Description:

You will have TWO swap partners, and you will send your partners 20 5-INCH FABRIC SQUARES. (You will send a total of 40 squares -- 20 to each partner.)

The fabric must be 100% cotton, and can be novelty, print, solid, tonal, floral, etc.

You can send 2 5-inch squares from the same piece of fabric, which means that you will need a minimum of 10 different fabrics from which to cut your squares, or you can send all different fabric squares with no duplicates if you'd like. Or, some combination of different and same. But please, no more than 2 5-inch squares from the same fabric. (You will send a total of 40 squares -- 20 to each partner.)

I allow high quality swappers only. If you are new, and you flake on this swap, I will report you, so, please don't sign up if you don't intend to swap.

BE SURE TO ASK ANY QUESTIONS YOU MIGHT HAVE. And most of all, HAVE FUN! HAPPY SWAPPING!

Here's some FAQ:

1) Is this swap open to new swappers? Yes, I do allow new swappers. Everyone needs to start somewhere. However, if a person flakes on a swap, I do report, and they will be banned from future swaps.

2) If I sign up, might I have a partner from another country? Yes, this is an International Swap. You may receive partners from another country, and you may have to send to partners in another country. What a great opportunity for you to get to know a little more about the world that we live in.

3) Do you pick the partners? I, personally, do not select the partners, SwapBot does that. I just push the button that says "assign partners."

4) Can you change my partner? There is no way for my to change partners that you may get. It's all automated.

5) What about extras?
You may CHOOSE to send your partner something extra ... ribbons, buttons, candy, etc. but it is not required.

6) How do I rate my partners? If they meet the requirements -- 20 5-inch squares, no more than 2 squares of any fabric sent by the deadline, then give them a 5.

Remember, International shipping sometimes takes awhile. Your partner may have sent it on time, but the combination of postal systems might have slowed the package.

7) How do I rate extras? If they send extras, feel free to add the 'heart' that says they sent something extra special.

I'm so excited for this! I've been watching this site for almost a year and FINALLY figured it out. I'm so happy to be here and now just need to prove myself so I can join more. This is so wonderful! Rhonda Hagen

this will be my first swap. can't wait to get started. I bought some coordinating fabrics today to make strips from, but there will be plenty left over for a few charms from each.

Ya-ha-whoey!!! Sign me up, too (please and thanks). I have been itching to make a charm quilt using 5" squares. This is just the kick in tbe behind to get me going!! I am going to cut my squares this week so I will be ready to send them out to my partner!

I am working on a Quilt for the Cure, so I would love to get a few cheery pink prints with my package if you have any. Thanks.

hmmm...I am going to shop my stash for this and it occurred to me that some of my fabrics may have been pre-washed. is there some kind of general rule about prewashing?
