    I like it!! It looks great to me! I hope that I get one! :thumbup: :thumbup:
    I would agree. It is a lovely block, but pretty busy--could just be I'm kind of plain, however. :-)

    Regarding - "You make 12 blocks, all alike and send them to me along with a self addressed, stamped envelope for return postage... what ever it cost to send it to me, it will cost to return your blocks to you...so be sure to put enough postage on your envelope.

    Please let me know which block you will be making so we avoid having duplicate blocks.

    I will send you back one of your blocks and one each of 11 different blocks..

    Please mark EACH ONE of your blocks with a little slip of paper pinned to each block , or a sticky label can be used. Please include your message board id , your real name (optional) and the block name .

    If you want to make multiple sets, just make sure you have 12 blocks of each pattern. You will receive back as many as you send."

    NorBanaquilts, I think I screwed up! I just went back to double check the specifics of the swap, and realize I didn't do all my blocks exactly the same and I did 2 sets. I was playing with the fabric and having such a good time, I totally forgot. I think all the blocks are variations of the 9-patch. Do you want me to just send the 12 that are alike? It isn't a problem if you don't want the others. I can always use them with the ones I receive or another project. I nearly forgot about the extra envelope and postage too. You might want to post a reminder. :-)

    Brenda, Are they the same pattern? What makes them different??

    I just added this to my original post.
    I was playing with the fabric and having such a good time, I totally forgot. I think all the blocks are variations of the 9-patch. I'll see if I can post pictures.

    I'm sorry the pics are so big. I tried to resize, but it didn't work.

    Thank you. You are so sweet. I will try to mail them tomorrow. Thank you for your input. This is my first block swap, so it is a learning experience. I'm learning so much! Thank you again for hosting this swap. I really appreciate all your hard work and organization. :-) Big Hug!
