Description:

I really like lots of color themed swaps and since I love to sew too, I thought why not make it a quilter's fat quarter color swap. I see a lot of swaps for yarn out there and also just for colors, but none for those cute little fat quarters we all see at the material shops. You can use them to make quilts, hats, purses, doll clothes, or anything that takes about 1/4 yd of material. So we will start with green this time, since it is summertime. If it goes well then I will do a different color monthly.

This swap will be all about the color green. Mint green, true green, forest green, light green, lime green, patterned green,polka dot green, olive green..etc.

This is a USA only swap.

You will have one partner to send to.

Send:

  1. 4 fat quarters
  2. green thread
  3. green note cards/journal/stationery
  4. a green surprise gift

You should send a package that keeps true to the green as much as possible and is worth at least $10 (pre-postage). Look at your partners profile and include extra items such as notions, buttons, stitckers, needles, pins,a pattern, bias trim, ribbon,lace,or any other item you think in green that would be nice to receive. This can be an inexpensive mailing package. That is why it will be fun.

Here are some ideas of what you might include in your package:

Please have a rating of 4.75 and zero no sends. Newbies are welcome; please have a well filled out profile and email me BEFORE you join.

Lastly, please rate your partner accordingly. When you receive your swap, rating them is a great way to let them know you received it.

If you have not received your swap in a timely manner, please email me and I will try to assist you in conacting your partner.

Please let me know if you have any questions regarding this swap.

Happy Swapping!
