Hi Quilters
I'm new to quilt swaps. I have some questions.
I make up 12 sets of 5" floral squares, how many squares are in each set?
Who do we mail our squares too?
Thanks for any help you can give me.
I've been in cross stitch round robins and had fun so looking forward to quilt swaps.

Up to 12 sets with 15 different charms in each set. They get mailed to Red along with $$ for return postage. She swaps the sets out and mails them back. You might want to read the original post thoroughly as it will help answer any questions.

Hi psonoff.

there are 15 charms in each packet. Some people put an extra or two or a little goodie in with the charms but the only requirement is 15 5 inch charms.

we send them to the coordinator, redstilletos, along with 7.50 for return postage. Deadlines should be listed in the first post, and she sorts and distributes them.

hope that helps!

Thanks for the info. Red can you send me your address?

We haven't done this for a while...who can think of movie, song or book references to flowers??
First one: "Rosebud"

Edelweiss. From the sound of music

Darn! I looked at my florals and although I have quite a variety, I don't have much yardage to cut 5" squares, most already in smaller cuts for previous quilts, so since I don't want to buy fabric to participate, I will have to wait for another one.

Have fun.

Welcome to the fray, psonoff!

I just sent you my address, so please let me know if you didn't receive it.

The ladies gave you the answer, but please feel free to ask more questions if you still have them. You should have seen my first post the first time I did a swap. I thought they'd kick me out of it I was asking so many. But then...I read too much into things sometimes (wide eyed innocent look) LOL

I think you'll find this a fun bunch. I love my online quilting sisters :)
