Weight limit for the box is about 70lbs. I am working on the swap partner list!

KalamaQuilts 01-01-2014 11:38 AM

60 or 70 pounds :) Honest.

I'll go back and read the first post but I 'thought' it was anything from the quilt room. If it's just fabric that is fine with me...

ok reread rules. other bits are ok but the bulk of the box should be fabric. Cool.

frenchfryqueen 01-02-2014 05:40 AM

Yup- that's correct. :) Should hopefully have the partners sent out sometime today. I'll send your partner info via PM. You will then have until January 31st to send out your boxes, and please provide both your partner and me with the tracking info.

It is usually best to wait to hear from your partner before sending out your box, just to be sure he/she is still planning on swapping.

Happy New Year dear swappers!

SulaBug 01-02-2014 12:56 PM

I got my Partner's name & I am so excited waiting to hear from her on what she might like to have in her BOX, for this swap!! :D This is going to be a barrel of fun once again. Thank You Frenchfryqueen for putting this together for all of us to enjoy!!
:D :D :D :D

amyjo 01-02-2014 09:57 PM

got my partner too tonight. will send her an email asking if she has any wish list.

KalamaQuilts 01-04-2014 05:33 AM

I'm partnered with jojo4 and have PM my email
I have a request that has nothing to do with what is in the box :)

jojo4 01-04-2014 09:49 AM

Hi.

What request is that? Inquiring minds, (Well, mine.) want to know.

Jo

huntannette 01-04-2014 09:53 AM

dang didn`t see this fast enough...maybe because I`m not getting the newsletters anymore for some unknown reason...next time then....

frenchfryqueen 01-04-2014 04:22 PM

I had one swapper drop out today. Does anyone want to sign up last minute or can an existing swapper volunteer to do two boxes? It would be really helpful! Thanks!

TwinRiverFarm 01-05-2014 06:29 AM

I can surely do two !

frenchfryqueen 01-05-2014 06:51 AM

Thanks so much Twinriver!! I have sent you and your second partner a PM.

frenchfryqueen 01-06-2014 05:28 AM

All partners have been PMed. Please let me know if you did NOT receive your partner's name. :)

SulaBug 01-06-2014 11:18 AM

I am busy packing my box of fabric today for my partner!! :D I hope she likes what I am going to send her!!
:D :D :D :D

SulaBug 01-08-2014 01:19 AM

frenchfryqueen............guess what? :D Your package went to the post office today, Tuesday the 7th of January. I was able to find a few spare minutes to get it packed & my husband took it to the post office for me. I sure hope you can use what I packed for you!! I can hardly wait for my box to arrive. I just love a surprise!!
:D :D :D :D

frenchfryqueen 01-08-2014 05:14 AM

Woo hoo! Can't wait to see it. Yours is estimated to be delivered by tomorrow! :D

This thread is a little dead lately.. hope to see pictures of what everyone got in their box of goodies. :)

TwinRiverFarm 01-08-2014 06:32 AM

My boxes are going to the PO today! justducky65 and Trippgal, I hope you will like the contents. Isn't it great getting packages in the middle of winter??

Your boxes went to the post office for delivery yesterday.

paulswalia 01-09-2014 01:03 PM

I sent LindaR her package yesterday - listen? Can you hear the packages flying overhead on their way to the swappers? Just think, someday we can get them delivered by drones!

Trippgal 01-10-2014 02:29 PM

As I was dropping my box at the post to go to my swap buddy, hers had already arrived! What timing

paulswalia 01-10-2014 03:29 PM

Here's my goodies! First photo has a great piece of real calico in a brown print that will go really when with some others I'm going to use in a wedding quilt. SCORE! Aside it are some vintage type fabrics that I love and three coordinating leaf fabric. The second photo has 6 different prints - I love them all. Third photo shows 4 yardage pieces and two fat quarters that are immediately going to the stash. Last one shows a FABULOUS Hawaiian print and some presents - a note pad, some fusible product for colorwash quilts, a homemade change purse and a sweet note from my swapper. I'm a happy girl.

The one i received has lots of calicos and several kids prints. She also included a lovely cotton lace that is about 1" wide. It should be great fun to see what all this ends up being turned into. Thank you very much!

I am so excited, I got my swap box in today's mail from frenchfryqueen!! :D Thank you so much for all of the nice fabric that you sent to me. I know I will be able to make something very special from all of your choices. I will post a picture tomorrow!!
:D :D :D :D

KalamaQuilts 01-14-2014 08:01 AM

jjojo4, you package is here, but I'm not opening it until I get yours into the mail. I love to have something to look forward too.

justducky65 01-15-2014 05:44 AM

I am so sorry for the delay in posting, but sickness has been rampant in my household and I am still trying to get over a horrendous cold.

TwinRiverFarm - your package arrived safely a few days ago!! Thanks so much! I will post pics when I get a chance. It was a nice pick-me-up on a dreary day. I still have not made it to the post office as I was hoping, but just have not had any energy to leave the house. I am hopeful to get it there by the end of this week, but will send you a message when I do. :)

LindaR 01-15-2014 06:22 AM

HEY... swappers, don't forget those pictures that's half the fun of swapping, seeing what others get....

KalamaQuilts 01-16-2014 06:42 AM

jojo4 your package went out yesterday, thank you for yours

frenchfryqueen 01-16-2014 10:57 AM

I keep meaning to post pics of Sulabug's fab box I received.. but I can't see to stop drooling over the fabric long enough to snap a shot of it!

Everyone should have at least heard from their partner by now. If you haven't, please let me know.

SulaBug 01-16-2014 12:47 PM

I know I am late, but finally here is a picture of the lovely fabric that I received from frenchfryqueen. Thank you so much for all of the fabric you sent my way!!
:D :D :D :D

Trippgal 01-16-2014 06:30 PM

Twin Rivers, you should have your box tomorrow. Again sorry for the delay, i cant believe I put the wrong state in the address.

Bullock2us 01-19-2014 04:05 PM

Working hard today to get my box ready to go so it can go out in the next couple of days. Guess not tomorrow since it is a holiday. Hope my partner likes what I am sending her

TwinRiverFarm 01-20-2014 04:03 AM

I received my box from Trippgal , and it is just so much fun to go through! There are batiks, novelty prints, UFO pieces (which I already have plans for!), blenders, HSTs, charms, oh just too much to believe! I have taken pictures, just need to have DH help me download them to this stupid computer so I can show you all. Thank you, this is better than Christmas prersents!

homecaregiver 01-23-2014 05:13 AM
