Hello everyone!

I am hosting a Signature/Friendship Quilt Block Exchange. If you are interested please join us. The quilt block example can be seen on this website: www.quilterscache.com/S/SignatureBlock.html


Rules:

1. Block size to be sent in will be 6 1/2".

2. The center piece of the block will be white or white on white only. The rest of the block can be what ever you like.

3. Print your name, city, and state and your username on the white portion of the block. It must be in black permanent marker or embroidered in black.

4. All blocks will be sent to me along with a self-addressed stamped envelope for your receiving blocks.

5. No embellishments.

6. You make 1 block for each person plus 1 block for yourself.


I will be taking sign-ups through June 15th. Send-in date would be by June 30th. I will email everyone with my name and address. I will be sending these blocks back to you on July 7th.


Good Luck Ladies!

P.S. Just a reminder...the directions make a 6 1/2 inch block. It states that it make a 6 inch block but that is when it is set into a quilt.

I wonder why it took sooo long for you to receive your blocks... must have gotten lost in the mail for awhile. I am so glad you received them.

Teresa...I didn't hear back from you concerning the email I sent you. I am sorry, but your blocks didn't arrive at my house. When it comes to these swaps I am very careful on keeping everything organize so nothing gets lost. With that said...I still took the time to look my house over for the missing envelope with your blocks. They must have gotten lost in the mail, I just don't know.... If for some reason they mysteriously show up I will certainly put them in the next swap.

Has anyone heard from Julie? I know that someone was looking for her on a different swap. I hope everything is ok. It's not like her to not keep us updated, and she hasn't been posting for awhile.
