YVQG Exchange

I had completed at 13 blocks for other people in the Yellowstone Valley Quilt Guild block exchange.  That allowed me the opportunity to present a request for people to create a block for me.  I presented my block at the November meeting.

I requested a crumb line block with a solid background.  I didn't pull it from an actual pattern so I wrote the directions myself.  So far, there have been no calls with questions on the block.  That could mean a few things.  People may not be working on blocks yet because they cannot even turn in blocks at the December meeting.  Or, no one is going to turn in blocks for me.  Or, the directions are fine.  I would be living in a fantasy world if I completely believed the last idea.

Two crumb lines:

Three crumb lines:

The solid background is 13 inches square.  Then, the crumb lines are 2 inches wide.  The blocks do end up being wider than 13 inches and around 13 inches (depending on how lined up the top of the block is when inserting the crumb lines).  It will be fun to put see what people return.  I hope I get a good response.
