NOTE: 10"-squares are known as layer cake squares in the quilting world.
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 buy 100% cotton quilting fabric and cut off both selvage edges before cutting squares so there is NO selvage in the 10" squares. (NOTE: The selvages are the two tightly woven edges of the fabric - opposite the folded edge.)
This swap is for 10" squares of Travel-themed Fabrics. Each person who signs up will send two different 10" squares of travel-related fabrics to each of the farm girls who sign up. A yard of fabric will make 12 squares (with a little left over), so the amount of fabric you will need to purchase will depend on how many sign up. Please join in - all are welcome.
Signups begin today: February 16 Signups end: Noon, March 3 Mail out by: March 17
If you have not yet participated in one of these 10"-square fabric swaps, 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 farm girl for mailing out to everyone; the phone number is only 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.
NOTE: When you join in, please "Subscribe" to this topic so that you will receive all communication regarding the topic. And we all like to hear from you when you send out fabric and when you receive fabric. And please post pics of what you make in the Showcase thread. You can go to the "Showcase" thread for using this link. http://maryjanesfarm.org/snitz/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=73817

Marti, Welcome again. Laura - Another newbie - welcome! You may need 1-2 yards of 2 different fabrics in your stash to complete this, since you have to send two different squares to each person who signs up. Sounds like your stash might be as large as mine. LOL!

I have to cut mine tomorrow. I'm cutting from my stash, so some people may get slightly different fabrics. They should go out by Tuesday.

Fabric is ordered, envelopes ready when it gets here. It says it shipped so I'm hoping any day now! and off they "travel" to you all. I can't wait to see all our different travel fabrics, time to dream!

Mine are ordered as well. Nothing inspired me locally. So I resorted to online choices. Hope you girls enjoy them and that they arrive soon.
