Description:

This is a swap for a finished SPRING themed embroidery in hoops or mini quilts. The embroidery hoop must be 6" or bigger and the mini quilt must be 6"x6" or bigger. You can use any embroidery techniques that you would like to do. Just make sure that you make something that you are proud of, and that you would like to receive.

Don't forget to leave comments, I check daily.

You will have to either finish it with a hoop or in a mini quilt.The hoops must also be nicely prepared for hanging. It would also be nice if you could somehow attach your name & the date. If you aren't sure how to prepare your piece for hanging, there is some great information at the following site: Preparing Hoop Hanging and if your not sure how to mini quilt your embridery here is some great information here or here If you have any questions or concerns, please message me!

I will be checking profiles and ratings, and will ban any questionable swappers or those with any 1's or unexplained 3'sn the last 6 months . I hope I don't have to do this, as I would love for everyone to be able to participate, but I must protect all of our good swappers! It isn't fair to put a lot of time and effort into a swap and have your own partner flake on you. That said, please let me know if you have any problems!

Because this is sender's choice, please rate a 5 if they send you a completed 6"/15.2cm hoop or mini quilt, even if the design isn't to your taste. Please also remember that all skill levels are welcome to join! Please PM me with any Questions.

@leslielovesyellow I love the ideas! I really like the idea of a pendant, I am going to look to see if micheals of acmoore carry the pendants.
