:: May 22, 2006 Block Swap
My block swap package arrived last week. I am so pleased. All the blocks play so well together (It makes me hope that my contributions found good friends and weren't too much of black sheep). Every time I walk by them I stop and take a minute to admire. Jessica either put them together randomly and they just jived, or she spent That Much Time assembling packages and she's a genius. Either way, she rules! The idea of using the same four solids worked out so well. She was really on top of things and the turnaround was quick so it was all very satisfying. And now I get to decide how to turn these guys into a quilt. Right now I can only imagine doing the same thing Jessica is doing for the charity quilts -- a plain white background, with the blocks set not-quite-symmetrically. She's sure to come up with some other lovely ideas so I'll sit back and wait for a while. Here is who made my blocks! From the top, left to right: Thanks to the ladies who made my blocks, and double-triple-quadruple thanks to Jessica. I hope there is a block swap II very soon! posted by in Mail , Quilting , _____-Alongs
