Swap categories: Crafts  Fabric 
Number of people in swap:23
Location:International
Type:None
Last day to signup/drop:March 31, 2009
Date items must be sent by:April 18, 2009
Number of swap partners:2
Description:

You will have TWO swap partners, and you will send your partners 20 5-INCH FABRIC SQUARES. (You will send a total of 40 squares -- 20 to each partner.)

The fabric must be 100% cotton, and can be novelty, print, solid, tonal, floral, etc.

You can send 2 5-inch squares from the same piece of fabric, which means that you will need a minimum of 10 different fabrics from which to cut your squares, or you can send all different fabric squares with no duplicates if you'd like. Or, some combination of different and same. But please, no more than 2 5-inch squares from the same fabric. (You will send a total of 40 squares -- 20 to each partner.)

I allow high quality swappers only. If you are new, and you flake on this swap, I will report you, so, please don't sign up if you don't intend to swap.

BE SURE TO ASK ANY QUESTIONS YOU MIGHT HAVE. And most of all, HAVE FUN! HAPPY SWAPPING!

Here's some FAQ:

1) Is this swap open to new swappers? Yes, I do allow new swappers. Everyone needs to start somewhere. However, if a person flakes on a swap, I do report, and they will be banned from future swaps.

2) If I sign up, might I have a partner from another country? Yes, this is an International Swap. You may receive partners from another country, and you may have to send to partners in another country. What a great opportunity for you to get to know a little more about the world that we live in.

3) Do you pick the partners? I, personally, do not select the partners, SwapBot does that. I just push the button that says "assign partners."

4) Can you change my partner? There is no way for my to change partners that you may get. It's all automated.

5) What about extras? You may CHOOSE to send your partner something extra ... ribbons, buttons, candy, etc. but it is not required.

6) How do I rate my partners? If they meet the requirements -- 20 5-inch squares, no more than 2 squares of any fabric sent by the deadline, then give them a 5.

Remember, International shipping sometimes takes awhile. Your partner may have sent it on time, but the combination of postal systems might have slowed the package.

7) How do I rate extras? If they send extras, feel free to add the 'heart' that says they sent something extra special.

I am in the middle of collecting fabrics for a charm quilt and I am trying to collect over 2000 different squares, so I would totally love it if my partners could try to send as many different fabrics as possible...although I certainly would be very happy with anything I received :)

I would love to receive blue's, teals, greens, and purples and any variations of these because I'm finishing up a hexagon quilt made mostly with these colors. I do love batik's too! But I'd be happy with anything except polka dots. thank you

OOH! I'm also doing a charm quilt, so would love as many different things as possible.

I'm doing a few quilts and need lots of reds, black and grays for one. Greens for another and then any kawaii fabric from Japan for a special quilt. And also starry fabrics, but I'll be happy with whatever i receive. =)

I can't wait to get started with my part of the swap. =D

I love the floral, stripe, or vintage shabby cottage look, but will be THRILLED with whatever I get.

honstuff 03/29/2009 #

Oooo..almost forgot. I'm making a baby quilt for my newest grandson and I need browns and greens and creams.

I'm trying to build up my 5" charm collection. I'm saving to make a black, white, grey quilt. I'm working on a red and denim quilt. I'm doing a blue Ohio star one and want to do a green one and then one with earthy tones. I too am thrilled with anything I receive but was a little dissappointed to receive one swap where the charms were only 4 1/2 ".

I love them all, but I am collecting polka dots and novelty prints for I-Spy quilts! Thanks!
