is a "Funky" Dawg swap. Love your blocks and would love to have them in my swap.

I'm half way thru my 5th set ! It's so much fun I hate to stop, but, I think 5 sets will be it. Hope to get them in the mail next week. BTW, Sandpat, will 5 sets fit in a $4.95 envelope do you think ? or should I divide them ? Pat

I did four sets with the cat swap and pat did so well with packing I think she would be able to fit them all but wait and see what pat says just incase.

quiltpd...I think they will fit. You could check to see if your PO has the Padded flat rate env. I haven't used one, but I've been told they are a little bigger. I bet they will fit in just fine. If they don't, I can let you know and you can send additional postage via Paypal if needed.

No the big boy is Cowboy who had to be put to sleep in February, Hemi is the replacement & a black borzoi puppy who has pretty much worn me out!
All of you will most likely be blessed with some of his black hair on your quilt blocks from me! As its impossible to avoid!
But if you all like dogs, maybe it won't matter!

PS one of these days I'll change my avatar!

I have dogs too and that's why I have lint remover next to ironing board, not saying you won't see any hair but I'm trying not to send it abroad...LOL
