September Fat Eighth swap ~
Sign up closes Sept. 13th

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 color choice or theme that we will swap.

This is a great stash building swap. Great for scrap quilters!

**F8's can be purchased or can be from your stash but they must be 100% cotton and they
must measure 9 x 22 inches (standard F8).
**They should be 6 DIFFERENT F8's.
~Please send something that you would like to receive~

For the month of September the theme is "colors of Autumn"

T
here isn't a lot to this swap,so we'll do a quick turn around.

mail out no later than Sept. 24th.

** Participants are required to PM me when they have sent & received their F8's and are required to post a PM thanking the sender.

One of the guilds about 3 hours away is hosting a show this weekend... so I'm hoping that some of the LQS vendors will have some nice fall fabrics. If not... I guess I have to go shopping. Aw, shucks.

mimim 09-13-2012 03:23 AM

We only had 11 sign-ups this month.

MaryMo 09-18-2012 11:30 AM

Thanks Ms Grace .... got my names. They're across the country from each other (with me in the middle) and places that would be interesting to visit. Now to get F8 mailed. Whoopee!

Ms Grace 09-18-2012 11:48 AM

ok ladies.
all names are out. we didn't have too many swappers this month.
so some of you have duplicate names... it couldn't be helped:rolleyes:

Nelco 09-18-2012 05:17 PM

Yep I got my names. one is north of me and the other is in a state that likes cheese. They will be out tomorrow (Wed)

goldendog55 09-18-2012 05:43 PM

I have a couple that have 2 sets going to them. I'll try to make them all different. Mine will probably go out on Thurs.

jaba 09-20-2012 11:09 AM

Both of mine are on their way home today. 1 is southwest and the other is southeast.

goldendog55 09-20-2012 05:58 PM

goldendog55 09-25-2012 08:11 AM

I'm sorry, but I put the wrong labels on my fabrics. I am really goldendog, but I mixed the labels with the ones that say quiltanddye.

goldendog55 09-25-2012 09:59 AM

I've never posted a photo here and am having trouble. After I choose/upload the file, I get the message "upload failed". Maybe a security issue with my computer? Can anyone help? I really want to show you my pretty new stash additions.

goldendog55 09-26-2012 07:10 AM

Your picture is probably too big. There is a chart underneath that shows you the largest size it can upload. If your picture is jpg, for example, it says the largest number that it can load. If yours is larger than this, it won't work. There are free editing programs that can make it smaller for you, but I'm not sure of their names.
When you do get it to work, don't be surprised when it says 'close this window'. I thought if I did, I would lose everything, but it will still be there.

Aren't these pretty? My favorite is the top one cause the colors are beautiful. Goldendog--you were right about photo sizing! Thanks for the tip and the fabric!
