October Fat Quarter (FQ) Swap
 
Description: This will be a monthly swap. You will sign up each month and you can choose each month whether or not to participate. You will be given a random person to swap with and that person will change each month.
Each month there will be a different theme or color that we will swap. There is a limit of two swaps per person
**Each person will swap 5 fat quarters that go with the theme or color of the month.
**FQ's can be purchased or can be from your stash but they must be 100% cotton and they must measure 18 x 22 inches (standard FQ).
**They should be 5 DIFFERENT FQ's.

For the month of October the theme is fall. You can do fall patterns or fall colors.
Since there isn't a whole lot to this swap, the turn around time will be pretty fast. Sign up until noon on October 25th and mail as soon as you receive your names. . Participants are required to PM me when they have received their FQ's and are required to post a PM thanking the sender. You don't need to let me know you have mailed.

*When you send your FQ's please be sure to include your board/screen name so that people know whom to thank.

If you would like to participate please PM me with your board name, full name and address and the number of sets you would like to do. Two set limit.

Please see the rules for all board swaps and PM me with any questions. This swap has been approved by the admin.

I'm in. Thanks Brenda

Elisabrat 10-23-2013 05:37 AM

since when is stocking up on extra fabric a BAD START TO THE MONTH? omg I love fall fabric and well I think a jewelry store holds little appeal to me when it comes to what would I want more.. fabric wins every time. :) I am in for this month for sure. I have the fabric sitting right now on the counter.

BTW I received my Sept package from Kathy will post pictures later today. she went a whopping 9 fat quarters to me. omg!!!

jaba 10-23-2013 06:30 AM

Aprilisslowlylearnlytoquilt 10-23-2013 09:16 AM

quilts24 10-23-2013 11:43 AM

SheriR 10-23-2013 01:30 PM

Woo hoo! made the sign up!

Elisabrat 10-24-2013 02:18 PM

hey hey SheriR so sorry you needed to shop to 'feel better' I am hoping things are better now? if not I will go shopping with you, in a quilt store only.. Last night there was some game show thing where it was how many woman said they were shop oholics and well on a one to ten ratio .. I looked at my dh and said where do you put me... he looked over at me and said a .. 2. I said I even rated? he said that is cause you have this itchy finger when you go into a quilting store otherwise your not on the scale. that is how much I shop...

I am in for one!! yippppeee.. I think fall fabrics are right up there with Christmas as my favorite fabrics.. boy are they fun.. all those gorgeous fall leaves and warm colors.. I am much more a warm color fabric person.. anyone else have a color palate they lean towards???

sunrise450 10-25-2013 06:08 AM

I signed up for two and they are cut and ready to be mailed when I get the names. I have one more "thing" to make for secret santa swap, another swap (6 1/2" squares) is almost all cut out, then I think I will take it easy for the rest of the month. Maybe a couple of side swaps, who knows?
Everyone have a happy day.

Hi, Brenda. Am I too late to sign up, I was in the hospital for a week and missed this. If I'm too late that's okay, just let me know.
