5" CHARM PACK SWAP ( SUMMER EDITION)
Who's up for another charm swap??!! Sign up by June 23, 2012. Check out the guidlines and join in the fun!!
Guidelines
Send 6 5" x 5" fabric pieces ( charms) to each of 9 people in your group.
When you sign up you may indicate your preferences, however, it is senders choice what to send, any color, any theme.
Try to send 6 different charms to each person ( there has been some problems with to many duplicate fabrics in some packages)
Fabric can be washed or unwashed. Must be 100% cotton, not rough, thin, stiff, or see-through ( if you can see the fabric below the charm you have on top it is to thin). Please remember to give fabric you would use yourself.
Place charms in a zippered plastic bag and label whether they are washed or unwashed.
Affix a label with your name and address to the outside of the plastic bag ( The bag helps to protect the charms should the envelope rip open, the address label lets the PO know where to return them if the envelope does rip open)
Send me a message by June 23, either thriough a MQP private message or email me at mjaldrich@live.com with your name and address. Please do not post your address in the comments to this discussion. I will compose a mailing list of addresses for each group.
Charm packs must be received by the rest of your group by July 15th. Please allow plenty of time for the PO to deliver your charms. If you will be unable to meet the deadline, or have to drop out of the swap please notify me immediatly so I can try to fill your spot in the group.
There will be 10 spots per group. Additional groups will be added as needed.
To Join the Swap
Simply post a comment to this discussion with your fabric preferences and I will update the groups.
You may sign up for more than one group if you wish
Don't forget to send me your address.

Oh, I just love to get charm mail! Thank you Lynn - a true charm pack - colors and selection so pretty! I just started (WAY behind on this) Rainbow Rotini Mystery and your colors are close to the ones I picked for that quilt. Maybe I'll do a dresser scarf or pillow to go with the Rotini thingy.
and Trudyann - cute prints and the flowers are beautiful.
To everyone else - glad to hear you liked the charms and find a good use for them!

Guess I should have waited. The post man has just been and he delivered the last package from America. Thanks Mary, lovely blues and greens, now all I have to do is find the time to turn them into a quilt.

Hi all.. haven't been very diligent about posting... my charms went into the mail yesterday. They said delivery date would be Saturday. So should be there soon.
I have not gotten charms from Anna Ballenger nor Teresa Palmer yet. If you have not sent them yet, then I will not worry. If you have, they did not arrive here.
Thanks for all the fun.
