Swaps

I have recently joined two swaps. The first is a vintage sheet swap run by Chaletgirl. I only had time to find two sheets and here they are, I really liked them both and I can't wait to see what I get back.

I have also joined with with Christine's Nine Patch swap in reproduction fabrics now how could I resist?

I thought I would use this Dear Jane FQ to make my first 12 blocks for this month. I didn't have enough of one background so I used two different backgrounds.




Only to find I only had enough for 11 blocks!!!!!!!! Oh well, back to the drawing board I guess.

I have been using 25cm full width strips as I realised the fat 1/4 just isn't enough...ultimately it doesn't matter...we will love them anyway!

Hi Bernadette,

I wish I'd known of the sheet swap! It sounds fantastic!!

I would like to be in a swap where we swap pieces of wool/tweed jackets to make wool apliques. What do you think?

Great use of the DJ print!

It was lovely to see you the other day. Your photo here sure looks swish!!
