    For those of us that is participating in the 1.5" swap that Missi is doing, Are any of you going to make anything with them?
    I personally am not as they are just too small. But I have enjoyed participating and can't wait to receive my swap. I did 15 sets and have about 12 more sets now for the next swap. I am seriously considering PIF with them as I will never do anything with them..one good thing out of this swap is I know that I CAN cut 1.5" squares. LOL

    I haven't signed up for this one, but have done a couple of these swaps in the past and YES I can't wait till I have enough to play with. I probably only have around 1500-2000 though and need quite a bit more before I can make anything substantial with them. I'm also saving all the HST's that are 1.5".

    Don't be afraid to work with, really not that bad at all. Did a block not too long ago with 64 pieces to it and it came out great! Wish I had a pic of it, but computer got dropped and HD died. :cry:

    This was my first swap, can't wait to get my swap squares back. I havn't decided what to do yet, I may just randomly sew them all together. Or I may do something with a light and dark pattern . So many possibilities!

    Edyta Sitar has the neatest designs for 1.5 inCh strips. I think her website is laundrybasketquilts.com. I am doing the houses with appliqué. It is adorable. Next I am doing the spools with my leftovers. If any wants to sell some please PM me.
