I love your idea of using your extras between the signed ones!
I'm going to have to steal this idea!

I haven't ever participated in a swap before. I would love to do this with everyone. I can't wait to see how different everyone's will be.

That is stinking adorable!! I am going to make one for my dd's class to sign for the teacher.. And the siggy blocks from here would look cute as well, though might end up as a double or triple border lol

Hi!
I am wondering if it matters what color ink we use to sign the blocks with. Should we only be using black? Does the white material need to be white white or is off white ok?
I have both so it doesn't matter to me. Just curious if I can mix them up or not.
I have washed and ironed my fabric and ready to get started. It's been a while since I have sewn and I am really looking forward to getting back into it with this. I can't wait to actually make the quilt and see what everyone's looks like.

You can use any color ink you want, everyone should be using a white, white for the signature part.

Gosh, I have to keep checking with my post office to see what size bag/box I need to upsize to!!

If postage costs too much I might have to come and pick them up myself!!

By the way how many blocks are you making, ladies? I have just finished signed 35 so far, and trying to make more.
