    Cute tree red I love the creativity. And the snow ball is cute too. I'm almost ready to show off one of my winter tree blocks I'm working on and my threads came in so I can finish off the starry night blocks.

    So girls I'm thinking of doing something with dreidels or a menorah any objections? It would probably be a pieced block with the themed fabrics.

    Billi, I'm fine with a multi-cultural Holiday season. I am seeing a very unique holiday quilt in my future.

    Red, squeal, I love that print. Awesome block!!

    Thanks billi, I try and be creative with my blocks. I am thinking one in the Jewish fabrics would be fine billi. I had one swap that the girl did them all in that theme, and I had some complaints when they were received.. I am just saying.... I don't mind at all, but some will. Please don't take that wrong. I just have to be the hostess and let you know.

    Thanks so much Judith. I really like that fabric from connecting threads. It has a great hand to it. I try to buy American made fabrics when I can. It helps our economy.

    I spent the afternoon cleaning and folding up my fabrics rewinding my threads, ect... from charity sewing and the swaps. Sheesh, I thought I was keeping up, but, it took all afternoon.

    No worries I'm going to make them I think they will blend well with everything.

    I also like the multi-cultural idea.

    I'm not officially 'in' yet, since I haven't yet made my blocks. Still trying to get this last quilt finished, for gifting. I may 'cheat' and start some blocks, anyway.

    I haven't joined a swap forever it seems and Red, this one sounds like soooo much fun that I want to jump in the fun! I of course don't have my blocks done yet, but will get working on them shortly. I love that you give so many choices of sizes of blocks to make!
