June POM
 
~June~ Project of the Month
Sign up until May 31st
Mail by June 30th
This months project ….A Set (2) of embellished dish towels
“Summertime” themed


A set (2) of “Summertime” themed dish towels, embellished any way you choose.
There are no precise directions or criteria. I only ask that your finished project be something that you would be excited to receive.


If you’d like to join, please send a pm to me tlambing and include the following
Real Name

Email address
Severe Allergies
Can you swap Internationally?


Sign ups will be open until Tuesday May 31st. Names out soon after. You will have until June 30th to mail your project.


I’d really like to keep this about the project, so I am going to ask that we not send extra goodies. This will help to keep postage down as well as helping us not feel an obligation to shower our partner with gifts. If you feel you must do something extra, how about writing a poem or drawing a picture or sharing a joke or even a recipe? I bet you can think of something!


As soon as names are given, please contact your partner right away.
Please contact me asap if you are having trouble getting in contact.
Please continue to post on the thread throughout the swap. Let everyone know of your progress, post sneak peeks and encourage other swappers. It’s so much fun seeing everyones progress and sharing in our quilting friendship.


I ask that you let me know when you send your project and when you receive from your partner.


Any swapper that does not follow through with their obligation to the swap will be banned from future swaps and will receive negative (swap) feedback.

Ok, had to look up what a dishcloth was, here we call them teatowels. Do we buy the plain ones and decorate them or is there another way to make them?

Yes LindaC Dish towels and Tea towels are one in the same. Most people buy them and then embellish. But, you can buy the Tea towel yardage and make them yourself. (my LQS sells it by the yard) Any way you see fit to make them is great!


Don't forget to send me a PM to sign up folks. It's just too hard to keep track of people in the thread.
