Swap Coordinator:JVCScoutMom (contact)
Swap categories: Crafts  Fabric  Newbie 
Number of people in swap:26

Last day to signup/drop:February 28, 2009

Number of swap partners:2
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.

Greetings swap buddies, I can't wait to get at my fabric tonight and start cutting out those squares. I have no one in my neighborhood with which to share fabric and so enjoy these swaps.

Will swappers with 1's be dropped? There is one swapper currently signed up who has not signed in for over a month and has several 1's, including several on past versions of this same swap. If not, please let me know, so I can drop. Thanks! Erin

This is my first swap! Any ideas on what I could include as "extras" for my packets? What are the best extras that people have received? What are the best extras that you have sent?

I'm excited! Thanks for allowing newbies!

I haven't received an email to tell me who my partners will be. Please let me know. Thanks Meerkat

Time is running out!! I still have not received any info on who my partners will be. I need time to find the right fabric for every partner. Please let me know SOON!! Is there a problem that we need to know of?? Meerkat

meerkat - up at the top of the page, there is a yellow box. One of the options is "see the partners you send to." That's where you find out who you are supposed to send to.

Getting mine ready to mail out tomorrow. My kids are off school, why I have no clue but I'm going to call the post office and see if they are still open. Our little town and school district like to do things differently than outside of the town. Here our post office isn't open on the weekends. And some days they should be they aren't. So crossing my fingers or I'll have to drive all the way out of town to get them sent, but they will get sent lol.

Mine are on their way! Yippie

I sent mine yesterday and YET the website wasn't allowing me to click through the OK box that pops up when you try to submit.

But no worries, partners - your goodies were in the mailbox on Sunday afternoon. :-)

sorry I didn't confirm that I sent my swap until now. My laptop has been down and swapbot is blocked at work.
