A few of us did this before Christmas and it went well so lets do it again!!!!!!!!

We will swap sets of 50 1.5" squares from different quilt fabrics cut into 1½ inch squares. Please send what you would like to receive.

You can cut your squares from yardage, fat quarters or from your scrap basket. As long as there are 50 different squares in each pile you are OK.

It seems to work best if you put the little squares in zip lock baggies the snack size.

This is quite a bit of cutting and lots of us get our squares from scraps, etc. Sets are due to me by March 31. I will then swap them out and send them to you.

Signup closes on 17 March 2010. If you are interested let me know, and how many sets you think you would be interested in trading. I am setting the limit at four sets so hopefully no one gets two sets from the same person.

When you send me your sets send me a SASE with enough postage for me to send you the same number of sets you sent me.

Please make sure i have your sets by March 31st, 2010

Questions let me know! Send me a PM so I can get you on the list

That is exactly what I do. I try as hard as I might to not give someone two bags that are the same.

Both sets can be exactly the same so only 50 different fabrics. Last swap someone sent me four sets total and they let me know that two sets were the same, but completely different from the other two sets. Knowing this was great cause I could send one person two sets from this person. Does that make any sense :?:

More questions let me know. I hope I didn't just really confuse everyone :)

Star asked all the questions I had. At first I didn't understand that the 50 squares were from 50 different fabrics.

I think I am in for 2 bags
