More nice blocks. Got two more s ets done today. They are Hannukah Need to come up with my last set and there is a boy dressed up in a scarf that could be done in blue but not sure if it is appropo. So may have to shop around since my idea for a piece block is not cooperating and dont want to do raw edge applique for a swap.

Hi morningcoffeegal ...

How fun! I hope you can share them when you are finished.

Thanks so much lynnie! They all were a lot of work really. The outlines on the applique takes quite a while if I want it to cover all the edges.

But, I am sure you know that... LOL!

Please share your blocks when you can. I know you are making cute blocks and everyone will love them.

Here is what my third set looks like. I am having trouble appliquing the eyes and mouth, they are so tiny. I bought some small buttons I could send along if you want. I used wonder under and ironed them on. Does anyone have any suggestions. Please let me know if you want me to send the tiny black buttons. These are 9 1/2" square blocks.

Got the patterns cut and some fabrics cut we are zipping along will post when I have them finished!

Hi sherry,
Many people use the ultra swede (sp?) for the tiny pieces because they hold up the stitching.

Just Pm'd to sign up for the swap, I'm going to make 4 sets. The blocks everyone has made so far look really festive and interesting. :-)
