Once Carsey said she began mailing out the fat quarters, I wasn't banking on getting mine any time soon so it was such a surprise. I think my DH thought I was nuts when he brought the package in and I looked at the return address and yelled...."YES!!!!" LOL All are really super nice.....even the so called U.S. stuff that most of us can obtain or find.....hard to decide which is a favorite. That Seattle one looks so great and fun, the one with all the Lighthouses and that fabric from Nova Scotia, all the flowers on the one from Australia....oh I can't choose which is the prettiest. I am thinking how nice some would have made a needle book or needle case....but on second thought...whether the fat quarter colors match or not.....I should just sew them all together as a memory quilt of the International Fabric Swap of 2012. That would be the best....to have such a fond memory.

That's almost what I'm thinking too....or at least a Big Block-tye quilt so I can showcase all the great fabrics I know I'll receive. I also want to incorporate the labels somehow on each different fabric. Guess I'll just have to wait and see.....although waiting is getting harder by the day.
