Thank you on both points here, Nancy in Louisiana...keeping everyone straightened out on how to insure that your fabric comes back to you....with interest!...and for coming up with that fantastic name! Did I mention that I loved that name?
LOL

I LOVE THIS NAME- BOOMERANG SWAP! What a perfect name for us! I'm trying to decide between fabrics right now, which is sooooo much fun!

How much yardage do we need to send 36 F8? including shrinkage...

I would say with shrinkage 4.75-5 yards should be more than plenty.

I am so excited to start this swap!!

Yup I have noted you want in-I have compiled a list of all those who have posted interest and on official signup day I will post that list and ask everyone to confirm (and also ask more people to join us :-) )

I have my fabric picked out; it's kinda a mountain, tree, cabin theme so should be fun to work with. Just gotta cut it up for each person.

April,
I think i'm going to have to pass. I just don't think I should commit to 36 blocks in 3 motnhs with working full time and my other obligations. I hope you will do this again come summer as then it won't be a problem for me.

This swap sounds like soooo much fun......it would be my first online swap.

Just wondering if it is an issue that I live outside the US.......is it still okay to join?
