I am also participating in the the civil war signature block swap that Melissa is hosting. I sent my blocks already and can you believe I forgot to take a picture? Two of my blogging buddies who are not in this swap decided to send me a block. This first one came from Stephanie right after I signed up for the swap. I was going to wait and share her block with you when I got my other blocks but...
then this past week I got another block from Cathi. It was a sweet surprise from them both. Thanks so much Stephanie and Cathi for sending me the blocks
And you all know about the International signature blocks I am exchanging. Here are the newest ones. I do not know how many I have at this point. I will count them at the beginning of the new year and decide if I will continue with this swap. Aren't they all great?
With Passion,Carrie P.

Love those aquas and reds. You're going to have some great quilts to make with your signature blocks.
It's going to be a lot of fun to see the quilts made with those aqua and red blocks! I love the signature blocks, and especially the international ones - that sailboat block is fabulous!
Lovely blocks! And, the signature ones are also great.
I love those red and aqua blocks together. After I saw Ryan's quilt at "I'm just a guy who quilts", now I want to make one also. Lovely signature blocks as well. Looking forward to seeing what you get back in the swaps.
I think the signature blocks with the extra designs on them are very interesting. I did signature block swaps several years ago and no one was doing anything like that.
Oh what a great pile of yummy red and aqua. I am slowly getting my siggies done too!
Swaps are such fun!!!
Great minds, etc., Carrie. I just sent off my red and aqua blocks this morning...and I forgot to take a picture! I was so happy to have finished them and take them to the post office, photographing them never even entered my mind.
I too am looking forward to seeing the agua and reds. What are your plans for them and will you be making a wall hanging of sometype with the signature blocks?
Hi Carrie!
Cathi sent me one too! :-) I have a little note on my side bar in hopes that other favorite blog friends who didn't do the swap will send me theirs for my quilt anyway. You are in quite a few swaps...good ones too!
Great blocks, Carrie! I can't wait until I can get back to swapping again!
Cheers!
I'm going to enjoy seeing what comes from the red and aqua swap blocks. I love the siggy blocks, they're so simple but make great quilts.
Red and aqua is one of my current favourite combinations! You are certainly getting a collection of signature blocks - must be fun receiving them from all over the world.
Love the blocks Carrie. Swaps can be a lot of fun.

I love your aqua and red blocks! This will be so much fun when we get them back.
The aqua and red swap sounds like fun-- they are such great colors together, it will be cool to see what you get! The signature blocks are really neat too-- they are all so different, and so personal.
