    Raise the bar high, why don'tcha, ladies! LOL Can you say "intimidation"? HA - I can say, "determination", OK?
    I will be learning things. (A bit nervous about making the blocks exact size: I think I can, I think I can!)

    I looooove the blocks pictured. Red, I love the starfish, Judith, your blocks are amazing, & djmat, nice, I'm going to start too.

    Great job djmat. You have a great variety going on. They are looking great!!

    I am still working on what my last set will be and what fabrics to use. I need to buckle down and get them done.

    K-roll, simple blocks work great also. Like 9 patches, 4 patches, snowballs.....

    Happy New Year everyone. I hope that now that the new year is here, maybe we will have a few more people join us. This is looking like it will be a fun quilt to make.

    Great fun blocks djmat!

    Thanks kroll, I try and have fun with it. I usually make mine a little on the large side by an eighth and square/trim them up to the size I am making. That way I know they are right on.

    I have a simple fourth of july fabric set finished and am working on the last fishy set now. I hope everyone had a safe and nice New Years Eve. Mine was at home with hubby asleep early this year. We were both tired and ready to just settle in.

    Happy New Year everyone.

    Okay girls. I hope I got these pictures right. (New camera for christmas) Here goes the last two sets of blocks to share.

    Yay! I did it! The fourth is a 12 1/2" square and the other fishy is a 9 1/2".

    Thank you djmat! Your so sweet. I am hoping more swappers come in and show and tell their blocks with us. Maybe we could invite some of our buddies to join in the fun.
