Fall 10 1/2 Blocks That's a wrap! All blocks back to you.

[javin22]

Feeling fall in the air? My favorite time of the year. Let’s have some fun with the gorgeous colors, that fall brings and make a throw size quilt. Please read all instructions before signing up and please ask me any questions you may have.
This swap will be all fall colors ( reds, oranges, yellows, golds, browns, greens ect.) Fall Batiks would be great for this. You can use different fabrics, use up scraps if you like, but please make the same pattern for all 20 blocks. Note: I will allow glitter, metallics, fair frost ect for this one.
Limit 20 blocks
100% good quality cotton or batiks
Wash all fabrics
Can be pieced, applique, embroidered, or a combination. No raw edges, must be sewn down properly.
10 ½ inch block. Make sure every single block measures at least that. It is better to have them a bit big, than too small, and have angry swappers. If you applique, cut your blocks at least 11 inches, as sometimes the satin stitch will draw the fabric in and then it won’t measure correctly.
If you have a background in your block, you can use fall color background or keep it tan, cream, gold, ect. No white. No muslin.
Would like lots of different blocks, (leaves, acorns, pumpkins, ect, any fall theme applique, or pieced block with fall colors. No Halloween colors or themes.
This would even make a great Secret Santa gift if you wanted to do that.
Please just send the $6.00 for return shipping. I have the padded envelopes to send them back to you, which will include tracking. International swappers- whatever you sent last time was just right.

Thank you perfect due date I'll see if I can get you a picture posted today, my sewing room is moved a little and my machine is on the floor while DH is cutting a whole in my nice big table so I actually will benefit from having a nice big even table now!
