I am interested in a charm square fabric swap.I am willing to organize it.
- 12" squares of quilting quality fabric (not too thin)
- Please include a note to show prewashed or not
- How about 3 fabrics, and each person send 1 square of each fabric for each person?- So if 5 people sign up, each would send out 15 squares, 5 of each of the three fabrics.
- Please include sase in the same amount as the original package/envelope.
- Deadline for signup is July 15th, fabrics to be sent in by the 30th, and you will receive the packages back by the 15 of August
To sign up, please post below. :-)

I am so dying to make an autumn quilt. I need to finish a throw size pastel one for my oldest daughter for her birthday first though. It is the Corn and Beans pattern and I am using 1930's repro fabric...I love those! For her birthday she said she wants a homemade quilt and to get her ears peirced. Wow. My little tomboy is becoming a girl!!

Mine came in the mail today!! I love the different colors and styles of the fabrics. I was showing them off to my friend at dinner tonight! I thought the little kitty prints were just adorable. Now to come up with a project! Thanks so much, Lana, for coordinating this. Great job!

Catherine,
glad you liked the orange. I loved it but worried others would think it was a strange color to send. With Fall around the corner I thought it might come in handy.
I have started several projects with all the fabrics. I love it. You get something you might not have picked out at the store but it turns out to be the perfect something for a project.
