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 do not include any selvages in the 10" squares.
This is a new swap for 10" squares of Easter Fabrics. Each person who signs up will receive 2 different 10" squares of Easter fabric from each of the other farm girls who sign up. A yard of fabric will make 12 squares, so the amount of fabric you need to purchase will depend on how many sign up.
Signups begin today: February 13
Signups end: Noon, March 1
Mail out by: March 7
When you sign up by posting in this thread, please immediately send me your name/address/phone. The name/address is so I can send a complete list to each swapper; the phone number is 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.

I have started a new thread in the Stitching and Crafting Room category where we can showcase any projects made using our 10" squares. Many of us have made quilts, table runners, and other projects using them (Marilyn's Christmas quilts for kids, Beverley's Christmas Quilt, Maryellen's Valentines table runner, Judith's Valentines quilt). This will be our own Virtual Quilt Show. I started it off with my Christmas quilt top. Please join in.

I hope you all have a nice Easter Sunday. I always think about the ladies who found the tomb empty that morning. How frightened, bewildered and excited they must have been.

Glad everyone got their squares! Tried to find more Easter fabric but our store did not have any... Loved this swap. Thanks for hosting Linda! Thanks Marilyn, not sick but having tests done again. Foot has healed good. This time was a scan for my side. All is well with that test. Happy Easter everyone!

I've been overrun with family so I'm late for thanking Sherry, Judith, Denise, and Mary for the cheerful, pretty squares. And Mary, thank you so much for posting the picture! This is a wonderful swap. Happy Easter!
Happy Day!

I got my squares from Denise yesterday! Love all these prints. Amazing that we only have one duplicate.
I am putting my Christmas squares together this weekend. I have the first borders on them. Now to iron, cut the sashing, sew on the sashing and get it to my long-arm quilter. Then it will be another UFO checked off my list.
