--one ”shimmer block” each round

shimmer block

Each block should have a plain white or tone-on-tone white background. The other choice of color/colors will be recipients. Be sure to post below which colors you want to go with your white back ground every round, otherwise the block colors will be whatever the senders cares to make.

Recipients be sure to post if you want 2 different colors or if you want the same color in 2 different prints on your shimmer blocks.

Example: outer corner colors yellow, center pieces in navy blue

Or

Light Purple print in the outer corners and darker purple print in the center pieces

Do your best work and always send what you would be happy to receive.

Swap-on! Perkl8r

I would like the corners in yellow and the centers in any bright colored prints with a plain white or tone-on-tone white background!

Check out the link and see a picture of a quilt made with these blocks.....very pretty. I am making a scrappy quilt with mine except I want all my corner pieces yellow to create a pattern.

Have fun with this one!

Should the finished block be 10 x 10?

ChrisAnne 12/ 3/2015 #

I would love my blocks to have dark purple on the corners and any shade/pattern of purple or lavender for the inside.

This is going to be so much fun!

The blocks we mail will be 10 1/2X 10 1/2 but once they are assembled into a quilt they will be FINISHED INTO A QUILT TOP AT 10 inches.....I sure hope that helps!

...I didn't mean for my message to be screaming just trying to clarify....sorry! I know that all caps means screaming to some folks and I certainly did not intend that!

This is a new block for me and I am looking forward to learning something new! I hope others want to join us!

I will wait to set up round #2 of this swap until we have a few more folks interested enough to join this round. If we don't have enough people interested I would be happy to do private swaps with @ChrisAnne or anyone else interested.

ChrisAnne 12/29/2015 #

I am going to work on a block for you @perkl8r tonight and tomorrow. I have these two days off work and will not have a chance to quilt again anytime soon so I will use your colors and if more join us, I can tackle those at that time.

excellent @ChrisAnne thank you for your interest and participation in this swap.

I would like green on the corners and purple for the center. Sorry for waiting until the last minute- hope I didn't mess anyone up !
