Okay, I went through my scraps, and pulled out enough to fill 3 boxes.

Two of the boxes contain all scraps (lots of strips), and one box contains about 2/3 scraps and the rest is yardage. I saw everything from 30's repro fabrics to batiks to you-name-it! I tried to leave out anything smaller than a couple of inches square or strips less than 1" wide (nearly all are 1-1/2" or more).

So ... if there are more people who want to swap scraps, I can do up to 3 boxes (paulswalia is already my partner for one of them). They're packed up and ready to ship. BOY, are they full, and they're all the larger medium boxes!

Here's a quilt I made with my scrap strips awhile back. I'd been saving them to make another one, but I just don't have time at the moment. By the time I do get to it, I'm sure my scrap pile will be huge again. But this can give a general idea of the types of scraps I'm sending. Pretty much everything but the kitchen sink!

Great scrappy quilt! I might be joining this swap but need time to go through the stash first.

Oh Boy, Moonrise.......I'm really ready now - looks like the sky's the limit!!! I've been tossing things in the box almost every day when I find something that I wonder "what was I thinking?" about.

Got my box ready. Variety of fabric. At least 1/2 yd. to 1 yd. I didn't include any holiday fabric, nor scraps. Prefer receiving no holiday or scraps. Put in a very small amount of notions. I'm a non smoker and have no pets. Can't wait to find out who my partner is.
