Description:

Each month (or so) you will use the "sew as you go" method to make your partner 1 striped quilt block ~ 12.5" X 12.5" and the only two requirement is you must use no less than 6 different fabrics. Also NO batting. You will use some plain or leftover cotton fabric you have hanging around.

When you have enough squares to make a quilt, you will add your own batting and whatever you pick for a backing.

Here is the awesome tutorial you will use for this block!

I love Jenny!

In the video she uses backing, batting and then the strips. In ours we will only use a piece of fabric to sew the strips on to.

You can start right away ~ senders choice in fabric! I have made this International too because you can fold your block in 3rds and it fits in a business envelope!

I am SO excited about this swap!!

Please, if you have any questions let me know.

Yay, I've been waiting for the next one of these!! I'm going to make sure I can get my block done before signing up though, as I've been super busy. I should be able to get it done though.

I'm hoping this is ok--I'm making my block 13" square, in case my partner would like to cut it into four 6.15" squares. If this is a problem, I can always trim back down to size if preferred.

I hope my partner sending to me will do the same, but it's ok if not. I have lots of the 12.5" size, I just need more 6.5" ones for a particular quilt, and I like to have a choice to cut or not.

I got mine made today. I had a sew-in day with a friend. Lots of fun.
