Description:

Hello everyone! I hope you will like this swap. What this swap is about is that you will each have one partner and will go to your local fabric store and select some fabric that you think your partner would like best and send it to them. Make sure that you send a minimum of 1 yard so that they can make something with the fabric: aprons, tea towels, blankets, purses, etc.

I am making this USA only because I know in Europe and other places they may go by the meter and it just may be too confusing.

Please don't just go to your local Wal-mart and pick out a cheap $2 per yard fabric and send it. Please choose a better made cotton fabric with a cute print on it.

So again select 1 yard of fabric and mail it to 1 partner.

Newbies welcome with a well filled out profile. Rating of at least 4.5. I reserve the right to make sure that everyone participating seems like they will not flake and may not allow you to participate if anything seems suspicious.

The point of this swap is to get a nice piece of fabric so that you can make something from it.

Leave a comment about what colors you like either on your profile or here.

I LOVE anything Moda, especially soft colors and florals. Shabby chic, cottage look. Love stripes and polka dots, too!

I like everything but plain colors. I love fabric with patterns. Thanks.

Oh, I would love this.. I hope you do this international too once.. (1 yrd = 0,92 m, so this is only 3,14 inch less than 1 m!)

Next time I will do an international one Marijke. I promise.

I like Moda fabrics and I also am really into anything Amy Butler right now. Purples, blues and greens are my favorite colors. I like vintage looking fabric.

I am a newbie at this and was wondering if I could join the swap? If I can, I like bright colors and am partial to red and yellow! : )

I would like something with a Tea theme, cups, pots would be wonderful. Like the RJR 'Afternoon Tea' theme cant find them here and want to redo my kitchen. If cant find that, aqua or purples will do.

Im excited about this swap because I tend to buy cute fabrics in yard or two yard increments so I have a nice stash to share. I have been wanting a reason to visit the most incredible fabric shop and here's a great excuse to go,

I think it would be easier for my partner to check out my profile. - it's pretty extensive with information about me.I look forward ro getting partners soon-

swedishfishie 04/20/2009 #

100% cotton, not solid please. Love amy butler, paisely, cupcakes, country kitchen themed. Please nothing red or bright yellow.

amuhleisen 04/21/2009 #

I'm not too picky.......my profile has tons of themes and styles I like. Anything for the kids would be fine too. I really like funky stuff. Skulls are fairly popular right now and that's always a winner with me.

nanthom 04/21/2009 #

I love batiks ,but I can use anything. I love black, pink, anything blue, anything that blends with sunsets, ocean views, lighthouses, and love surprises! :-)
