I see some really pretty blocks. I love the colors and the patterns.

Sunny,I need to back up and have my name taken off for the third set. I will do two. I'm going to be on the road before too long, back and forth helping my daughter to move her things into the new house since her husband can't help. He can just barely walk so he can't lift things using his cane or walker, and then we'll be going on vacation so I'm not going to have much free time for a while.

OK, I've brought this over from the first post so that everyone can make sure that they are on the list and to check for any other errors etc. Kim was kind enough to point out an error to me earlier and, with the horrible internet service I have right now, I am getting bumped off-line (right in the middle of posting) often these days so please don't hesitate to send me any corrections!

Thanks!

This brings our tally up to 19 total squares and an even 20 if Kassaundra's coworker's wife joins up. YEA!

I did get the LOVE rectangle done finally but I'm not sure I like it well enough to use as a pattern now. I've got to find my camera so I can take pics to show you all.

How do you do the 3D flowers and the multiple petal ones?

I see some really pretty blocks. I love the colors and the patterns.

Kate my sunflower pattern uses the popcorn stitch for the petals. The 12" I just made also uses a different version of the popcorn stitch for the center part.

I got a pm from Bama girl saying she wanted to join too so I hope she posts cause I have already added her to the list.

No problem! Will do.

Quote: I use the popcorn stitch a lot. It adds a lot of dimension. I am experimenting with some 3D flowers on this swap. They are def more work though.

 

[SunnyDawn]

Thanks for the update!

I'm still down for a third set. It gives you 18 and will be 19 if Kassaundra's friend signs up.

My daughter and her husband may have to look for another house because the inspection showed more repairs than they can afford to do so they could be here another 30 to 60 days depending on what they find. They're looking at a couple of other houses tomorrow. I hope one of them works out for them as school starts the 8th.

Thanks, I really do want to try something fancier, but can't read the patterns.

Betty it's been amended on page 1 ~ post 1. We are now up to 20 participants as of now, but of course that might change by the deadline tomorrow. Maybe 21 if Kassaundra's friend signs up. Woohooo!!!!
