Sounds great Evie, the surfers can be from my Woodys. LOL

I like the idea of attic windows for this quilt. Maybe make the bottom shelf something that looks like water and the side darker with stars for night or medium with clouds/sunset. I'm going to see what I have, great idea!
Have Fun,

Evie, I think your fabrics sound great also and an attic windows design would look really cute with all those different beach fabrics.

OK, sign me up please. I've been looking at this swap and just needed to find some fabric. Well, I found some fabric today and ended up buying too much...I thought it was 30 bags. Oh well, maybe I can incorporate the extra into the quilt. Thanks, Lori

Carolyn, sounds like a fun quilt. Has anyone given any thought what pattern they will use?

I'm pretty sure I'm going to use the Attic Window like Evie suggested. I had thought about a snowball block with watery looking fabric for the corners. I'll have to wait and see all the fabrics together before I make a final decision.

Glad you joined us Lori.
Have Fun,

Linda, a snowball block sounds good too. I agree, I think once we get all our fabrics it will be easier to deside on a pattern.

I've got all my squares cut, bagged, and ready to go. It was nice to be in an easy swap again. :) I'll send them out as soon as I get back over to the P.O.
