Many of us are open to doing more than one block a month, you could cruise the list. Find themes that could work with what you have on hand and pm the other person to see if they are open to an extra block.

Great idea NorBana. Due to time constraints, I don't have a star by my name to be available for sideswaps, but I'd make an exception here for your circumstances 7armadillos.
