Hi! Has anyone participated in one of these? My niece sent me one and not sure if I should do it? Do they work? Do you actually get fabric back? Thanks for any info.

They are Illegal and a long time ago I did one but got nothing! Same happened with little golden books when my kids were little. Zilch!

Yeah I've gotten a couple of those recently too. I did do 1 a few years ago and got nothing. Sooooo totally up to you but I'm not doing it anymore. :thumbdown:

I just ignore them. It is illegal.

a fabric swap seems like a more sure thing

i signed up for one, too - the good thing about it is, i was invited to join the quilt group i've belonged to for over 15 years by the person I sent the fabric to - the bad thing, i never received any fabric back from anyone

I got a lottery ticket one once, I was a good girl and sent it back to her, I could have scratched it off but I didn't.

Personally I don't do chain letters of any kind. My friends and family all know not to send them to me on email either. It's one of my more peevish pet peeves.

I also resent e-mails that say "forward to X number or people so that . . . . ."

I was in two back in Massachusetts. Never got a thing.
