Linda, did you finish all of those last night? You have another popular pattern. Why don't you print a few to take to your craft booth. You could put a photo and charge a dollar or two, or give them away when someone purchases one of your readymade ones.

LOL! I have 16 to make. I was up until 3 AM this morning and worked on aprons and cup cozies. Today I brought a display rack in from my craft house, hung up and tagged all the aprons and table runners, and took some of the fabrics I won't be using before the sale back to the craft house (trying to clean up the dining room a little). I also finished a Christmas table runner, cut out and made 2 aprons (one turned out XXL size - LOL!), and cut out some towel toppers, and will make some of the microwave bowls later. I seem to be able to work better from 11 PM until 2 or 3 AM. LOL!

When I was in my 50s, I did that a lot too. No more.

I think we are almost done with this swap. This was fun and I love all the fabrics! Stay tuned for the Valentines Swap that I will post in December.
Joyce - have you received all the squares yet? I think most others have received them all.

I've started putting the borders on my blocks. Will use this in between Christmas projects. I am using a green with gold dots and a cream with gold stars for the border like Beverley did. What do you think?

That looks good, but my favorite is still the original pattern you posted.

Way to go, Marilyn. I've been looking for my fabric and know what I want but have't found it yet. Going on line this week. LOL!
Thanks, Denise. It is lacking the cream sashing strips but you can get the idea. LOL!

For those looking ahead, www.fabric.com has a quite a few Valentine prints, but lots less than Christmas. More will be out at Hobby Lobby, JoAnns and Hancocks in a few weeks. We may have duplicates since there are less fabric patterns available, but that should not be a problem. Many quilts use multiple blocks of the same prints. You can make four 5" squares from each of these 10" squares, and there are lots of Nickel Quilt patterns.

Hi Ladies, I was just on eBay and found a yard of Valentine fabric, and ordered it. Then I went on etsy and typed in Valentines fabrics. Wow. They have a lot. Some are from fabric shops, some are from stashes. A lot to choose from. Watch the measurements. Some are fat quarters, strips, half yards, full yards, as well as scraps. Have fun looking.

WOW! I wouldn't have thought about Etsy as a place to get fabric. I have bought fabric on eBay before. Thanks for the info. I'll be posting for Valentines signups the beginning of December.

To all of this group who swapped 10" squares with me, (us), I wanted to send you a Christmas Card with a tuck inside. So I mailed them today. Please, when you open it remember I did it out of love. You are not obligated to do the same. I don't want to upset anyone. I just thought it would be different than a teabag. So watch for your funny envelope made from scrapbook paper and enjoy. Merry Christmas friends and I look forward to our Valentine square swap that is coming soon. Farm girl hugs to all.
