February FQ Swap
 

Description: This will be a monthly swap. You will sign up each month and you can choose each month whether or not to participate. You will be given a random person to swap with and that person will change each month.
Each month there will be a different theme or color that we will swap. There is a limit of two swaps per person.

**Each person will swap 5 fat quarters that go with the theme or color of the month.
**FQ's can be purchased or can be from your stash but they must be 100% cotton and they must measure 18 x 22 inches (standard FQ).
**They should be 5 DIFFERENT FQ's.

For the month of February the theme is greens, yellows, golds, purples. It can be patterns, designs, colors, solids,whatever you want that has these colors. They don't have to be a matching set to each other, but they can be if you want. If you want to send St. Patricks fabric that falls under the greens.

Since there isn't a whole lot to this swap, the turn around time will be pretty fast. Sign up until noon on February 6th, receive person's name and address byFebruary 8th and mail out no later than February 15th. Participants are required to PM me when they have received their FQ's and are required to post a PM thanking the sender. You don't need to let me know that you have mailed.

*When you send your FQ's please be sure to include your board/screen name so that people know whom to thank.

If you would like to participate please PM me with your board name, full name and address and the number of sets you would like to do. Two set limit.

Please see the rules for all board swaps and PM me with any questions. This swap has been approved by the admin.

I'm signing up. I was going to say I would wait till I got my Jan FQs but that would have been just to tease Brenda. (still smiling :D)

Can it be one of those colors, or does it have to be all of those colors?

I think it has to fall in those colors :)

Sign me up for two! PMing to make sure I am near the top of the list! (like that matters lol). I have some FUN fabric colors to share with you. And my St. Patricks counts as gold/yellow I am afraid. its different than all the rest :) oh get out your plastic beads and those shiny metal looking ones.. that feather boa and a cocktail of your chosing its time for Mardi Gras! oh oh and put out a pot of potatos and we will all have a grand meal. pour me another beer would ya luv?

I am in this mo for 2..already sent you a PM

Was wondering where you were Vanogay, I was getting ready to send you a PM and remind you. Yep I bet you do have a few of those!! I even stopped in at my 1 local shop yesterday, nada, and would you believe not nilch for Valentine or St. Patrick's Day. I couldn't believe it! She said she just didn't sell enough to buy any......no kidding when you don't have it! I am fabric challenged here. The internet loves me. Hope my pals aren't to dissappointed

I can understand. I am not much on Valentine fabrics (that's why I sat out Jan). I do have the St Patty though (I am Irish, for heavens sake - born Kathleen Flaherty Morgan - gag) I hope to get your name and can send you some wonderful greens and purples and golds to go with Mathilda's wardrobe!!
Oh, I was told by hubby we're rooting for Ravens tomorrow. See ya!

I hope you do too!!!that would be awesome. Ravens huh? I'll have to ponder over that 1. Don't really care just hope at least 1 of my squares on the bowl boards will win, now that would be heaven! Money to spend

oh Jan you didnt.. gamble did you? shocked totally shocked.I am sorry to hear your fabric challenged. If you call having a shop of fabric at your daily disposal and its YOUR own little store yeah your challenged all right. rolling eyes here..
Vanogay its one thing to love mardi gras fabric its a whole different thing to part with it. How will you do it? how will you do it? Mathilda oh dear forgot about Mathilda. is she routing for the Ravens? I am not a niners fan so I will peacefully just sew. I am happy with that. in silence. seriously happy with that.

I hope to get non mardi gras fabric the colors yes but the beads no. Its just not my .. happy spot. The irish by marriage part of me celebrates rather nicely with the St. Patricks day theme however. I have a wall hanging that needs making for the wee one. I sure do not enjoy sewing shamrocks much. using shamrock fabric would be a tad easier :)

Birthday Month
 

JC, It's my birthday month too. Maybe I'll get you as a partner.
