Description:

Note: I've skipped past December because of the holidays!

In this swap we are going to make some really scrappy CrAzY FuN 9 PaTcH. I found a video tutorial and some written out directions to make this block - it is so simple and fun to do. I have my teenager working on one for a summer quilt!

The block is super fun and modern perfect for beginning quilters and experts! I am going to run this swap for 6 months total, then if there is a need to continue, I will find another hostess for it.

The video has a stack of three different fabrics and that is how we are doing this swap. So, making one set = making 3 fabric squares into 3 crazy fun nine patch quilt blocks.

  • Video Tut

  • A written out tutorial

    The specifics:

  • Start with 11- inch squares of fabric, this should leave you enough wiggle room to trim your block to 9-inches to send.

  • You will be making 2 sets of these 3-blocks-a-set. You will have 2 partners. You send each partner 1 block from each set and keep one block of each set for yourself. REPEATING TO BE CLEAR: Make two sets of three blocks. Send each partner 1 9-inch block of each set, 2 blocks total.

  • No holiday or religious fabric! Otherwise, fabrics are SENDER'S CHOICE!

  • Newbies are allowed with filled out profiles.

  • If you receive 2 crazy nine patch quilt blocks from your partner you must rate a 5.

  • I will cover flakers, but you will need to give the flaker a 1 rating.

I hope this swap is something fun you will all love to do!

I have filled in my profile as last night when I signed up I was to sleepy to do it but now it is totally complete. I have been doing Yahoo swaps for a long time and I absolutely love swapping things with people and cannot wait to get to know new people. I do not get out much do to my disease and being on chemo and this kind of thing is my way of meeting new people. Just yesterday I got something from England I just love getting things like that. I have gotten things from Germany and Australia as well. I love to send out and hear the person's reaction to what I send them as well. I look forward to being a part of this swap. Thanks and God Bless!

Are the blocks to be cut at 9 1/2" to finish as 9", or cut at 9" to finish at 8 1/2" ?

susandjones, cut at 9" to finish at 8 1/2"; you can fold these and send them in a business size envelop.
