Welcome to my Quilt Block Swap!!

Sign up by June 7th
Mail out by June 30th
Partners assigned -June 7th

All skill levels are welcome! Beginners can do these designs!

This swap is to show you how to use my shortcut methods to make Quilt Blocks!!
You'll sew fabric together and then cut out a square from the center creating a Pieced Square
These become Boston Blocks / Half Square Triangles/ Star Point Blocks/ Wings Blocks and more.



The Quilt Block you use needs to be one I designed.
You will get a partner and you and your partner will exchange quilt blocks.

You need a 2 1/2" template.
If you don't have one let me know and I will send you one for free.

Use 100% cotton --prewashed or not is up to you.
Don't use borders to make it 12 1/2".
Pm me when you receive or mail out.

Please make sure to read the general rules that apply to all swaps here at the Quilting Board:
RULES FOR SWAPS AND SIMILAR ACTIVITIES - Updated 8 December 2010

thanks.

Let's try this and see if it works. This is in the user defined section.

to get there without a link
you can click on home.
scroll down below the first section.
You will see a gray strip that says user defined Topic Lists and Tags.
Click on that and it will take you to a page where you can scroll down to the bottom and find my sections.
I have Workshops and Classes / Blocks of the week by Rhonda / Shortcut Blocks by Rhonda/ Pictures by Rhonda.

I also just added the Shortcuts section and my Block of the Week sections in tags below here. Just scroll down and you will find tags on the left side and you can click on those to go to either of those sections.

Hello, gang!! I am in again for June! Thanks, Rhonda for coordinating this swap. I am having lots of fun learning new techniques.

I have picked which block I'm making for June. I'm making block Amelia or Verna. I like both. I guess it will depend on what colors my swap partner likes although I can image these 2 blocks in lots of color combinations. Which block are you choosing?
