LOVE them!!! So many beautiful combinations here, and I love the variety. A few other swappers had complaints about the sizing of the blocks, but I was fortunate in that only a couple blocks were more than 1/8" off. I don't think I'll have any problems using all of them.
Feeling super-happy after getting my first set of blocks, I went ahead and signed up for another month of the swap. Here are the nine-patches I've made for July:
I think my favorites in this batch are the sienna/tan ones. But I like them all.
As I've been making blocks for the swap, I've kept one of each color-combination for myself (because I thought some of them were so pretty, I had to keep one!). So in the end, I'll have 48 swap blocks plus 12 of my own blocks. I'm not sure exactly how that will work out yet in a quilt, but I figure I won't have all of the blocks until August. So I have some time to figure it out.
Yay, scrappy nine-patches!!!

Robin your nine patches look great..I too have done 9p swaps and if you would like some ideas you can visit my blog and see some of the quilt designs I came up with for my patches
I had most come out even but even still the layout accounts for that.
I can't wait to see what you design with yours they are fun to work with and there are many creative designs
How fun!
I wanted to join this one but by the time I decided I would, it closed. LOL!!
Next time!
Great blocks you got. Sometimes people sew and cut differently but I am sure you will come up with a setting that all of them can be used.
They are all so pretty!
Fun blocks!
Ooooh, you got a great set of blocks!! So pretty!
Oh happiness! I love nine-patches.
