Just a reminder!

Thanks for the reminder! So many things going on in my life right now, I thought I had missed this. I hope to get to the store this weekend sometime, in between basketball games and my husband remodeling the girls bedroom(what a mess!)

Vicky

Bump!

Vicky, Received your blue & yellow yesterday - Friday.

Teresa

The deadline for the blue and yellow swap is February 22. Please have your fabrics in the mail on or before that day.

"Blue and Yellow - florals, batiks, prints with both blue and yellow colors in the design."

Hi Teresa,

I mailed the blue/yellow FQ today. Extra stamps can be found in the little Hostess gift bag. Enjoy!

Thanks a Bunch!
Gwen

Hello! My blue and yellow FQs went in the mail today. Thanks! JudyLee

My yellow and blue fat quarters were sent on Tues. 2/19 and should be there by at least Friday. Thanks for hosting this swap Teresa.

Janet

Today's the deadline, please get your package in the mail postmarked with today's date. We've got some lovely fabrics for this swap!

Thanks to all who are participating!

Teresa

Teresa, have you received my fat quarters yet? I'm getting excited about getting a squishy in the mail. When are you planning on mailing them out? The anticipation is getting to me. LOL.

Janet

FQ packages received thus far:

Eileen H in NY
Jayme B in NY
Vicky H in NY
Gwen in FL
Brenda H in KY

Teresa, I mailed my fat quarters on Tuesday the same day I mailed the Feb block lotto blocks to Vicky in NY. She received my envelop on Friday. I'm getting worried now. The postage on it was $5.30 sent priority. North Carolina is a lot closer than New York. I'm hoping the envelop didn't tear up. It was a heavy envelop. Next time I'll use a priority envelop. I'll give it a few more days, if it shows up please let me know. If not I'll skip this month's swap.
Thanks.

Janet

Packages received today:

Janet in AL
JudyLee in NY

Hi Teresa, will you be mailing this swap out soon? I'm getting excited about getting these fat quarters. Thanks.

Janet

We had some beautiful fabrics for this blue and yellow swap! The packages will go in the mail on Monday.

Because we had fewer swappers, some of you will receive some of your fabrics back. This happens and cannot be avoided. I hope we will have some more members participate in the future swaps.

Thanks to all who participated this time!

Teresa

I would like to get in on the remaing swaps for 2008.

Bumping up to remind everyone about the 1930's Reproductions Fat Quarter swap for April 4! I hope we will have many swappers!

Mine are prepared and in the envelope. I'm off today and will go to the post office this morning. I'm really looking forward to this one; I've fallen in love with 1930's reporoduction fabrics.

Dianne

Teresa, I mailed my fat quarters today. Hopefully it won't take as long as it did in Feb. Thanks for hosting.

Janet

There is still time to get your 1930s Reproduction fat quarters in the mail before the deadline April 4.

Best wishes

Annabelle

Teresa, I mailed mine today - priority mail. Hopefully you will receive them soon.

Lola

Annabelle, you just need to mail your package by the 4th and then let Teresa know you're sending it. The details are in the first of this topic. I'm sending you Teresa's mailing address in a separate e-mail.

Welcome. You'll love this group.
Linda

Annabelle, you don't have a linked e-mail. We can't contact you when it isn't there. Click on my name and send me an e-mail and I'll respond with Teresa's address.
Linda

Mailed my FQs to you today!

Teresa, I have my FQ's ready to mail tomorrow morning. I stop at the PO on my way to work every day, so it will be on its way Thursday.

I received my fat quarters too. They all cooordinate so well together. Thanks everyone and especially Teresa.

Got home from a week's trip to MS and there was a nice "squishie" to welcome me home! Thanks Teresa! They are beautiful - I love the 30's fabrics!

Gwen

Time to get your red on and in the mail!

Please read the swap guidelines carefully and follow them. Your fabrics will be returned if you neglect to follow the guidelines.

~ This swap is limited to participants on this Forum.

~ Fabrics sent should be 100% quilters' cottons - no home dec or poly/cotton blends. "Send fabric you would like to receive back."

~ Please be considerate of others: if your home has smokers or if you have furry/feathered critters that like to lay around on your fabric, please wash your swap fabric and keep it contained in a sealed zip bag until time to mail it. We would all like to receive clean, fur-free fabric.

~ Size: approximately 18-inches by 22-inches also known as a quilting Fat Quarter.

~ Send a minimum of one set: buy 1 1/2 yds. of 100% quilters' cotton, cut it in half down the entire length of the fabric. Cut these two half lengths in 3 pieces each that are approximately 18"x22" each. Keep one FQ for your stash and put the other 5 into a zip bag and seal it.

Optional: You may send all different FQs if you wish or two of one design and three of another, etc. but all fat quarters must be of the designated theme.

Optional: you may label your FQs with a pinned or thread basted label with your name and location if you wish. Do not use gummed labels or tape.

*** You may send a maximum of two sets, but depending on how many quilters are swapping you may get some of your own fabrics back.

~ Put your zip bags with your set(s) into a large mailing envelope along with an 8 1/2" x 11" or larger mailing envelope with your name and mailing address on the front and return postage IN STAMPS to cover the return of your fabrics. DO NOT USE METERED POSTAGE FROM THE POST OFFICE ON YOUR RETURN ENVELOPE! Sorry for yelling that but it is necessary. A little extra postage on your return envelope would be helpful on the off chance that you are short.

June 6, 2008 - Red, Red, and More Red - red tone-on-tone, red background with tiny figures in another color, red batiks, if floral, the background should also be red, red paisley, the fabric should say "RED"

Thanks for playing, swappers!
Teresa

A reminder about the June 6 Fat Quarter Swap for reds!

Jayne,
Your package arrived in the mail today! Thanks for swapping!

Teresa

Taking this to the top!

Teresa, I'm gonna try to get mine in the mail today.

Janet

sunnycentral fl - thanks, Gwen!

I put mine in the mail today. Thanks for hosting.

Lola

My reds are cut and in the mail-today! Whew- nothing like the last minute. Thanks- Judy

Received today:

Janet W - AL

Hi Teresa, when will the fat quarters be mailed out? I'm going on vacation next week, so I guess there'll be here when I return. Did you receive many reds? I get so excited when I get a squishie in the mail. I need a life!
LOL!

Janet

I hope to get them in the mail on Saturday, but it may be Monday. Tomorrow I'm taking a class with Bonnie Hunter of Quiltsville.com - it's a scrappy class, of course! I'm so excited!!! She's the program presenter tonight at our guild meeting.

This will mean 3 trips this week to Greensboro for my quilting - yikes! So much for trying to save gas. But I've been staying at home for weeks, so I guess I'm allowed the trips this week?

The red fat quarters are in the mail today. Sorry for my being late but I've been operating with a handicap - some type of cold/sinus/allergy thing that is getting worse and affecting my hearing and making me very tired.

Thanks to all who swapped this time!
Teresa
