I am planning on making some test blocks soon, but here are some more inspirational ideas. Remember you can do any type of block. Paper pieced, applique, embroidery. You can find some fun transportation fabric and make traditional-esque blocks with them. There is a way to make this swap work for any skill level!!
You could even make blocks with words instead of pictures, choo-choo, vroom, Go!, Take off etc..... Or how about some non-vehicle ideas? Like a stop sign, stop light, RR Crossing sign, walk symbol, RR tracks, speed limit etc .... Those would be super cute too!! If you are unsure, just ask here or shoot me a PM, I would be happy to help with ideas. This is a great swap for any wonderful little boy (or girl!!) in your life!! http://farm1.staticflickr.com/86/280...320738b8a7.jpg http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7042/6...c48c6bc383.jpg http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3054/2...0c417f4c0d.jpg http://farm6.staticflickr.com/5201/5...6cbb558103.jpg http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3110/3...5412a48c77.jpg http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3048/3...d1c757e0e2.jpg http://farm7.staticflickr.com/6069/6...52701a92ac.jpg Cheers!

Oh, I love quilts for little boys, I just finished an eye spy quilt for a great nephew. I have an idea for some blocks, I want in!
I am sending pm to you Rachel |
Great! Boys are the harder of the two... grandsons/granddaughters to think of quilts so I think this is a great theme. Thinking, thinking...

Maybe a silly question, but if doing paper piecing, should the paper be removed or left on when we ship? Seems like I have read paper should be left on until blocks are sewn together but others say remove first. I know it is pain to remove the paper which I wouldn't mind doing, but just wondering what most people would prefer.
