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 baby-themed Fabrics. Each person who signs up will send two different 10" squares of baby-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: March 27 Signups end: Noon, Wednesday, April 19 Mail out by: April 28
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

I mailed the four I had addresses for yesterday. I was mailing tags for that swap and the fabric has been ready to go, so it went, except the one new address.

I just posted the next swap for Mens fabric. This swap is for 10" squares of Cars and Trucks - fabric suitable for a quilt for a man, not for children. Please join in.

Received my cute fabrics from Jill. Love the hedgehogs! I sent my fabrics out and all should have received them-sorry I forgot to put my return address on them. I also received squares from someone else who might have done the same thing. Glad I'm not the only one so excited to put the envelopes in the mail I forget the return address.
