thank you ladies for all your help getting the lin/pattern up for everyone, you are the best.

note, in the previous rounds of this swap (2013) I received some blocks that were 9 and 1/2 inches but that's ok because I can always cut them down....be sure the blocks you send are at least 9 inches

The last batch I sent to my partners in 2013 were actually 9 & 1/2 inches so my partners will have to cut them down to 9 inches before using them in a project.

I will attempt to send 9 inch blocks this year...so no one has to go behind me and cut down my blocks.

I have a pretty wonderful selection of these blocks that I collected last year and hope to add some neat ones this year too!

I'm the one that is sending the 9 1/2" blocks, by following this pattern that is the size these will be, or the size that mine were/are. Have already gone thru the ones that I received (including an 8 1/2") and adjusted the size, so now I have no need of a 9" block, will drop out of the swap, but you swappers have alot of fun with this interesting block, I'll miss you.
