Maryellen received my beautiful fabric today in the mail and I love the Easter card, that is so cute and neat the way it folds up. You did an awesome job on the card. Thank you and for the tea too.
Farmgirl Hugs & May all your Wishes come true.

Thank you Maryellen...love both the fabric and that you took the time to make us cards! Spring can not come soon enough here...
What are the chances of not getting any of the same prints from anyone? This is my first swap so just wondering... |

Cristy,
Received your blocks today. Love them! So cute. Thank you and have a blessed weekend. Can,t wait to get more.
My blocks will go out Monday or Tuesday. After I signed up I had a hard time finding Easter fabric. None at Hobby Lobby, Walmart or 2 local quilt shops. I couldn' believe it. Finally JoAnn's had it so I drove 40 miles and was happy to have a selection. When I went to have it cut I had 5 bolts. I noticed that the objects were all running uphill instead of straight. The clerk asked if I still wanted it. I said no. Who would take it? She then told me that a lot of the fabrics are not good. Lesson learned. I will always unwrap the bolt and look before I buy. I was glad I saw it before I took it home. There was another bolt bad also. So I got 3 out of 5 fabrics.
Anyone else have a problem? Do any of you buy online? Looking forward to many blocks and good friendships.
Be Blessed and Be a Blessing,
Darlene

Hi Christy,
Sorry for such a hard time with fabric. Seems Easter themed fabric is really hard to find in some areas.
I chose to play on Easter colors and the theme of Spring and rebirth. So my fabric goes out Monday, and I hope it's acceptable to you all.
Have a lovely day,
Mary

I ordered my Easter fabrics from Etsy and EBay, because I ordered in December, no one had any Easter available. I saw a lot of cute prints. One piece I received was probably the end piece from a bolt, and needed pressing.

My fabrics went out today. I've received some wonderful squares from Linda, Maryellen, Christy and Rebecca. This is the first time I've done this swap and I'm totally hooked! Thanks so much for hosting, dear Linda! I also couldn't find much at my local fabric shop, they had only one I liked. I got the other on eBay. This is so much fun!
Happy Day!
Peace in our hearts, peace in the world

I went to Joann's for my fabric this time and there really wasn't a large selection. While I was putting them together, and cutting them this morning I noticed, one of mine is the same as one of the squares Rebecca sent. Not telling which, you'll see :) (snicker) but we're bound to have duplicates at some point. sigh.

No problem with duplicates. Many are using them for multiple projects/items and even two alike in a quilt top are fine.

Received lovely fabric today. Thank you Lisa, Marilyn and Maryellen. Yummy tea and a very special card from Maryellen.Thank you sisters.
Mine are going out in the morning. Can't wait to get the rest! I think I'm going to make table runners or table toppers for my daughter and daughter in law and myself of course. LOL! Then I will write them a little card telling them who contributed to their gift. Your names and state. No addresses. I know they will love that. See you will all share in their gift. Thanks in advance my friends.
Be Blessed and Be a Blessing,
