It was a fun block to make. The block I made for quiltingnonie is called California.

There is just a slight problem you will have to be aware of. I talked with my postmaster about the .44 options to send mine and she said the only problem is those will go through the machine and will have a much larger chance getting torn up in the machine because of the bulkiness of the envelope. The 1.22 option with a larger envelope do not go through the machine so is a much safer option. Just an idea for everyone with that is all.
Silly me, I thought they needed to go into the flat rate envelopes from the post office...time to save some $$$.

Man, did I get two beauties in the mail today. I'm doing extra swaps with a few of you and check these out. We just decided to do extras about four days ago and if I didn't tell them what I wanted, I would say they have a box of completed 12 1/2" blocks on hand (LOL). And I'm posting a third block which is one that I did a couple of days ago for the Row Robin swap - great minds think alike. same block, different color and position of squares. Check it out!
and my black and white from toriabelle, and thank you

If the person you are doing the swap with is close to you it is cheaper I paid 82 cents to send blocks from FL to SC. But then I paid 1.35 to send blocks to Oregon. I pay 80 cents for 6 smaller yellow envelops.
