I would like to host a Celebrate America Swap for the
237th birthday of the United States of America.
For this swap, we will exchange anything
with flags. I see so many pretty fabrics in the stores
that honor our country that can be used. Maybe you choose to make a flag fabric apron for the July 4th barbeque, or a set of
potholders, or a framed patchwork flag or a banner to display.
This swap should be for one larger item, such as an apron or large banner or several small items, like a set of fabric napkins and matching potholders. Handmade items are preferable, but if you cannot a store bought item is fine. Maybe it can be personalized to make it farmgirl special.
Extras are nice, but optional.
Sign ups until Tuesday, June 4, Partners will be posted no later than Saturday, June 8.
Mailout no later than Tuesday, June 25, so everyone will have their swaps by their July 4th Celebration.
This is my first swap. I want to make it a fun for everyone, and I am looking forward to celebrating the beginning of our great country with swaps from our farmgirl sisters!

Thank you to everyone for joining me in this fun swap.
My swap partner was not able to share a photo of what I
sent to her, so I wanted to share it with everyone. It is a table runner,
cloth napkins and napkin rings

Debi,
Thank you so much for the sweet package you sent. I love the red white and blue crocheted star. It is beautiful. Placed it on my coffee table with other patriotic decorations. Also, thank you for the flag, ceramic star, baking cups and picks which will really be useful for 4th of July cupcakes. And, for the card, stickers and flag packaged butter mints. They are so yummy for a sweet treat. My DH loves them. I hope you have a wonderful 4th of July holiday. Your package is in the mail. Hope you like your package of goodies.
Hugs!
Judy

Julie,
Thank you so much for all the wonderful gifts in my swap. Sorry for the delay in posting - some of my family came down from Michigan for the weekend. My sister loved the table runner so much she signed up to Mary Jane's Farm! I love everything!! I already hung the heart decoration in the living room and I am planning to make the Mexican dip in the star bowl this weekend for my husbands birthday. The blueberry soap smells wonderful and I needed a new scrubber thing! I wish I could knit and crochet to make things like the towel. Maybe someday. I always listen to country music so the CD will get played a lot and I never seem to have enough notepads! Thank you again for everything. Your package will be in the mail tomorrow or Thursday.

Sandy~ Thank-you for such a wonderful Celebrate America Farmgirl swap! Wow, there were so many wonderful surprises!! I am going to enjoy decorating my home with everything for the rest of June and July!
For some reason, when I upload this photo, the software makes it sideways!! What to do??? I can't figure out how to fix it because the photo is correct in my archive. You just have to look sideways!!
Thank-you so very much for making this swap special in ways only Farmgirls know how to do!!
Happy Monday to you and have a great week!!
