Looking for Ideas
 

HI Everyone,

I some how became the Swap Swami person of our local Quilt Guild. Now I need to come up with simple swaps. I have a few but looking for more.

this is what I have so far.

1. mug rug

2. pin cushion

3. quilt block

4. hot pad

What else can I do?

Thank you for the help!!

Fat quarters, siggie blocks, needle case

How about fabric coasters? I made a lot of them out of a Thanksgiving print and use them every year. They are super easy. I found this pattern on line: http://allsorts.typepad.com/allsorts...ross_coas.html

table runners, table toppers, hot pads, sewing cases, pillow cases, little bags for sewing goodies, blocks, rotary cutter holder

A thread bag which is also a pin cushion.

zippered bags, place mats, card wallets, book covers, kindle covers, laptop covers, grocery bags. blocks for any of these things.

Ugly fabric swap is always fun; Christmas ornament (handmade); Secret Santa

If you take your own mug to the meetings, you could make lug-a-mug bags to swap. Basically it's just a little quilted draw string bag with a base, it was a free pattern years ago, not sure if there's one out there on the web now or not. This is not the pattern I used but I see they have given permission for it to be used in a guild setting. http://limestonequiltersguild.files....ept2011bom.pdf

How about tissue covers. I am making bread cloths at the moment. They are cross stitched but the baskets can be filled with little quilting items.

UFOs that are never going to make it ... could take on a new life in a new home!
