NOTE: When you join in, please "Subscribe" to this topic so that you will receive all communication regarding the topic.
This swap involves no sewing (your project is determined by what you want to make with your fabric squares) - only buying fabric and cutting it into 10" squares. Please buy 100% cotton quilting fabric and cut off both selvage edges before cutting squares so there is NO selvage in the 10" squares. (NOTE: The selvages are the two tightly woven edges of the fabric - opposite the folded edge.)
This swap is for 10" squares of polka dot Fabrics. Each person who signs up will send 2 different 10" squares of 100% cotton polka dot fabric to each farm girl who signs up. A yard of fabric will make 12 squares (with a little left over), so the amount of fabric you will need to purchase will depend on how many sign up. Please join in - all are welcome.
Signups begin today: today, July 26
Signups end: Noon, Friday, August 18
Mail out no later than: Friday, September 1
When you sign up, please immediately send me your name/address/phone. The name/address is so I can send a complete list to each farm girl for mailing out to everyone; the phone number is only in case I need to contact you for any reason.
We have been enjoying these swaps and it is fun seeing all the different fabrics we choose. I hope you will join us.
We all like to hear from you when you send out fabric and when you receive fabric. And please post pics of what you make in the Showcase thread. You can go to the "Showcase" thread for using this link. http://maryjanesfarm.org/snitz/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=73817

I have polka dots on my mind today and seeing spots! lol. Wow! There is so much polka dot fabric out there. Are we talking strictly 2-color fabric? Can they be multi-color dots, polka dots on a patterned background? Help, please! I'm getting excited about ordering my fabric!

I love your optimism, Marilyn! Wouldn't these squares make a great mixed binding, sashes and alternating squares to other patterns! Just can't wait to see what everyone picks?
I haven't cut my squares yet, girls...we leave again tomorrow for a week. I will cut and mail them as soon as I get back next weekend.
