I have received my squares and a darling little mug rug. Thanks for hosting this 2 inch square swap.

I received my 2" squares yesterday. Thank you sewbizgirl. Love the mug rug. I plan to use these squares for hexi. paper piercing. I am going on a trip next month. It will be a great on the go project.

Glad you all are happy! We will repeat this swap again in about a month. Start setting aside some new scraps to cut into 2" squares.

I find if I save 2" strips it works better... Then when time to cut for the swap, I just pile them up and make as many 2" cuts as I want sets to swap. I usually stack 10 strips at a time and then I only need to do the cutting with 5 sets of 10 strips, to get to 50. Much faster and easier than cutting each square.

So throw some strips or scraps aside for the next one... it will be here before you know it!

Just got back from a 10-day trip to Michigan and my squares were waiting on me when I got back. Thanks everyone for the squares and sewbizgirl for hosting. The fabric coaster is so cute!

Thank you to our hostess for including a gift, I am using it now.
Looking forward to the next swap!

The squares are so cute! I'm having fun going through them all.... I wish some of them were samples I could order from!
I'm going to look back through our thread to see what patterns we shared, and refresh my memory.

Next swap we will do more sets. Perhaps 12 as a max.?

Sounds good to me.
