    I am thinking... if everyone was able to take a picture and email it to me, I'd be happy to make a "reference chart" for the participants as a whole - post the name with the fabric(s) so that if all else fails, you can always head back to the internet and figure out what's what and who's who.

    I like that idea, Kelly. It hasn't personally been an issue, but it's reassuring to have a reference when in doubt. Thanks! Now, I have to pick a fabric . Hmmmm, way too many choices!

    Ah ha! Great minds and all that. I planned to take pix as the fabric came in for my own use, just in case!

Just hope I see the outcome when its posted.
    Tracking out of the USA slows down the process of getting the package. They sort of discourage it unless you don't care when it gets to it's destination. I send to Australia and the way they explained it was that some of the places the package may stop at to be process, can have it slip through without the tracking. Now this is just one post office telling me this so maybe it really is different. I just send my packages with a prayer and they get there. So do check with your post office. I also remember sending blocks from Australia and they looked confused when I asked for tracking so I didn't continue the conversation. LOL.

    why not take a picture and print it on the added note that goes with the F8's? That way everyone is sure to know which person and fabric they are working with. Just saying it would be easy to do.

    It seems that at least a couple of people would like to have pix of fabric to use as a reference. It's what I planned to do for myself anyway. Anyone who wishes to EMAIL ([email protected]) me a pic of their fabric can do so. I can easily add it to the Xcel spreadsheet I plan to send to everyone. I ask that if you do that, PLEASE send me a small pic, not a 5 Megabyte file! If everyone who sends a pic can reduce their own, it will save me a lot of time.

    Tomorrow I'll have an email ready for all those who've signed up. Please review it and respond by email.

    I just signed up. Personally, I like the change to a centralized swap. It will save me a lot in postage. In Canada we can get tracking, but I don't really know how it works for shipments to the States.
