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 May 15th. Send-in date would be by May 31st. I will email everyone with my name and address. I will be sending these blocks back to you on June 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.

Julie, I am taking a break from swaps ( unless there is a hankie swap!) until after I get back from Haiti. I'm just too busy right now. I had fun doing the other 2. Thanks!! Mary LD

Margaret...you can start the blocks right now if you would like. As of right now we have 12 ladies total. So you would have to make that many for sure. When sign-up is over...I let everyone know how many blocks to make.
