Description:

EDITED - I am making the size of the inchie a little more versatile so now you may make your 'inchie' from one to two inches. This should make it a little easier.

For this swap you need to make six fabric inchies for two partners. You can use felt or any kind of fabric but there are rules.

The Rules!

  1. You must use some kind of firm fabric or felt as a base. You can cover that with fabric but it has to be a stiff fabric surface.

  2. Your inchies must be washable. This is so your partner can use your inchies as embellishments on other projects if they want. They can be hand washable.

  3. No glue allowed

  4. They must measure one to two square inchs.

You choose the theme and textures. You can use beads, thread, buttons, wool, felting techniques ribbon, quilting whatever you like.

Along with your fabric inchies you also must send the following:

  1. One Fat quarter

  2. Six buttons

  3. Twelve beads

  4. One spool/hank of thread or one yard of trim/ribbon

Also everything needs to run in a black and white theme!

Now for the boring stuff! I will angel or find angels for anyone who is flaked on so you must meet strict standards to enter this swap. I don't care about ratings. I care about charactor so if you don't have a perfect rating and you can supply proof of your craftmanship and I feel you are a safe swapper you will be allowed.

Just because you have a 5 rating doesn't mean you will be accepted.

I wont ban anyone without giving an honest explanation.

Of course this is an international swap.

Everyone who is accepted into this swap is also invited to join my flickr group to share photos if they wish. They just need to PM me to request an invite.

Welcome Duchess, Magicjessnrach and Phahsiga to my swap.

Duchess is a newbie and is unrated but she has been in constant touch with me before I started this swap and I think she will be a great swapper.

Welcome Yobittles,

Another newbie! But I had a look at her great blog and I really appreciate her email requesting to join the swap.

Please not that newbies are not automatically accepted in this swap but nor are they automatically declined.

Hi guys,

Please note I have edited the size of the inchies. You can now make then from one to two inches. I also made the sign up date a few days later.

Hi,

Sorry about the delay in assigning partners. I got all caught up in birthday celebrations I forgot!
