Update: September FQ Swap - Autumn Colors
 
September fat quarter swap – Autumn colors
SEPTEMBER FAT QUARTER SWAP – Autumn colors

This month we are swapping FIVE Autumn color Fat Quarter fabrics.

FAT QUARTERS MEASURE 18” x 22”.

Each pair of swap partners is swapping ONE SET OF FIVE FQ’s. You may sign up for more than one swap partner if you like. ((However, you may not necessarily be paired up with more than one)).

Send me a PM to sign up including your board name, real name, address and a phone number where I can reach you in case your package is not sent/received. Please PM me when you send and when you have received your FQ's. Tracking ###s are nice but optional. Per board rules if you do not follow the swap rules you risk being banned from future swaps.

PLEASE COMMUNICATE WITH YOUR SWAP PARTNER WHEN YOU HAVE RECEIVED YOUR FQ’S.

MAILING DEADLINE IS SEPTEMBER 10TH. THIS IS ETCHED IN STONE.

Sign-ups are open until September 3[SUP]RD[/SUP] then names will be posted by the 5[SUP]TH[/SUP].

YOU MAY NOT POST COMPLAINTS ON THE BOARD. Any problems, concerns, etc. are to be PM’ed to me and I will deal with it. If you do not follow these rules you may not swap again the next month.

Don't tell me I'm the only one with Autumn colors too!

jclinganrey 08-30-2015 03:39 PM

LOL! Give it a day or two. We'll have more sign-ups.

kiffie2413 08-31-2015 09:45 AM

I have Autumn colors..And paisleys... Sorry just a busy last few days. I'm in for either one.
Regards,
Kif

AnngelAnne 09-01-2015 04:03 AM

This sounds like fun, I will give it a try.

Serianas 09-01-2015 04:23 AM

Can we play if we arent in the US?

kiffie2413 09-01-2015 04:41 AM

I have sent, and can again send international. Usually as long as there's a willing partner, the swap hostesses are fine with it.
So I'm thinking as long as it's okay with jclinganrey, it's all good.
I'd love to have international fabrics!
Regards,
Kif

kiffie2413 - either
sewellie -
jclinganrey - paisley
tumrub (2)

How can you live in New England and not have autumn colors. I love paisley, but don't have many, so autumn colors for me.

AnngelAnne 09-01-2015 08:45 AM

Actually I am good with international, autumn or paisley, I have only autumn, but will take anything from anywhere in swap. I'm good to go.

Serianas 09-02-2015 01:52 AM

Its probably not normal how excited I am about this lol Mine are all packaged and waiting for a name :D

The only ones I dont think I will be able to take part in are the 'makey' ones because between work, horse and charity work, there arent many hours left in a day...

AnngelAnne 09-02-2015 02:35 AM

Well, that makes two of us that aren't normal then, thankfully I am not alone, as I am excited about this too. Its like Christmas in the mail for me. I love seeing what other people's choices are. If you are like me, working all day, there isn't enough hours in the day, I spend a lot of time at work thinking about what I would be doing if I were home and planning the craft I am working on at the time. What a way to relax.

Yup thats me too! I hate my job so spend plenty of time staring at the walls dreaming of being at the sewing machine. Also when Im riding, I go into great detail about the next project or ideas I have, chatting merrily away to Jack who I dont think is taking a blind bit of notice... people we pass must think im bonkers...

jclinganrey 09-05-2015 04:28 AM

OK! Here we go. Please contact your partner for mailing information and confirm your preferences - autumn or paisley. Remember you're sending ONE SET of 5 FQ's per partner. Be sure to let your partner know when you've received the FQ's. Have fun and share lots of pictures!!

kiffie2413 - either Serianas - Autumn
sewellie - tumrub (2) Autumn
jclinganrey - paisley Leesewzany - paisley
tumrub (2) Autumn sewellie AND AnngelAnne
AnngelAnne - Autumn tumrub (2) Autumn


Any questions - let me know - - -

kiffie2413 09-05-2015 05:47 AM

I'm so super excited to swap with a partner across the pond again!
My last one was a couple of years ago... Lynn from Australia...
I've messaged Serianas, and will mail out her pkg on Tuesday, since Monday there will be no mail service.
Have a safe and Happy Labor Day everyday!

I came back from a wedding this weekend to find happy mail from jclinganrey! She did send 5, but I auditioned one for a project and now I can't find it. It will turn up somewhere unexpected. I have a two year old that loves fabric *almost* as much as me! Thanks again swap buddy! I mailed mine last Monday, I hope it's arrived!

Sewellie, I do believe we both have tumrub because she is doing two packages. I too have her, and am sending autumn out today. I do believe you have her also. The way it is written shows tum has two people, and those are named, and then you are down for one, being tum, and I am down for one, also being tum. If I am wrong, please say so, but I do believe this is how it is.

Thank you for clearing that up for me, AnngelAnne, I was really confused. (I am blonde, you know) tee hee
So I'm sending tum her pkg of autumn today.

Lol, no problem. Just think what a selection she will have. Have a great day.

jclinganrey 09-08-2015 07:33 AM

You are swapping with Tumrub. Please mail your FQ's to her.

Look at these AWESOME paisley FQ's I received from Lee. Plus an extra FQ! Thanks!!!

sewellie 09-08-2015 08:07 PM

I sent my FQ's (Autumn) to tumrub today. Expected delivery date is Friday, 9/11/15. After seeing all the beautiful paisleys I wish I had chosen that. Oh, well, I snoozed and I loosed. :)

Serianas 09-08-2015 11:35 PM

Just checked the package on its gone from Barnsley to Chicago in two days! thats impressive!

AnngelAnne 09-10-2015 02:48 AM

Tumrub.....my package went out in the mail yesterday afternoon. My first stop when I got out of work. Will be on edge until I know it got there. Hope it works for you.

Leesewzany 09-10-2015 06:23 AM

I found my missing FQ! It was in my...box of zippers?

Serianas 09-11-2015 05:07 AM

I think my package liked Chicago so much its gone on a little sight seeing tour... or they could not have updated the website... either/or

So glad you found it. I bet your 'little gremlin' thought it needed to be with the zippers! Of course!

Received my pkg from Serianas from "across the pond". That was fast for international shipping!
I mailed hers 1 day after she sent mine.. due to the post office being closed for Labor Day holiday here in America.
She asked if it is a positive holiday? I told her these days some people get the day off with pay, some do not get the day off with pay. Some people work, but get extra pay for working a holiday. And some people work, and it's just like working a regular Monday. I sent her a link explaining the origin of Labor Day holiday, since it can sound slightly confusing...lol.
Anyways, here's my fabrics (and a pretty gold ribbon that was tied around the fqs), aren't they lovely?

Thanks again, Serianas!

Kif
PS pretty fqs being swapped! Cute bag, Jclinganrey!

Sure didn't take you long to use your lovely paisley. I am getting to like paisley more and more. I really got a package that spoke autumn to me. All I could think when I sent mine out were the fall colors of the leaves as they start to turn, but this package has fall written all over it. I love it. Thank you so much tumrub.

Serianas 09-18-2015 03:03 AM

Mine arrived this lunchtime!! Thank you so much Kiffie! They are gorgeous and my fabric inspector approved too :D Arg so excited to go home now!

sewellie 09-18-2015 06:26 PM

To tumrub, have you received the FQ's that I mailed on 9/8/15? I have not heard anything from you and I've been worried that they did not arrive. Please let me know.
Thanks, Ellie

kiffie2413 09-18-2015 07:37 PM

More pretty fqs being sent.
Serianas, so happy you like what I sent. And that they made it across the pond safely. Your inspector helper is a cutie...
Regards,
Kif

Lovely fabric everyone- missed out on this one. Didn't realize Autumn had been added-oh well maybe the next one!
