Thanks for the infomation, Julie. So you keep the blocks until you swap enough rounds to make an entire quilt. Or so I think.. Anyway, I've had fun handquilting these. And to clarify, this is my first quilting swap....oops. Have a great week. Smiles, Beth

I read back through all the post and I'm thinking these blocks are suppose to be scrappy. I can make all blocks the same or must each one be different? My DH is going fishing tomorrow, so I have the whole day to sew!!!!!

Carmen, it is up to the sewer what the blocks will be. It can be scrappy or it can be coordinating. The center just needs to be white or white on white and not all the blocks have to be the same. I hope that helps.

I will have mine in the mail tomorrow or Wednesday, I sure hope I did them right! It always worries me that someone just might not like them.

I am sure your blocks will be just fine...I think we all worry if someone might not like them. But, in the end everyone is very happy with the blocks.
