Anastasia’s Table Topper/Runner Swap -- Closed
 
Anastasia’s Table Topper/Runner Swap

This Swap will close February 5th.

Welcome to my corner. This is a Table Topper or Table Runner swap.

A Table Topper would be any shape that would be a centerpiece; this should be a minimum size of 16" across the longest point. For instance, I made a hexagon table topper and it is 16" from one corner to another at its widest point and each of its six sides are 8".
A Table Runner should be a minimum size of 12"x28". Table runners are typically longer than they are wide.

How it works:
This swap will be a partnered swap. You will work with your partner to determine colors and sizes that will work with them. THE THEME IS SPRING.
Design and method will be up to the creator but since this is something that will be on a table and likely spilled on, make sure whatever you make is washable on at least a gentle cycle.
Please PM me with the following information by February 5th. I will then match up names and get them returned to you by February 10[SUP]th[/SUP]. You will have until March 15[SUP]th[/SUP] to mail the finished product.

Board Name:
Real Name:
Address:
City:
State:
Zip:
Phone #: (this will NOT be given to your partner, this is for my use only in the event that a problem should arise)
Do you have any allergies:
Can you ship international:
Do you have the ability to post pictures:

It is encouraged and acceptable to post pictures of fabric choices, progress. I would like some lively conversation; someone has to keep me awake through midterms and finals.

Please notify me as soon as possible if you feel you cannot complete your obligation. Please don’t sign up if you don’t think you can achieve a finished product in the time allotted.

People who fail to follow-through and do not notify me will be banned from any of my future swaps (should there be any) and your name may be given to other swap hosts. Obviously, things happen in life and I will certainly consider that, but you must communicate. I reach out fairly regularly to check on progress so there is no excuse for not telling me if there might be a delay.

So jump on board everyone and join the fun!

Now for the legalese.

****Please make sure to read the general rules that apply to all swaps here at the Quilting Board:http://www.quiltingboard.com/t-20154-1.htm ****

I am required to insist that participants send me a monthly PM to verify that they are still active in this swap and are working on their promised project.

I am required to insist that participants notify me as soon as they have finished their quilt and are ready to mail it.

Once I have received notice that both partners are done and ready to mail, I will send both a PM to let them know it’s time to mail.

I am required to insist that all participants send me verification of shipment, to include tracking information.

Participants are required to ensure packages will not arrive “postage due.”

Any and all other fees, such as import duties, taxes, etc imposed by the recipient’s government are the sole responsibility of the recipient.

Absent legitimate and reported mitigating circumstances, participants who have not fulfilled their obligation to ship by March 15th shall be deemed “late” and risk receiving Negative [Swap] Feedback.

Please keep in touch with me as required. Please let me know right away if something happens that will interfere with your ability to complete your project on time.

Swappers should treat each other as friends and focus on the fun. So … please be prepared to be flexible, patient and understanding if necessary and appropriate.

Okay I'm 4th on the list. Can't leave me out. Hurry I need a partner so she can tell me what color she wants

Elisabrat 01-23-2013 07:35 AM

I need color Jaba! anyone suprise me? UGH everyone hates that one. people speak loud and clear on your hopes color wise. it is so much more fun to make something you know might actually be liked.

color oh dear.. I think lilacs. My mom had lilacs planted outside our livingroom widows. I loved the smell of them. Boy she always had a magnificent garden full of flowers, spring summer. oodles of flowers fruit trees blossoming in spring wow what a move back in time. I never realized how many hours she spent there. She oil painted, cooked gourmet foods, sewed like no tomorrow, knit with her eyes closed. wow she gave all of us a bit of each gift. I sew and cook, my one sis is a master gardner, makes natural soaps she sells at williamsburg festivals .. she paints oil. A lil sis who scrapbooks and crafts and an older who is bigtime into gourmet and gardening. You see these are precious gifts. a way of continuing on. So.. for me.. how about lilacs or tulips or hyachynths or well flowers?? how about flowers. oh parnter of mine maybe that is easy. love the theme anastasia. ready set go!
oh yes hello Jaba and Tracibug. welcome back! this is going to be fun.

I guess I'm number 5 - good thing I learned to count; I had a lot of fun doing the last swap - I couldn't let this one go by without participating. I too love to garden - not even close to master status - just a dabbler/tinker - as they say a jill of all trades and master of none.
