Description:

EDITED!--Dates changed to get it done sooner. I have places to go, people to see and things to do!

This is the final color, once finished, we'll all have enough to make a Rainbow quilt with them! I'm even thinking of making my blocks into Disappearing Nine-Patches--we'll see how ambitious I am when the time comes!

The idea is to have 4 partners for whom we will make five 12 ½” 9-patch blocks in specific colors, 4 to send 1 to each partner, and 1 to keep--not specific in the fabrics (except all cotton quilt fabrics), but more scrappy to use up some stash!

This swap was for 5 blocks of PURPLEs, light and dark or all scrappy--in the quilt pattern, these will be the upper left one and bottom right 4--look at the image to get the idea.

You can start anytime since it's sender's choice which scraps you have to use. The blocks will be 12 1/2" x 12 1/2" when ready to send.

Here is a general pattern to follow if you're not familiar with the 9-Patch. 5" charms will work if you have them to use, just trim them to 4 1/2" and use a 1/4" seam allowance.

The swaps will have signup dates as the 9th of each month and the 29th for the send-by. So sign up, and start scrapping!”

I'm so excited that I'll be able to assemble my quilt this month. Can't wait to see how it turns out. Can we post pics in the forum when their done?
