Description:

I really like lots of color themed swaps and since I love to sew too, I thought why not make it a quilter's fat quarter color swap. I see a lot of swaps for yarn out there and also just for colors, but none for those cute little fat quarters we all see at the material shops. You can use them to make quilts, hats, purses, doll clothes, or anything that takes about 1/4 yd of material.

We are on swap #14 and it will be stripes and dots in any color for the month of September this time, since it is the beginning of the school year month I think stripes and dots[polka dots] is a great theme and you can choose any color. The swaps are fun and I love doing them.

This swap will be all about all colors in stripes and dots. That means any material as long as it has the stripes and dots in any color in them.

This is an open swap to overseas and USA.

You will have one partner to send to.

Send:

  1. 4 fat quarters in stripes or dots
  2. any color thread
  3. stripes or dots note cards/journal/stationery
  4. stripes or dots surprise gift

Make your package go together....

You should send a package that keeps true to the stripes and dots in any color theme as much as possible and is worth at least $15 (pre-postage). If you wish to substitute other items for #2 and #3 that is ok as long as it is something to do with sewing and the package theme color or colors.

Please note that I have added a Flickr page to post your photos and Thank-you for all your packages received. See the site address above.

Look at your partners profile and include extra items such as notions, buttons, stitckers, needles, pins,a pattern, bias trim, ribbon,lace,or any other item you think in prints that would be nice to receive. This can be an inexpensive mailing package. That is why it will be fun.

Please have a rating of 4.75 and zero no sends. Newbies are welcome; please have a well filled out profile and email me BEFORE you join. Otherwise I will delete you from the swap!!

Lastly, please rate your partner accordingly. When you receive your swap, rating them is a great way to let them know you received it.

If you have not received your swap in a timely manner, please email me and I will try to assist you in conacting your partner.

Please let me know if you have any questions regarding this swap.

Happy Swapping!

Should the thread be sewing or embroidery or either. Also does the fabric have to have both stripes & dots?

Sorry about not posting this sooner, but it is fine to have stipes or dots, they do not have to be on the same fat 1/4 you can send all stripes, all dots, or a mixture..

Hope that helps.. DaCraftyLady

ahh I like the pink and white and other color combos..maybe the next one I can do that..thanks for the idea.. :)

DaCraftyLady 09/ 9/2008 #

Actually if you check Oct nov and Dec swaps they are all multi colors... but for some reason every time I put #s besides what to send they do not show up????

Maybe in Jan we can start more multi cors that go good together...great idea...thanks..
