Posted - Sep 02 2009 : 12:03:25 PM Would anyone be interested in a charm square exchange of 6" fabric blocks? ..I don't know how to organize this so if someone would take charge of gathering addresses & emailing them to all the participants. We could have each participant list their preference of color or theme & everyone can search their stash to mail two 6" squares directly to each one. Or Maybe this could even be an on going thing with a different color or theme each month, but lets start with one month. So we need someone to organize this & need for anyone interested in exchanging to sign up...You can sign up twice but remember that you will be then be obligated to send 4 squares to each one.

Posted - Dec 08 2009 : 2:03:12 PM I have been making tote bags lately, I'm addicted to them now! With the charms received from this swap, I had just enough to make this wonderful tote bag! I added just a couple of extra squares to make the rectangle shapes I needed, then lined the inside with fabric I had here. The inside has two pockets so that I can use it as a hand bag, which I will be doing. I love it!

Posted - Oct 09 2009 : 05:51:43 AM I have a question. ??????
Do we need to make something keeping the squares the same size or can we alter the size and shape of the fabric?

Posted - Sep 26 2009 : 05:17:18 AM YES! Really sorry I didn't respond yet...I have not been on as much as I wish I could be!!! I look forward to participating in some of the charm swaps when I can too...I appreciate you ladies organizing this as I am going through a divorce right now & can't take on any responsibilities.

Hi all. I noticed that my response to Victoria is not here now. Is there some site movement going on here or do we have a ghost? Oh well.
Victoria, I am referring to the pattern of the fabric. Say you have fabric with the pattern of chickens and another of red and white ginham you would like to share. Then you would cut 11 chicken fabrics and 11 red and white gingham fabrics. All blocks will be 6" x 6" squares though. Angela, sounds good to me. I will probably do the same.
Again, I would love to hear from Suzi (suzifire) just to get her blessing to organize this swap as I don't want to step on any toes. Hope you understand.
Have a good day!
