Description:

Okay this is the first of several 12" block patterns that I thought I would trial with you all. The idea of this particular swap is that we each make a 12" log cabin block for a partner in the colour shades/tones they would like. If we try and use fabrics in colours of their own choice, later we could make other blocks, in similar colour ways (though not necessarily in the same fabrics), so we may all be able to ultimately piece them together and make a bed cover or wall hanging? So in this swap it is 1 x 12" block for 1 partner, international entry and only 4.9 ratings and above.
Email me directly if you feel you should be able to enter despite your rating. If you are new to swap bot and not rated as yet, email me directly and we can discuss it but I will not tolerate flaky swappers and there are a few 'newbie' swaps so you can pick up ratings quite quickly.

So I will make a block for my partner, but also make exactly the same block, with the same fabrics for myself as well. That way I will have made up two blocks but will keep one for myself. Then, when I receive a block from another swapper, I will have two blocks in the same pattern but differing fabrics.

My idea is to put a few different, straight forward block swaps up and if feed back asks for more complicated blocks then perhaps we'll do those too? Maybe a smaller sized block too later on.
