I would like to have little mermaid or wizard of oz scheme =)

whiteway 02/17/2010 #

Oops - forgot to add my colours!!! I would love a red & aqua colour scheme!!

katiejpbishop 02/18/2010 #

I would love a blue color one!

Straylight 02/18/2010 #

I think we'll choose some bright colors this time around. How about red (or orange or yellow or a mix of all three) ... fire-like colors. If it's not a problem, I'd prefer thread over embroidery floss (because i've got BOXES of the latter and only a rather small collection of the former), but either would be fine. Thanks!

paulavelosa 02/18/2010 #

for me can be: yellow and green, bright please, not pastel. and I'de love to receive embroidery floss (not thread). thanks.

whiteway 02/18/2010 #

@craftymomme08 - I think your request to have little mermaid or wizard of oz is too specific. It may be hard or even impossible for your partner to find those specific prints where they live!

This is more of a colour preference request! Can you please update your request? Thanks! :)

CajunLady 02/18/2010 #

For my colors, I'd like black and/or pink. Also, i would prefer thread over floss as I don't use floss. (black or white spool is cool).

craftymomme08 02/18/2010 #

oh okay, how about black and turqouise/aqua

TerryF 02/19/2010 #

I would like any one of the following, please and thx:

  • black and taupe/tan

  • teal/aqua shades and white

  • oranges

  • reds

  • yellows

Anything except floral patterns would be great (have lots of those).

I would prefer thread rather than floss (have lots of floss).

Green, yellow or purple would be good. I'd rather a spool of thread over floss, if possible. Thanks!!!!

katherinem 03/ 3/2010 #

Should the ribbon be one continuous length of the same ribbon, or should there be more than one type (though nothing too short to use)? Are other types of trim appropriate to send, or only ribbon? I haven't participated in this swap previously, so want to make sure of the requirements!
