    If one set has four blocks, will the whole set go out to one person or divided up? Could you send in more than one
    set of the same design? For instance, could you send 4 sets of all Christmas trees?

    Oooh! Such fun blocks! Pieced stars, santas, hot cocoa! I like the mix of applique and pieced blocks. Such fun!

    Finally finished the first block! I tried a different version first, but it took me five hours to complete one block, so I decided not to do that one (I never would have finished on time!)

    I found a more simple version that I really like. This one took me about 2 hours, and that time included some really stupid mistakes I had to frog stitch. When I pulled the paper off, I realized there was one seam I forgot to trim, but as a whole, I really like it

    Not sure what other fabrics I'll use, since I don't have much more of this green.

    Annt59, each participant will get one block from you unless we have a low number of participants and then it could be possible that they could get two or more. For instance I am planning on making 20 blocks and so far we have 16 other participants so each would get one of my blocks and 4 of them would be getting 2 of my blocks but I would make sure they got 2 different blocks. Hope this answers your question.

    i am PMing you with more info.

    Sleepy Hollow: The tree is wonderful! I was thinking about trees at one point because they are great 'improv' blocks. Definitely perfect for using up bits! Love the snow on the ground and the marble background!

    I am pretty sure the reason for having sets of four is to get some variety in the blocks to be swapped between us. That is why even if the blocks are done in different colors, it is repetitive as a shape and style block.
