Don't you love those minis!? I hope we do it again because I have spools and Scottie dogs that are to die for!!
|
Had to order some fabric (darn!), but I'm in! :) My 6 sets will be: watermelons, fried chicken, grilled cheese sandwiches, M&M-like candies, chili peppers, snack mix (like Chex mix), and corn on the cob.
(Yep, there are 7 listed, because the fried chicken is kind of a large print, so I'm not 100% sure if it'll be usable. I bought an extra for backup.) I'll have to let you know on the twist. I know I have enough for 4 sets, but I'm hoping to come up with 6. :) |

Ugh! I am so mad at myself!! When I went to make my first cuts in the birdhouse material, I had 2.5" on the mind, even though we said 5"! So.....I ended up with not enough for 15 full size, only 8. And the birdies FQ only gave me 12 full size. (I hadn't bought it with a swap in mind, thus the FQ purchase.)
So anyone who gets a full size birdie will get an extra 2.5" birdhouse as a bonus, and full size birdhouse swappers will get a bonus 2.5" birdie. Here are the other twist fabrics. I love the birthday cakes! |

owlvamp, it is very possible that I am blind, but I don't see the requirement for the fabric to be food or picnic themed. I know and others who've done the last swap know, but anyone new might have missed this part.

Oh no! I'm sorry! Do you want to do the birthday cakes and I can use my tiny spools fabric? I can definitely use the birthday cakes for something else. (The fabrics I pictured are for the twist...so not necessarily bugs or picnic food, I think...just mini scale.) Really, I am fine with that. Just let me know. :)

Nope, you beat me to it, fair and square! Besides, I like them enough to save them for another project. They're just so cute!!
|
Okay, 6 sets, and 6 twists. PM-ing shortly. :)

Be creative in your shopping...it would be great to not have too many sending me the same fabrics! In doing this I've only had a couple doubles. If you want you could post pictures of fabric it helps others in what they will send. Not a must though. This swap is all about a picnic. What ever you would bring to a picnic is a loud. Lots of insects/bugs and food. What would you put in your picnic basket? So put your thinking caps on. Ask if you have questions. It's under number three! Thanks |
5. **Now for the twist**.
This is for those tiny prints on fabric. So the ones who would like to cut them to 2 1/2 " charms they can without losing the print. Any children's print. Please no lines, dots, flowers or things that you wouldn't want in a child's quilts please. Okay these are actually 5" charms for the twist. * ( So the ones who would like to cut them to 2 1/2 " charms they can without losing the print.)* I just put this here because some might want to cut there 5" into 2 1/2 " charms. I'm sorry for the confusion. If you cut them already send them in I'll trade them out. Did everyone think they are 2 1/2 inch charms? If so and you cut them already we can leave it at that. |
