NO THEME ~ABC~ SWAP

Please PM me w/ you info ~ Name~real & board, Addy's~home & EMAIL and your Phone # along w/ which letter(s) you'd like. You can take no more than 2. I'll add you to the list after I receive your info. Whose ever PM w/ a certain letter that I get 1st, gets that letter.

You can send different fabrics for ea letter, (ie- IF you have 'D' and have 2 different dog fabrics, that'd be ok to send in)

Only LGS quality fabric, please, which needs to be WASHED, IRONED, CUT into 27 - 6.5" sq w/ selvage cut off BEFORE CUTTING into sq's The extra set will be for a charity quilt. 1 yd should be enough to get that many sq's UNLESS YOU NEED TO FUSSY CUT! (I usualy buy a little extra incase of shrinkage or mistake in cutting)

Place each set of sq's in a separate baggie and slip a card w/ your name/addy & letter on one side and my name and addy on the other.

All sq's needs to be in my hands by AUG 13th...that's 6 weeks from today! I think that gives you plenty of time to get your sq's mailed!

~Please enclose a SASE (self address STAMPED Envelope...NO Metered mail!!!~

I'll put a Wink by your name when you let me know you've mail and a Big Grin when I've rec'd your sq's!

Mary Lou - that's very sweet of you but you got in there before me...nature of the game. I should have made more of an effort to get on here earlier this morning. I asked for an alternative letter so I have something to focus my shopping on this weekend Smile

If you are looking for fabric for this swap try here.

http://www.equilter.com/cgi-bi..._main.html?catid=145

It is the clearance section of equilter. There are several (many) fabrics that will work AND they are on sale, many less than $5 a yard.

I doubt I have anything in stash for the letters still available, but I'll look tomorrow. Guess I'll have to find a project for the adorable "G" fabric, or hold onto it for the next swap!! Hope everyone is having a safe yet fun Fourth of July!!!

Oh dear... Washed, ironed, cut my "I" squares; packaged them nicely (including a SASE that returns the squares to my daughter in VA, since I'll be there for the month of September.) Gave the package to DH to mail today, which he promptly did. Except, he sent the package to my daughter in VA instead of to you, Lynne! I think there will still be plenty of time for my daughter to pop it back in the mail and get it to you by the deadline -- if it doesn't melt: my "I" fabric is ice cream!

LOL!! Karen, I don't like melted 'ice cream'...tell your DD to refreeze it b4 mailing to me! There's plenty of time, so don't worry!

There are still 3 letters left...any takers??

I haven't been able to get on for a couple of days but glad to say "the swap is FULL". My friend wanted 'Y' and Monkeymom asked for 'A'. I normally don't let anyone take 3 letters but she asked for it for her friend.

Can't wait to see what fabric you all send me!!!

Thanks for letting me know you've mailed, Crazyboutquilting.
