Fabric needs to be of good quality, if I can hold it to the light, look through it and see which child is raiding the cookie jar - your fabric is too thin for this swap.

10 1/2 inch block swap using the Angel Baby pattern.

 

These may be machine or hand appliquéd.  Background fabrics should be off white, cream or tan in color.

 

Faces must be left Blank

 

No more than 5 blocks exactly the same.

No more than 20 blocks per swapper

 

Edges need to be securely stitched down. No open or raveled edge appliqué for this swap please.

 

Self addressed stamped priority mailer must accompany your blocks in order to be returned to you.

 

Blocks due February 10, 2009 (but welcome early)

Knee Deep in Bull Frogs!......a no sew swap!

 

This is a tad different. We will be swapping Fused but Un-sewn blocks.

12 1/2 inch blocks using off white, cream or tan for the background fabric. Using the pattern provided, you will cut and fuse your blocks with a light weight fusible such as Heat Bond Lite. Make very sure you do not use the heavy weight bonding materials, as you will be finishing off the blocks you receive back. So, why a No-Sew swap? This allows us to gather many blocks in different fabrics, and still have a consistent stitching on all of them :)

 

No more than 5 blocks exactly the same.

No more than 20 blocks per swapper

Tattered Garden 10 1/2 inch block swap

 

For this swap we will be doing Raw Edge appliqué. Using a straight stitch on your machine, you will sew 1/4 inch in from the edge of the flowers. If you are familiar with Bulls Eye quilts this is the same method. The raw edges will ravel on washing and give your quilt a unique look.

 

Background fabrics should be off white, cream or tan in color.

 

No more than 5 blocks exactly the same.

No more than 20 blocks per swapper

 

Self addressed stamped priority mailer must accompany your blocks in order to be returned to you.
