Group A will receive patterns every two weeks...Group B will receive patterns every single week...on Sundays...starting today.

Prizes will be awarded (my choice of prize)...to each group for each week/two-week period (depending on the group you're in). To win, you must be the first person in the Group to post a picture of your finished blocks for that period...(and I mean finished)

It will take Group A longer to finish since they are doing the applique by hand...but all will get the same number of chances for prizes since the groups are treated as separate challenges.

The patterns are being sent easiest first...to more complex last. The prizes will also correspond to this idea...so the harder the block...the better the prize. I hope this helps to keep your interest up...and keep you going so we can see some finished projects.

So, you can post photos...encourage each other...or ask questions on this link.

Round 1 patterns will be E-mailed shortly...they include the Carrot and the Silouette Bunny. Round 1 prize will be 3 Batik FQs for each group.

Here's the block background sizes for the applique blocks...it is not in you layout...so please write these in. This is the FINISHED size, so add seam allowance:

BLOCKS (numbered as they are in your layout sheets):
1. Leaping bunny 10 x 10
2. Dogwood 6 x 6
3. Daffodil Bunny 8 x 14
4. Carrot 4 x 12
5. Easter Basket Bunny 10 x 12
6. Silouette Bunny 6 x 6
7. Easter Bonnet 12 x 10
8. Tulips 6 x 10
9. Easter Eggs or Butterflys 4 x 10

All sizes are show width x length.

Note: I've put a smiley face next to those that have finished their blocks...the number next to the face will indicate which "Round".

I think I should get the pattern early since my birthday is tomorrow....The quilt is looking so good even if I do say so myself. Will be in and out this weekend but goping to get a few minutes to work on my block.

What can I say..."The Tag Team" does it again!! Seems ya'll are really having fun with this, and I'm happy about that!

Good job on the block...they look great.

Just one more to go!...

I also hope you both can sign up in July for the "Christmas in July" quilt...I just today finished cutting out all of the fusible pieces...my fingers have those 'permanent' dents in them from the little scissors. Ya'll have it easier...only doing one at a time...I'm cutting the entire quilt!

The blocks are going to be SO CUTE...mistletoe, candy cane, choo train with elves, presents, sledding elves, snowman, and lots more...can't wait to get it done so I can share the blocks...

TaDaaaaaaa Ok not too good of a picture hubby didn't get it all in the frame but you get the idea. I couldn't wait for the dogwood blossom so used the butterflies. I plan on doing the dogwood blossom and putting it on the back of the quilt as part of the signature tag.
