After all this you still want to? I would think by now that all your dreams are in red/white/blue.

Please send them in ,this board is very understanding ,we all are at different skill levels, mine are not as fancy as some of the others,but I sent them anyways, keep making them, I made big 4 patch blocks when I first started, and I am doing a little bit harder each time you will only get better with trying new things

rubia, S
end them in! we all have to start somewhere. I would be happy to have one. When I first started to quilt I was so proud of just getting one finished. I look back and it was pretty bad. LOL But you have to keep at it and it will get better. I received one in a swap another group ( home group) and it was crooked and to small. I just squared it up and added a narrow border and it was fine. If this was a perfect world it would be very dull.

Deb, thank you for posting the pictures. This is so cool! It must be so much fun to get to see all the blocks and also overwhelming and exhausting! I think I see some blocks that I haven't seen before. I hope you are having fun with all the work. Thank you for taking the time to do this. The pictures are wonderful. Thank you again. :-)

I will also post the newest ones to arrive as the come in, I have the first sets all ready to go as I said before. I do apologize if some of you receive sort of the same combinations. I was trying to keep your color scheme and styles consistant. Some of the blocks just jumped right next to others and said they wanted to play with them...so heeding the threads of little blockettes, that is what I did.

Okay, in going over the roster that was started, and noting those who say blocks are being mailed, I still have 16 who have not said the blocks were coming or they had to drop out. I will PM those 16 of you, please let me know if there is a problem. I want to get all of them completely mailed on Monday, June 7th.

Wow Deb,
You have done a lot of work! I was thinking about hosting a swap but I think I will let the pro's do it.
You have done a great job!
All the blocks look awesome.
I am already planning my sashing color for my quilt.
Thank you again for the great job you have done.
