Wow! Check out the last link on Carsey's initial message (top of page 1) to see all the participants we have. It's truly international!

Thanks to everyone who has signed up. It should be a great exchange!

This may be a silly question but here in the U.S. most of the fabric is not really made here... so... can we use that? Also, much of the fabric I buy (LQS designer) is available all over.. isn't it? I would like to participate but don't know what I would buy that others can't get...??

Frankly, you can get things in your area that I can't get in mine, and we are both in the US. I find the store owners have their own ideas of what is good for quilts. And of the many stores in my area, I have not found any that duplicate their collections! The southwest designs are usually not found outside that region. And that's only one example. So send what is available to you. It will most likely not be what the rest of us send.

And, yes, most of us are aware the fabric available is not made in the US, for the most part.

This sounds like so much fun and a neat way not only to add to your collection but also to meet others from around the world. Count me in. Dar
