aborning, I think we'll stay with 50 charms/set, unless I get 10 feedback requests for 30 which is half of participants for 30 count swaps. Did your pkg arrive?

Michelle, so glad you joined & like the charms. It's a good idea to build your stash ahead of a swap. I hope you found the Picture thread showing 2.5" quilting projects!

jaba, nice pic! Hope things have settled in at your new digs.

3 more confirmations to go!!!! You wonderful swappers make hosting so easy!!!
hugs,
dj

I received my package yesterday. I think, or was it the day before. Thank-you DJ for hosting such a love swap. I love the pretty and different fabric selection. Thank-you everyone.

Now to spend the next few months selecting fabric for the next swap. I'm hoping we keep it 50 fabric with a few more sets, may be 16 or 30 sets? One strip 2 1/2 by 40 = 16 2 1/2" sq candies. So 2 strips will yield us 32 blocks. Just a thought.

happylab, I like it when at least 20 sign up, but 32 swappers would be ideal! Any ideas on how to make that happen?

Waiting on 2 to confirm pkg arrived. If you haven't already....Please post here that you received your pkg.

hugs,
dj

Sorry everyone about my delay in responding. I did receive my package Thursday. I have been super busy and haven't hardly been home. Haven't had time to look at all my charms, either yet. But going to a Quilt Retreat tomorrow until Wednesday afternoon. WooHoo!!!! Thanks to everyone for participating. Everyone sends nice charms.

aborning, your 3 day retreat sounds like fun, enjoy it!!!
Haven't heard from KarenG, must be very busy, too. USPS tracking web site says it was delivered but I hope she will confirm to me via PM.
Thank You to all you wonderful swappers for a successful swap. Hope to host a 2.5" Winter Swap in mid January, so keep an eye out for the thread.
PM me if you have ideas or just to chat. Happy Holidays to each of you!!!!
This swap is officially closed.
sisterly hugs,
dj
