I have been participating in a Postage Stamp Exchange for 1 1/2" blocks and 2 1/2" blocks. It is a Facebook group. There are 3 different exchanges a year. You can sign up for 1 to 25 sets. Each set contains 100 blocks and cannot contain any repeat fabrics. I signed up for 10 sets of the first exchange of the 1 1/2" blocks and have just received my blocks. I am now over the 1 1/2" blocks exchanges. I would love to have more people get involved in the exchange.
These are all the blocks that I received for the March Exchange.
This is what I do with my block when I receive them. I sort them by colors. Not every batch is the same, because I don't always get turquoise or black.
I have designed a few blocks to help people see some fun ways to use these blocks. I will give a few tutorials in a week are two. But for now enjoy these pictures. The biggest thing that I have learned with scrap quilts is use opposites. Like a dark than a light next to each other. This really helps the patterns form if that is what you are trying to get.
