Description:
This swap is for SMALL pieces of fabrics -- for making a scrap style quilt. You'll send your TWO partner 10 different pieces of fabric sized at least 4 x 4 inches to 6 x 6 inches EACH. Each piece of fabric should be different. (This means you will send 10 pieces of fabric the right size to 2 different people. No repeating fabrics to one person but of course you could send the same fabrics to each of your partners). Send only COTTONS (fit for quilting) and try to stay away from novelty prints (unless your partner asks for them, send no more than 4 novelty prints). If you are looking for certain colors of fabric for a themed quilt then post that in the COMMENTS. Before you send PLEASE check the comments to see if your partner has a preference. You don't have to send just the colors she specifies but please try to do so if you can. I will check to be sure you have a reasonable rating. I'm not going to autoban you if you have had some trouble in the past as long as your rating illustrate that you are a reliable swapper.

I would like Christmas fabrics please -- reds, greens and holiday prints. I am using squares 5" big so please don't send smaller.

I really like pretty or funky fabric, and I like novelty prints, so don't be afraid to sent them. :)

I prefer 6x6 size fabric in 30's reproduction fabrics and or civil war reproduction fabrics--of course these are just suggestions. If you have Amy Butler fabrics...would love to receive those also! Then last but not least, anything with red as the dominant color in the fabric (floral, print, solid, batiq) is always a winner!

I am pretty much open to any quilt-shop quality fabric, you know good quality, 100% cotton nothing too thin, not from Walmart, not from Joann's.

I am also collecting 5" squares, so at least that size is preferred.

Thanks Everybody!!

WendyB: you can request quilt shop fabrics only but since that is not a restriction in the original swap if anybody sends you less than 100% cotton fabrics, please do not use that as a reason to give them a lower rank!

I love fall colors and am a traditional quilt maker. Thanks in advance for anything.

OOPS, forgot to give you a size. Would love to have the 6 inch sized blocks, please.
