I read the directions, but was confused...it just says a SET is 50 stamps..it does not say, WASHED fabric only, or each set is ONE fabric, or each set is ONE color...could you please clarify what exactly we should be sending? Thanks!!!

Great idea! My postal clerk looked at me like I was crazy when I told him I needed a stamp for the return envelope, and did a double take when I folded it and put it in the 1st envelope. :roll:

Jacquie, each set has one 1.5" square of fifty different fabrics. We sign up for how many 'sets' we want to trade. If you send 2 sets, you will get 2 sets back. I believe the limit for this one is 25 sets.

This is my 4th swap, I am working on setting up 26 piles near my cutting board. I always make a set to give to Missi.

Yes, they need to be from washed fabrics.

It is also a good idea to put them in a baggie of some sort (each set that is) and have your name and board name marked on it each baggie. Swappers do different things here also. Some sew a double thread through an entire set and put a label on it and some skrink wrap each set, etc. Let us know if you have other questions. :-D

I mailed my stamps yesterday afternoon so you should get them soon. Can't wait to get the returned ones.
Will there be another swap? Neutrals? I'm in for whatever you do next.

neutrals AND blenders only would be great....

Well, I guess I'm in trouble, cuz mine are not all necessarily washed. I do not wash my fabrics first as a lot of them are for display. Thus, I'm not sure which scraps are washed and which ones aren't. Hope nobody has a problem with fabric dye.
