So...10 sets owl? The ones that I've gotten in so far all have multiple sets and then others that have signed up or shown interest all seem to be doing several sets. It should work out..I'll do my best....there will be lots of different blocks!

You can also use dog fabric and use it to piece something fun in a traditional or your own design using your normal piecing methods. You don't have to paper piece.

Thanks for answering Marsha and Fox...that is exactly right! The blocks do NOT have to be appliqued...any other manner of making a block is acceptable. Regular pieced using cute fabrics, fussy cutting some doggie type fabric...paper piecing...whatever you are comfortable doing and will have fun making is what you should do!

On another note..rwquilts...I got your blocks today! Wow...they are adorable!!! They fit right into the kennel and I've had to break up a few nose to...well..not somewhere I'd like to sniff sessions! They seem to be getting to know each other well though! :)
