Late Fall Chicken Quilt Block Swap

[Marty1876]

Found a few chick-mix fabrics, with coordinating colors...We have another cloudy, windy day... I am home alone...going to find a block I like and get started, who can go wrong with chicken fabric

I found a lot with chickens, and I'm trying to decide how to go about it too.

There are only 3 of us, which is OK to me, but that means we have to optioin of either sharing more with each other by making 12 a piece (maybe in 4 patters) so we can each still have 12 new blocks to work with, even if there are only a few of us.

OR, we could make extra large blocks if we want. Any thoughts fellow quilters?

This sounds like an awesome idea. My quilting skills are not quite up to par to be included though.

I wish I had more time.. I would be so in!
but my husband is getting ready for another deployment and I'll be up to my eyeballs trying to get stuff done around here that requires his help before he leaves.

*goes hunting for poultry patterned material anyway*

Yes, when you send your blocks too me, just let me know. When its time to send back, I'll let you know how much it is and I'll ship from here. No problem.

Hi Fellow Quilters!

We are up to 5 folks who are sewing 12 x 12 blocks. I think, if nobody else joins in the next week, we might be able to make 10 each, and everyone will get and give 2 to everyone. If another joins, we'll make 12. (still 2 each) but if more join, we'll just make it one block per person.

How does this sound???
