I’m taking a break from hosting any fabric swaps until January 2009. I’m making some revisions and changes to how the swaps are run to keep quilt shop quality fabric in each package throughout the swap in addition to making sure the packages arrive in a timely manner to each one on the list. So check back then for new and improved ways to shop FREE fabric arriving in YOUR mailbox!!!

fat quarter envelope 1: I just love the Barbie prints Donna included in this envelope! And the frogs or toads, whichever one they are, are just too cute as well!

fat quarter envelope 2: Doesn’t that red sunflower print on the end just look bright and cheery…like it’s just itching to be stitched into something?!?!

smorgasbord envelope 1: There’s a cute cowboy print in this bunch as well as the crosshatch green and pink print on the end. I just love those shades of pink and green together! An embroidered quilt in those colors is on my to-do list!

international smorgasbord: Two ladies from Canada swapped these fabrics with me and the little blue print with chickens and hearts is so sweet!

fat quarter envelope 1: Joann received the envelope this week and it should be on its way to Diana soon.

Mollie sent this photo to show what she sent to Joann:

fat quarter envelope 2: Donna sent the envelope to Susan last week, so Susan should be getting it if you haven’t already.

solids envelope: Cleary received the envelope on Saturday and will be mailing it to Paula on July 1st.

smorgasbord envelope 1: Nina mailed the package to Mollie on Friday, so Mollie should be getting it the next few days.

Keep in mind everyone as you are swapping fabrics, that the fabric must be 100% cotton, quilt shop quality fabric! That is what everyone is expected, so please be sure you are exchanging swappable fabrics!

Have fun!!! :)

The recycled fabric swap is on it’s way! The fabric has been selected, folded into the perfect size and enclosed into envelopes and boxes ready to make its way across the country from one sewing room to the next!

Here is the most recent update according to my knowledge:

Smorgasbord envelope – Lynn, you should have received the package. If you haven’t, email me and I’ll get back in touch with DeAnn. Be sure to email me, Lynn, when you mail the package to Karen.

Solids envelope – Sandy should have the package and should be mailing it on to Cleary.

Smorgasbord box #1 – This box of fabric seems to have been lost, so I mailed out a new box today, March 17th to Sue. You, Sue, should be receiving the box in the next couple of days. Let me know when you get it.

Here’s the new box contents for box #1:

Smorgasbord box #2 – Patricia should have the box at the moment. Let me know when you send it on to Ruth.

Thanks, everyone for your participation! There’s nothing more fun than to receive a package full of fabric to shop from in the mail! It just makes your day!

Just be sure to email me when you send on the package as this makes it much easier for me to track it if it comes up missing and in answering emails to those further down the list. Appreciate it so much!! :)

Here’s where the packages are at the moment:

Here’s a few comments I have been hearing from all of you:

Thanks for doing this swap. I decided to keep 3 pieces of material and hope the next person likes what I put in to replace them. — Pat

There was a nice selection of fabrics in the package. I enjoyed being a part of the swap and hope to be able to do it again. Thank you. — Barbara

Just a short note to let you know that I received Swap Box 2 and it is full of very nice material. It came right in the middle of the huge snow storm that we had (16 plus) inches of snow. Anyway, I should be sending it out tomorrow to the next person and I will verify that to you. Happy Snow Day!!! — Christine

Hi Serena, I received the Smorgasbord Envelope today! It is cold and rainy here in MA, with snow on the way tonight, so all that pretty fabric has brightened my day. I will be mailing on to the next person by Friday or Saturday the latest. Now, to go look through my stash and choose what to swap! — June

Sounds like everyone is enjoying the swap! Be sure to drop me a note when you receive or send out your package and if you want to include photos, that’s great too! Thanks for all your emails so far! :)

This is the contents of the second box:

The scenic piece of fabric on the end is really neat! I framed a piece of it just because I liked the fabric! See how you can frame fabric and embroidery designs here.
