Quilt Blocks for Beginners - Intl *EDIT Sept17

This is the second in a series of swaps designed for anyone who is new to quilting. It follows my Quilted Fabric PC Swap which can be found at

http://www.swap-bot.com/swap/show/5371

While this swap is primarily for anyone who is pretty much a beginner, experienced quilters are also welcome!

For each of your 2 partners you will make one 12" square (finished size), 100% cotton, quilt block in any pattern of your choice. Please refer to your partners' profiles for their colour preferences.

There are a number of good patterns here for 12" blocks:

or you can google "easy+quilt+blocks" for lots more ideas.

If you want to make fall/winter holiday themed blocks, such as for Thanksgiving, Hallowe'en, Christmas, New Year, Hannukah, etc., please check your partner's profile first, or contact them, to make sure it is acceptable.

You will NOT add batting or backing or quilting. When you receive your blocks, you will be able to use them for whatever you like: cushion covers, front of a tote bag, padded table mat, or maybe even as the start of a little lap quilt for yourself!

The 3rd swap in this series, Quilted Fabric Wallhangings for Beginners, will follow this one.

The Rules:
1.You must have a fully completed profile (not just a few words).
2.You must have a rating of at least 4.6 with no one ratings in the last 6 months.
3. You must have at least 5 substantial, rated swaps (no electronic/cyber, letter, list, purchased PC, etc. swaps) by the sign-up date.

While I ban after sign up date and reserve the right to do so for any reason I see fit, please do let me know if you have any concerns with anyone who has joined.

If you have any questions, please leave them in the comments section below so that everyone can benefit.

Happy quilting!
