Description:

For this swap we will be sending ten(10) 5 inch charm squares of boy fabrics to two(2) partners. That would be a total of twenty(20) 5 inch charm squares. No more than 2 of the same fabric please so everyone will get a variety. No solids. The fabrics can be anything boyish such as cars, dinos, bugs, tools,sports and the like. The fabric should be a good quality fabric and 100% cotton. Out of your stash is fine as long as it is new and nice.

Newbies are allowed in this swap with a fully filled out profile as I know how hard it can be to get started so you can get your ratings up. I cannot angel this swap but I do hope that everyone will be nice and play fair. There are not any extras required but if you want to send something extra that is no problem and I am sure would be loved. This is international because the squares will fit in an envelope and the cost will be small so everyone can play along. I will check profiles and it there are ones then you will be banned from the swap as I do not want any flakers. If there is something you want to explain about a rating then please message me and we will go on from there.

I do hope everyone will join in the fun and have a ball. Also feel free to converse in the comments with fabrics you like and don't like and just what you think about the swap in general. The fabric choices are up to the sender but there is no harm in putting your likes down. Senders, take a few minutes to check out your partners profile to see what they may like.

Come on people join in! This is my first time hosting a swap on here and I would love for it to be a great one. I am thinking of doing a series of charm swaps with themes each month. What do you think?

Who has children? I have a son, Blaze. He just turned 3 on August 9th and he is a mess. The squares I get will be used to make a quilt for him. Maybe like an I Spy quilt. What are you guys planning on doing with your squares?

I have three boys who I am going to make quilts and pillows for.

Wow, 3? I am barely surviving with one lol. I want to make an I Spy quilt because Blaze has a speech delay because of ear problems and I think we can make a game out of naming items in the squares.

Wow what a great idea. I bet your an awesome mom.

Mommy2Blaze 09/ 9/2010 #

Aww, thank you! Just trying to make learning fun for him. Sounds like a good idea anyway. Now just to see if it works haha.
