You deserve all the goodies for putting up with us :wink: LOL
I am surprised when they said Monday it usually means Tuesday/ Wednesday :roll:

And I have already started collecting my black/whites :thumbup:

I am new to this fabric collecting but I wondered if the same thing would happen with orange?

From what Im told from other swappers is that in my swaps they have learned to go beyond their comfort level of colors.. Members who never knew 1930's repros existed fell in love with them during that swap.. Same with Civil War repros. ... I love my swaps, I love variety, and I love scrappy.. To me this is a win win situation, you could get back what you never would of chosen but see it in a whole new light and love it.. Or in some occasions you could hate it, therefore you know you never need to buy that ever.. lol..

I can hardly wait to do the black/whites! I picked mine up from Marshalls and I think it is their line and I'm figuring it will be a bit unique for most :)...at least part of mine, a couple are standard issue....lol

I will be picking up the black and white fabrics this Friday, and then over the weekend start cutting. This is so much fun and I am looking forward to seeing all the different fabrics I get back. I love fabric swaps.

I still have to send mine. Out in the morning, I promise. I'm sorry to be the hold up. School just started though and this is a new school for my girls. It is a whole different world compared to what they are used to. Then we are trying to move also. It is a real mess. Everything has just been pushed to the side. I hope we can get done soon. I will be more prompt in the future. :oops: :oops:
