I will be hosting a mini quilt swap. Here are the details. Signups begin today and will end next Saturday,November 1st. To sign up ,just leave a comment here on the blog. On Sunday,Nov. 2nd,I will send you the email address of your partner. This is NOT a secret swap,so the two of you will exchange mailing info. Then the fun begins:
1. Assemble in a bag/baggie ingredients to make a mini quilt. (Let's say anything under 20" finished quilt size is acceptable)This can be fat quarters,charm squares,strips,and/or embellishments of any kind. Think outside the box....beads,silk flowers,felt,floss,etc. Don't send batting-your partner can provide that! Send them to your partner by November 30th.
2. Once you receive your baggie of loot,create a mini quilt for your partner. You must use at least a bit of every item in the bag....you may also add items from your stash.
3. Mail the finished top (quilted and bound )to your partner by the end of January. This should give us plenty of extra time around the holidays.
4. Include a label on the back with pertinent info. Please email me when you have sent and rec'd your quilt. Post pictures!
Hope you play!

Everyone is welcome! :)

OK Tracy, If you think I can handle this.....
This one sounds like it could really make a person stretch, depending on what is in that bag. I think I am up to the task - at least I hope I am!
Hmmm...I've been looking for something different to try, sign me up!
I'm just wondering who provides the backing fabric?
Sign me up please.
Backing fabric....let's say maker provides backing fabric and batting-ok?

I would love to join this swap also. I found out about through holee's blog, which I read almost everyday. This sounds like so much fun.
It says to email you but I haven't found your email addy.
Sign me up! I wasn't going to go for this until I read that the deadline is in January, which gives me a bit of a breather after classes end for the semester. So exciting!
Oh darn. . . .I won't be able to participate in this swap after all. . .just found out that there is a family situation that needs to be taken care of.
I don't know how to delete my previous email asking to be part of this. . . .so if you could do that for me (I don't want to confuse things even further than I have already done) I would appreciate it.
Thanks & have a wonderful swap,
In peace & pieces,
Sherry V
Sign me up. I haven't used any embellishments before but I can go out of the box. It would be good for me. Right?
I am game. Got challenges going on in my life why not add one more. Thanks.
Hello! Please sign me up! I am hoping to exchange with someone from Japan or Australia, both with rich histories of quilting. Do the partners ever KEEP what they swap, or do they always mail back and forth?
