Lovng, sounds like you're ready to go! I have a mug rug to stitch up and get in the mail before I stitch more of these darling blocks! 
I love having a variety of things to do...which is good because I've also got a friend having a baby in 4 weeks and a granddaughter having a birthday and both of these require a quilt, so I'm a busy girl right now...but am still finding time to stitch one block a day as I go...ha ha ha! Good thing our deadline is set a ways out?

I am paper piecing away every evening, but these are for a round robin swap. Anyway, it's sharpening my skills for this swap!! Maybe I can knock out a block or two by next week for this swap! I have so many patterns and possibilities, it's hard coming up with what I want to make!

Lovngrandma, I have a program that lets me re-size blocks and that's what I did with the Card Trick block. You can find it for the 12 1/2" size on Quilter's Cache for free? Good luck!
Anna, sounds like you have plan...I have been pulling out various patterns and have a basket/flower blocks also that I'm going to give a try to...and an egg...had so much going on and haven't had time to sew much...but hopefully tomorrow will post my first set of blocks! Yahoo! Has anyone else made any blocks yet? Just curious?

Oh Rhonda, those are so beautiful. I want one I want one. Oh wait I have to sign up. Well I am in the process of a QAYG that I did wrong..had to tear it all out and start over but I want to finish that before I start on anything new. So looking at the end of the month to try some PP. I have already gotten some beautiful spring flowers patterns to try. I know I can do this.....I think I can...I think I can. I will be checking in everyday to see if anyone else posts their blocks. I need inspiration. LOL!
