I found my center fabric yesterday. I am trying to find a pic online. The fabric is from Moda's Cherries Jubilee. The pic featured here shows the fabric with a green background and tiny green flowers. Mine will have a white background and the tiny flowers are red. http://www.splintersandthreads.com/product/CL-Moda-CJ However, these are all the colors included on my fabric. Personally I think the white background makes all the colors standout on their own much better. I will try to find an exact pic.

ETA: The very next site I clicked on had my fabric. I think the colors are more true in the above pic. Click to enlarge and you will get a closer look. However, here it is with the white background: http://www.thescrappyappleyard.com/store/products/details/?product=21028-19 I think this will be a fun fabric to play with, don't you?!
ETA, again...lol... I noticed that there is no one from the last COF retreat signed up for this swap other than myself. Come on girls. I found this beautiful fabric on my trip to Old Town Spring yesterday. Remember it was on our shop hop. I stopped by GS Creations and this lovely fabric was 40% off and I just knew it would be perfect for this swap. Surely there are some more retreaters out there that would LOVE LOVE LOVE to do this swap?!
That is great fabric TxWildflower. And can I add that I am a former retreater, I went to MINN and knew who was your SS long before YOU did. I sat next to her at the Retreat. IN FACT, I hope to see GA QUILTER soon here in RI! How's that????
Auntie Reba, I am so glad you are in this swap. I look forward to meeting you in '09. I am just trying to get some of these gals I met here in March interested in joining what will be a fun swap. Theresa (GaQuilter) is a fun gal and I was very fortunate to be able to meet her this year. I was doubly blessed and got to meet my LSS, sewlove2quilt in person. Oh heck, I was just floored and delighted to meet all the gals. I look forward to meeting some of you that made it to the retreat in Minn. but not Houston. And then of course, those that have never attended any COF retreat. Hopefully, I have covered the whole spectrum of the HGTV Quilting and Needlework forum.
So this is an invite, an encouragement and a mild challenge to get more folks interested in the Flutterby Block Swap. It's GONNA BE FUN!!!
I think I'm going to do 30's center (not sure if same color or different), WOW for first round and any 30's print for last round. Think that will be nice!
I will try and remember to take my camera...but it's not until August...we will be at the Opryland Hotel for the Nashville Quilt Show...anyone else going?
