I would love prim burgundy. Thanks.

junemoon 09/ 5/2009 #

I am re-stashing in red and green which I've been using a lot. So I'd appreciate something either color, any shade.

nanthom 09/ 5/2009 #

I need solid (light) colors for the the writing side of fabric postcards. I also need yellow prints or christmas prints. Thanks!

renees 09/ 5/2009 #

these are my favorite swaps!! I'm watching until it gets a bit closer, but I would LOVE a Halloween theme! Black and orange, or Anything halloweeny! YAY!

TerryF 09/ 6/2009 #

Watching...

OK, because it is my least favourite colour and I therefore have hardly anything in it, I am going to stretch myself and choose (ugh) orange! lol

But PLEASE don't make my profile surprise orange too - ANY other colour would be fine! Thx!

oohisay 09/ 6/2009 #

There are so many colours I would love to receive, but maybe I'll change things up a bit and say lighter shades of blue/grey.

Love2Teach 09/ 6/2009 #

Watching for now, will have to see where our finances are! LOVE these swaps though, so fun!

Moineau 09/ 7/2009 #

I'd love a soft grey-blue, or just some light blue if you can't find that particular shade.

SecretSheep 09/ 7/2009 #

Convince me that I like green! I keep saying I don't, but deep down I know I do, especially shades of it, rather than primary.

PaintedGreene 09/ 9/2009 #

I'm a big fan of chocolate brown right now and i am looking for a few odd brass buttons if whomever i get assigned to has a few to offer. I am making a patchy coat for my little girl for winter and i am shy by about 1 or 2 buttons

bluecornflower 09/10/2009 #

Ooh so hard to choose, but blue for me please!

grannylove60 09/12/2009 #

Oooohhhh.....I love these swaps!!! Watching for now. Have to see if I can manage this one, but will probably have to give in and join up:))

JacquiMcR 09/14/2009 #

turquoise or shades of green please (or a combination of both if you like)

jannikinz 09/15/2009 #

Purple would be awesome. Will be happy with any colour listed on my profile...but please not Halloween or kids prints :)

lala 09/16/2009 #

this time i will go with...white please. thankyou.

BEARSANDANNIES 09/16/2009 #

My shade of choice this round would be Robin Egg Blue!!

TickledPinkTwice 09/16/2009 #

I'm going to go with anything other than pink or purples. With 2 girls...I'm over-flowing with those colors. Please no children's patterns. I'm more into something modern/classic but not old lady :)

ostera15 09/17/2009 #

I would like either Halloween themed or purples and greens. Please no pastels.

grannylove60 09/19/2009 #

Okey dokey....couldn't resist any longer:)) Um......I think this time I would like things in medium blue please:)) I have very little blue in my stash so could really use some things in a medium shade of blue. Please...no baby blue or royal blue. Those are two shades I really don't like..yuk!

cookie 09/20/2009 #

I love green... soft, sage-y shades. Or lavender. Hm, or brown. Or...

Okay, to make it easier, let's list the colors I don't like - which are orange and black and neon colors. There, now you can choose from the whole rest of the rainbow. ;^)

bettflow09 09/20/2009 #

I'm in!!! I would like things in burgundy please:)) I love these swaps! Thankyou @whiteway for hosting this one again:)))

whiteway 09/20/2009 #

You're welcome @bettflow09 I LOVE this swap too and its fun to host it! :)

Mello 09/22/2009 #

Red or any natural greens would be great - or chocolate with any lighter colour as combo.....

Evka 09/23/2009 #

This sounds great! My choice is yellow, but I like surprises so my SP can make the choice :)

bettflow09 09/23/2009 #

I am sorry to have to do this, but I am dropping out of this swap. I don't want to get in over my head. With the swaps that I am hosting I am pretty much fully loaded right now:))

I hope this one will be continued, so I will have the opportunity to join in a future round:))

ajquilts 09/24/2009 #

Watching for now, but if I join would prefer anything on the vivid side (such as lime green, orange/pink/yellow paisley - don't laugh, I'm looking at some in my studio right now! lol - deep purple, etc). Please no novelty prints or pastels.

pinkdiamond 09/27/2009 #

reds and blacks would be my choice

Carolyne 09/29/2009 #

Any one of the following would be great: Red, Yellow, Green or Orange. Any tone or a mix of tones is fine. Thank you.

OpheliaQuilts 09/29/2009 #

Red please! No pastels please.

renees 10/ 1/2009 #

i wanted to add, if you happen to find dachshund fabric, I would love that too!!!!

whiteway 10/ 2/2009 #

Partners are assigned!!! Have fun everyone! :)

angielovesorange 10/ 2/2009 #

My name says it all I really love orange! All shades pretty much not crazy about the peachy pastel tones though. I love fall! I love pumpkins and anything else fall related! And I'm really in a owl crazy faze! The cutesy kind, not real life owls! LOL

jannikinz 10/ 3/2009 #

I had the best morning shopping for this swap. Posting on Monday 5th in Aus.

pinkdiamond 10/ 3/2009 #

catsmeow 10/ 3/2009 #
