If "meanie" means that you insist that the participants follow the guidelines - I think you deserve a medal!

I really want to do another I spy swap. I have so much going but I just may do it. I will have to hit you up for some tips and pointers if I do.

sorry for the double post. Was trying to edit but ended up reposting.

Anyone interested in hosting?

Ok so what does it involve to "HOST" ??

Id probably be interested if I knew what I was getting myself into... :lol:

I may be interested as well if I knew exactly what is involved

OK...I have a really silly question...what is an "eye spy" swap? What does the "eye spy" mean? thanks! :D

Terryl 10-07-2010 12:46 PM
"I spy" is usually a child's quilt with objects to identify in them, such as "I spy a dog", "I spy a fire truck" etc

The last swaps were for five inch squares of novelty fabric -it had something that one could name on it - cows, chickens, apples, cars, fish, etc.

Well i'm not sure what it involves either. I have never hosted but I had a lot of fun with the squares I got back last time.
