Hello ALL - The list of partners will be posted by tomorrow morning. Glad to have ya'all in the swap - happy sewing. Welcome to the new swappers that have joined recently.

This is a continuation of the previous Monthly Quilting Bee Block Swap. If you have already signed up in the previous version, you are still signed up for the new one. All rules remain the same -

Each month, you will make one block for an assigned partner who will make you one in return.

****
1. You will receive the name of your partner, it is up to you to PM them and you will exchange your theme and colors, and addresses. As stated before, communication is of the utmost importance.

2. You will have ONE month to make one block for that person and send it to them. The blocks must be 100% prewashed cotton, 12 1/2" x 12 1/2" unfinished (12" when finally sewn into a quilt). You can make them in any fashion - pieced, appliqued, paper-pieced, embroidered, other methods - as long as you follow your swap partner's specifications to the best of your ability so their project can be unified.

3. At the end of the month all the names will be reassigned. Please send a PM to the hostess prior to the end of the month if you wish to have your name taken off the list.

4. Participants may change their theme if they wish by sending a PM to the hostess.

5. New members may join at any time but may have to wait until the next reassignment of names to receive a partner. ((However, many participants are willing to do extra swaps - so it may be possible to find an interim partner for you)).

PLEASE NOTE: We have several international swap participants, so occasionally your partner may be in another country (which means it will cost slightly more for you to send their block).

Sew Hugs
Jean
