Beginners Quilting Swap

This will be the first in a series of swaps. Calling all beginning quilters!!!!!! This swap is for those who are new to quilting and would like to swap blocks without the fear of being judged or fear of their blocks being deemed "unusable". Seasoned quilters are always welcomed. We have alot of wonderful seasoned seamstresses/quilters who would be a nice asset to this swap,however,if you are one of these ladies,please dont expect perfection,or even something you would put in a quilt(but hey, you may get lucky) You will swap two blocks with two partners. Here are the particulars:

YOur block must contain at least 5 pieces. You may choose any pattern,any style. For beginners i would recommend a simple nine patch or a friendship star design. Dont get overly ambitious,and try to tackle something you may not be quite ready for.....smiles

The blocks must measure in between 10 and 12.5 inches.This will give you alot of wiggle room to play with.If you are concerned about measurements, always aim a little bigger than normal the blocks are senders choice,however,please keep your swap partners color choices and preferences in mind when constructing something for them. You can list your preferences below. If you dont find the blocks you receive to be usable in a quilt,remember, they can always be used for something:covering a notebook,making a pillow,etc. Please make sure to send something you would like to receive.......no backwards pieces,etc. and remember,practice makes perfect, that is what this swap is all about............ Have fun :-)
