Any interest in a fabric 'text' swap?
Mandylifeboats showed some super cute magnets & one had the word 'free' on it that made me think how fun it would be to have some different words or phrases on fabric.

So, what do y'all think? We could make them due by the end of January. Any interest? I'm thinking 6" squares in sets of 9 since you can get that many from a FQ...

If we can get 9 swappers I'll make it official. Lets see if I can dig up a sample...

Sounds like a tough one.

I am in. I think a 6 inch squares is a good idea. There should be enough words on a square to make a lot of magnets.

I've seen several holiday theme word fabrics out now. But I'm sure (when we start looking) we'll see other "textual" fabrics out there.

Great idea to use up some of those small scraps!

Look for Mandy's post 'toryam ----->look' she has a link but its paper. I'm still trying to come up with a good fabric alternative....of course I threw away about 50 freebie magnets when we moved!!

Good morning!! If we could get 3 or 4 more interested that would be great.

What about y'all crazy quilters out there? How cute would it be to add some text to your CQ projects?
