Description:

I remember being a newbie and waiting for swaps so I could get rated. So here’s one for all the newbies out there.

Pick TWO different items from the following list and send it to your partner. All these items are not that expensive and won’t cost that much to ship.

• A fat quarter

• A card of buttons

• A roll of ribbon

• A yard of lace

• 6 skeins of embroidery floss

• A rubber stamp

• A sheet of rub on or sticker letters

• A cute iron on appliqué

• A useful handmade item (like a needlebook or bookmarks – things that can be used, not are just for decoration)

This swap is open to all newbies and even those swappers with ratings. I won't be banning anyone unless it's someone I know to be a known scammer or things look really dodgy. This swap is International. This swap is going to have a quick turnaround so you all can get rated pretty quickly. Please fill out your profile with likes and dislikes – this will help your partner be able to get an idea of things you would like.

Here's why I call it "At Your Own Risk" swap. If you don't get something from your partner I will not be swap-fairy-ing this swap.

I think this is a great way to get some new swappers into the fold and have some fun doing it. Let's get swapping!

Is a 'fat quarter' a quarter of a yard of fabric or .25? I know this is probably a stupid question, but I had to ask!LOL

A fat quarter is a cut of fabric 18 inches x 22 inches.

Do partners get posted here? or somewhere else? sorry but this is my first swap and my first time using this type forum Tracy

once the swap signup ends tonight, i will go in and assign partners. you'll get an email letting you know partners have been assigned. than you come back to the swap listing and if you click on "see who you send to" (the wording might be a little different - i am going off memory here) than you will get the name, address and link to your partner's profile. hope that helps!
