Simply Sign Me Blocks

During the week I received my Signature blocks back from the Simply Sign Me Block swap. It was a shame that not everyone turned their blocks in but I am sure that happen in all swaps people sign up with good intentions and for one reason or another it doesn't happen. For this reason we all received a few double ups so all the blocks went out.
This was my block for the swap if you haven't seen it.

These are the block I received not including the double ups. They are from a wide variety of places. I can't wait to sew them into my project.

It will be a wall hanging I can hang in my sewing room. Now to choose some fabrics to sash it  and for the borders maybe.  I will see what happens. What colour would you use to sash it with?

Until Next Time

Simply Sign Me

Last year I sign up to do the Simply Sign Me Block swap. I thought this would be a fun project swapping signed block from all over the world. In the end there was 29 participating co ordinated by Marian at Seams to be Sew.
I selected  fabrics and a block out of 3 choices and made a test block. It was the right size but the space for writing wasn't right so a change of fabrics was needed and the centre block had to become the plain block for writing in.

I don't think this picture gives away too much about my block, do you?
Now I am happy with the fabrics. It is time to whip these blocks together and sign all of them, in time to post them so they can be divided up between everyone. I can't wait to receive my blocks and see what everyone made with what fabric they picked.
Sorry I can't share my block yet but once they have gone out and I have received my blocks I will share my block with everyone else. Then I have the pleasure of making something with the blocks. I may need to make 1 extra block and bring it to thirty blocks or here's an idea which just popped into my head a plain block which can be the title block on the front of the quilt.

 Until Next Time
