Description:
Whimsical -- playful or fanciful For this swap, you will send your partner 2 items: Send your partner 1 whimsical FQ (18x22in) -- see your partner's profile for ideas. + Sew something for your partner using whimsical fabric -- a set of bookmarks or tissue cosies, a coin purse, a pouch, etc. Again, think about what your partner might like. This should be fairly lightweight, so it's open to international folks. So...1 FQ + 1 small finished project for your partner! :) If there's interest, I'll do these themed swaps regularly. Happy Swapping! Picture is from this blog: http://nestdecorating.typepad.com/nestdecoratingdesigns/2007/12/index.html

I love this themed swap idea!

Thank you :) I have some ideas (and welcome others!) for future ones, too! Thanks for signing up!

This is a fantastic idea ,something very different.

Maybe you need to add a send date for the return of the made item as well.

@Bearynice - the way the swap info is worded says that you (Bearynice) send both a FQ and a project you've made (as opposed to you sending a FQ, which your partner then turns into a project and returns to you). Best as I can see, nothing gets returned to you.

@Saucyknits - Is that a correct interpretation?

Saucyknits 07/17/2011 #

@ bearynice & @cengland -- yes, that is the correct interpretation. You send your partner 2 things - 1 FQ + 1 small finished project

Hm... Can I join a sewing-swap for the first time... can't I translate the word whimsical... Is by whimsical fabric meant: with al colourful pattern? Maybe someone could explain it to me. I'd love to join this swap, but first I have to understand what I should do.

@kairne When I think of whimsical I think of cute and colorful things. I hope that helps and that you join.
