      On my wee list are: Terrie, Lotti, Maureen, Connie, and Renata.
      But then I reopened it for anyone who didn't have a short list to be going on with. It was just that some of us that jumped in at the beginning were starting to get super silly long lists of names that they want to swap with. So if you check with (the new) guideline no 7, I recommend that you collect a short list of 4, stitch & post them up/out, then come back for more if you want to.

      Personally I have been trawling through my collection of saved pictures of quilt blocks to see which ones I want to play with - maybe in small scale...

              hummm 9 1/4" square(ish) down to two 9 1/4" x 4 5/8" - But I got the binding to go on beautifully...... and it will mess up the pretty pattern perhaps not. I'll just have to see if I can find a scrap or 2 of some other fabric I could use instead :wink:

                        Hi Vicki, It is open season in this mayhem - ahem swap, my current list is full, but I will be starting again sometime in May (I think) I'll definitely put a post up when that happens - you just need to keep an eye on us!

                              Hi Vicki, It looks like you are confirmed! When I have the 9 mug rugs done I will open myself up for more if I can. I hope to get them done by June - but it is an aspiration rather than a set deadline. :roll:
