Christmas blocks swap!

Oh, I'm so excited about this one! I've already started picking up fabrics on sale....

So who wants in on a Christmas swap so that we can all have glorious Christmas quilts NEXT YEAR? HOORAY!!

I think for this swap we will have plenty of people who want to participate. So I'll go ahead and post details------

The mailing date will be December 8. Christmas fabric is on sale lots of places now, and this way if you want to participate in both the Christmas swap and the fall one, you can economize on postage.

You'll send 16 5.5" squares of 4 different Christmas prints to me with a self-addressed, stamped envelope. (that's 64 square total) Each print will take slightly less than a third of a yard.

Please make sure all your fabric is 100% cotton, quilting quality Christmas prints with NO licensed characters (scooby doo, spongebob, etc.)

International participants are welcome, but please try to mail a little earlier than December 8 if you're shipping internationally.

In return you will receive 64 5.5" squares, hopefully with no repeats.

The swap is open to the first 15 people to sign up. To sign up, please comment on this post. If you want to sign up for the fall swap as well, comment on that post too.

Please, please please leave your e-mail address or comment and then send me an e-mail. It's important that I have a way to contact you.
