CraftMad Family Quilt Block Swap - New Year, New Swappers

We have gained a few new quilt block swappers over on CraftMad - Beth & MrsA have decided to join our little swap group, so with Mandy, Merry and myself, we now have 5 swappers - mostly beginners :).

This year we are swapping a 12" block of the makers choice, in the receivers' colour preferences :)
My preferences for this year are Rainbow colours with white.

For Beth

I hope Beth has received this by now - it was posted ages ago, and she is only two suburbs away :)

FNwF - Show and Tell

It was nice to spend some time in the sewing room again - Mr Fixit was happy to be ignored :)

I really didn't get much sewing done on the Friday - just faffed about tidying up fabrics, and selecting my next lot of blocks and fabrics, and cutting them ready for my next Farmers Wife session ..... but once I had cut, I just had to sew ....

Block 31 - Evening Star

So, on Saturday,  I got to sew some more Farmers Wife blocks - I am really enjoying this project.  I have even found a new love of 6 inch blocks  LOL

I love HSTs!

Progress so far - 11 blocks

11 DOWN ............... 100 to go!
