twisted your arm, huh KS? lol

ok......here's one shot....it's not all the blocks that came in...some have differnt ones in their sets. Amazingly, would you believe we had the same Penquin fabric from Australia as we did from NY, the same frame fabric in a few different sets, the same snowflake fabric in a few....it was crazy!! lol

So...some of you have duplicates (or more) depending on how many sets you sent in. There was no way around it.

Anyway...........drum roll please........here are SOME of the "windows" you will be seeing in you sets.

These are not sewn together...just layed out.

I'll take another shot later and post it...my camera battery died. Roll Eyes

Enjoy!!!!

Oh, I just love the peek, and looking forward to getting the pretties back, and to get sewing. I'm so excited! great job everyoneSmile

LOL Ommma, @ the penguins, most of the fabric here is imported from the USA, spose that's why it's so exspensive, I nearly sent blocks of santa, and the elves and penguins on surf boards, the Aussies idea of winter print, hehe

Thanks for the peek. They look real interesting. Cant wait to get them back and put together.
We had snow showers here today to. Iam not a fan of winter and plan on staying in and sewing all winter. I sure have enough to keep me busy.
This was a fun swap. Today i started looking for spring windows. Looking forward to spring to.
