Autumn 2015 PS Squares (1.5") Swap-Sign ups close Nov. 15th
 

This quick swap is for 1.5" squares (Postage Stamps) in sets of 50 different 100% cotton fabrics. Please send what you would like to receive. Limit is 20 sets per swapper.

*Please send me a PM to sign up, and let me know how many sets you'd like to swap.

*Please use quality 100% quilting cottons only. No flannels, No homespun, No blends. If in doubt of fiber content, leave it out!

*All sets do not need to be identical. You can use any 100% quilting cottons in your stash.

*Please MAKE SURE to trim off selvages before cutting your squares. Also try to be accurate in your cutting of the squares, so they DO measure 1.5". Rotary cutting these does help with accuracy.

*Please double check that your sets have at least 50 DIFFERENT fabric squares in them. We don't want to short change anyone.

*It works best to put the squares in small snack size baggies. Be sure to label each baggie with your name, board name, etc.

Sign ups close Nov. 15th, 2015. This is a quick turn around. Sets are due to me by Nov. 22nd. I will swap them out, and get them in the mail soon thereafter.
For mailing:
Most folks have been sending in cash, stamps, or a USPS money order for a padded flat rate envelope. ($6.10) It does make things easier for me, and no worries about a bulky package. Delivery Confirmation is included. I can supply these envelopes, as they are free from usps.com.
No pre-paid printed postage! They are dated, and my P.O. does not accept it. (date issues)
If you choose to send a different envelope, please make sure there is plenty of postage $ for it.
If your sets cost more than you send in, I have no choice but to hold them until I get the difference. It all adds up. Thanks for your understanding.

*Please feel free to mail your sets early.

*If you have any questions or concerns, please send me a PM. :)

OK, we're rolling! Now for a few more sign ups! ;)

I'm in for as many sets as we have participants! I'll PM you.

I wasn't able to see this thread on the swaps page - I had to search for "squares" in the Swaps forum to find it.

Lynda- I sent you a note. :)

I'm in. Sent PM

I would like to participate. Sent you a private message.

Glad to see we've got more signing up! :)

So how many swappers are there?

I joined at the last minute (20 sets). Mariposa - I sent you a PM.

Hi Marathon Girl! Glad you're playing along!

I am so sorry I didn't see this swap till yesterday. I will be looking for the next one. Will there be a next one? Mariposa if you need another swapper I can step in! Just let me know.

I am joining in for the swap! I have a question......where do we find patterns for these little squares of fabric?
For myself, I have been making checkerboard mug rugs. I have tried Google and searched here and all I get is patterns for 2 1/2" squares. I have been making hexagons with them.

Have you tried Pinterest? Lots of ideas there~ :)

I mailed my package today . FYI , my post office is under new management . They refused to mail the padded flat rate envelope. They had an "official" cardboard with a slot cut out , they said flat rate envelope must fit through the slot . I had to put the fabric in a flat rate box . Hope no one else has an issue .

**I think I'd go higher up with your concerns. That's just wrong......maybe they've never seen the padded envelopes...

Mailed pkg on Monday! Sent PM. This is so much fun!

dj

Yay! I'll let you know when it arrives. :)

Mailed my package today, should arrive on the 21st. Love this swap!

Mailing my package tomorrow. How many swappers do we have?

Have 10 or twelve swappers~~~
