I missed out on most of this year. What were some of the swaps before July? (I wouldn't want to suggest anything that was done recently). I'd love to do a charm swap some month. I'm not sure how it would work, though. Jessica photos.yahoo.com/greendragondesigns

Jessica don't worry about repeating any, we have done a few twice already because we all like them so much, like these Modas that we are doing right now

I still love Fossil Ferns... and color-themes are good, methinks. Like REDS for February or BLUE for winter (January) or GREEN for March... |

Hi everyone, here are the guidelines for the fat q swap. this is a decentralized swap, meaning that i send you the list of addresses and then you send to everyone on the list the fat q in the theme for that month. material is 100% cotton and approx 18 X 22 with mail date no later than the last week of the month. i post the next months theme about a week before in a new "thread" and that is where the ladies let me know if they are involved that month or at my e-mail addy. you must let me know every month via this way. hope this helps, and let me know if i need to add to it carman |
