I am in. I haven't any plans yet, but will be thinking about it while I recover from my hand surgery happening this week. 4 months should give me plenty of time to recover from both hand surgeries and still have a great wall hanging. I may not be posting much while in recovery, just so you know. Will be looking later.
. The thing I should practice most is some hand sewing so maybe (that's a maybe 
) I can use it in this swap. I have a pattern in mind.

Thank you Ube.
This is the quilt top Wall Hanging I'm working on. It's not a big piece. 17 x 18.
I'm still debating on the wording which is why it's still the same as it was a week ago. I'll figure it out soon. Or maybe no wording at all.....

Welcome Mona G, There are no rules in this swap except for being bigger than a mug rug and smaller than a lap quilt. Take all your experience and do what you like or challenge yourself with something new. A new technique or color combination, applique, thread painting, landscapes, collage, curves, miniature piecing or paper piecing, as examples. These small creations are a perfect place to explore the new or work towards perfecting the perfect HST.
Look through some of the old swaps and see what people have made, for inspiration.
Do what you like, you don't have to please anyone or make something you think everyone will like, that is impossible.
We are here to help along the way to answer questions and help.
Lots of us like to do seasonal pieces so we can change them out every so often or sewing related themes for our sewing areas. Something whimsical is always fun too.
Hope some of this info helps you get started.
peace

Welcome Mona we love having new people join the fun!!
Here is a picture a friend of mine shared on my FB page. She isn't a quilter but knows I love quilting.
I was so impressed with how cute this picture would be as a wall hanging!!
I'll never make it but I thought it might inspire someone!
