May Fabric Swap!

I have decided to go with a fabric swap this month!! I will cap the groups at 5 people. You will need to purchase 1mt of fabric, and each person in the group will receive 20cms of each fabric. Pre-cut would be great, but if that isn't possible, i will try cut even lengths. I got the lady at spotlight to cut mine and ended up with 5 lengths, about 25cms each!!

You will need to send your fabric to me by the end of May, with a stamped self-address envelope. Please make sure your return envelope is large enough to hold the metre of material as it gets a little bulk when cut. If you need my address please pm me. And questions, please ask.

OK - gals...For the first group, I fell in love with a quiliting material....with quilt squares on it. I realise now that it is home, if I cut it into 20cm lengths, I will cut the squares in half, ruining the pattern if you want to use it that way. Are you all OK if I cut it into about 10cm lengths and then cut some of those lengths in half...so you would get one full length, one shorter length and one sqaure each? If any of you understand all that, you deserve a medal. Basically, do you trust me enough to cut it to mazimise the use of the squares if you so desire?

Anthea, just cut it however you think is best. It wont matter if its not in strips.

OK, I will take the last spot in the 3rd group and will add Treena to the list too (as she didn't add herself above.) I take it we are all set to go now!

Way to go girls, 3 groups FULL!! I am going to say it doesn't matter what type - eg, cotton etc - the fabric is, as long as YOU would use it on a layout!! I know that i will be cutting the fabric to make flowers or bows or what not, so it really doesn't matter to me what it is!!

Yaay Now to settle on a fabric LOL

Sorry Sue... I'll catch on to the way things are done one day

Hey all, just a quick question. Is everyone happy to send A4 envelopes for this swap? I am looking at my material thinking there is no other way I will get it there. Let me know if this is alright. (I am guessing that we will be all in the same boat though, that is a fair bit of material we are sending....
