The gorgeous and talented Rebecca@MakingRebeccaLynne has just announced that she'll be running an international low volume swap which will be starting on Monday 27th August. For details please click on the button below
and if you're interested please leave a comment on her announcement post - find it here.
If you're thinking 'what on earth is low volume?' then fear not for Rebecca has pulled together some fine examples on her announcement post and I've borrowed a few photos from a couple of bloggy friends (I asked first!)
These are bright blocks surrounded by a low volume background

P.S. Yes, I know I said that my next post would have a giveaway in it...turns out I lied *wink*
Edited to add:for some reason some of the photos aren't always showing and I've tried to fix it but have run out of patience...please just click on the link and it'll take you to Flickr!! I'll come back and try again after a cup of tea! Fixed...just don't ask me how 'cos I don't know!
Edited to add:

ReplyDeleteOff to have a look.
ReplyDeleteOh wow seeing Fi's blocks and recognising some fabric I realised these were the one's she's made for me!!!! How lucky am I? And Archie is seriously cute low volume. (Just in case he thought I was fickle and not showing him enough love)
ReplyDeleteThe bears, having no interest in fabric, prefer the low volume Archie. I like the low volume blocks :oD
ReplyDeleteLoving low volume Archie.
ReplyDeleteI wish I was a bit more low volume atm ;0)
All pics showing for me and I love the low volume dog shots!
ReplyDeleteLow volume dog! Priceless.
ReplyDeleteArchie is high volume in cuteness! Jxo
ReplyDeleteLow volume Archie, now you're talking!
ReplyDeleteInteresting, low volume colours, I can't see Archie as a low volume dog!!!!
ReplyDeleteFar too cute.
Hahaha such great images thanks for those. I may just join in with the swap....providing I can put the effort into cutting those squares....... Always good to see Archie...=D
ReplyDeleteHmmmmmm that looks like one bored doggy. I imagine the low volume is because Helen isnt whispering "Bickies" or "walkies"
ReplyDeleteLow volume Archie indeed! The awesome dog who won Pets on Quilts!?? Nah can't be him!
ReplyDeleteLove the borrowed blocks - now give them back Helen and Jan's stash.....come on !
I might need to join this one too.
ReplyDeleteI love your post Helen. The low volume pics are great! I don't have very many low volumes to swap out.. :/ I love Low Volume Arche! :o) *swoon*

ReplyDeleteHi there, I've just discovered your blog and am already head-over-heels for Archie..what a handsome lad he is! I look forward to following his adventures in quilting (and yours too!)
ReplyDeleteMy Ben & Jerry (both girls, despite their names..they don't seem to mind!)have their own quilt too and would love Archie to hop over and say hello sometime too. Happy weekend!
I signed up. And low-volume Archie is awesome!
ReplyDeleteHi Helen....I've never done a swap....but afraid I have too many pots in the fire right now. Thanks for you great comment on the quilts.....
ReplyDeleteAnother swap!! LOL... now for a stupid question.. Low volume is that another way of saying "not loud" sort of subtle?? I have some low volume rabbits?? LOL... Cute Archie... I think he deserves a biscuit.
ReplyDeleteIt looks like low volume suits Archie! I can't believe I missed this swap but then I seem to have missed most of the Summer. I'll look forward to seeing your charms when they come :)
ReplyDeletearchie is the BEST low volume example! too cute. glad we're swapping together!
