This is my first time doing this swap just a quick question. Do I send out all 5 fqs to the person I'm supposed to send to or just one?

You will send one set (5 FQ's) to each person you are given. If you signed up for 1, you will send one set of 5. If you signed up for 2 you will send 2 sets of 5.

Each FQ in a set must be different.

HTH.

Howdy Brenda,
Thanks for the email, I over did my volunteering for the local Lions Club annual fundraiser & spent a week in bed recuperating. So I didn't get your reminder to sign up in time. Sorry I didn't. have a great swap & maybe I'll make the next month!

Mailing my FQs tomorrow to my August partner. She's north and west of me. Neat Asian inspired fabrics coming your way! :)

Two are going east of me and one is going west.

What a fun idea. I probably have some around here already. But, I've already shipped. Next time maybe.

I've done this in the past but ran out of postcards for this round. It is fun to see an area from our swappers eyes. I'll have to go get more if you'll like them ... or some of you anyway.

And my fabrics are wheeling down the road ... one set going south, the other east. Who will get her's first?

sustraley 07-29-2012 03:24 AM

Sent mine out on Saturday. Hope both people like them. Neither is going too far from me.

FQ's have been sent out today. Could they be for you? Let me give you some clues your State bird is in the title of a novel where prominent characters are Scout, Atticus and Boo Radley. Your State's flower is the iris. Dolly Parton and Minnie Pearl are famous people from your State. Also the raccoon is your state's animal. Hope you enjoy your fq's when you recieve them :)

So glad you got them and liked them. I made sure I kept a set of these also. Such a happy block can come from these I thought. Some of my fav's.
