    This is a swap for funky dogs. By funky, we mean that it can be a silly pattern, a regular pattern made up in unexpected colors, a great dog fabric fussy cut......anything that is fun will work for this swap. We want to end up with some really fun and whimsical quilts! The intent is to have a great time!

    The swap is open to all experience levels. Please take the time to read the “General rules for swaps” http://www.quiltingboard.com/t-20154-1.htm

    Blocks can be any size that is divisible by 3" (plus seam allowances). They can be square, or rectangular. They may be pieced, paper pieced, appliquéd, painted, embellished…anything goes! Please keep in mind that all appliquéd blocks MUST have the pieces sewn down in some manner and that “plain” fabric blocks (just cut up squares), while appreciated to share with other swappers, WILL NOT count as “swap” blocks.

    Blocks will be swapped in sets of 6. 1 set = 6 blocks. You may make as many sets as you would like to receive back. Note: limit of 2 sets of 3” blocks per swapper.

    **Please note that we will be swapping out all 6 blocks, and you will not be getting one of your own back. If you'd like one of your blocks you will need to make an extra.

    Blocks should be mailed to me in a ziploc baggie inside an envelope, with your name and board name on each individual block. You need to include a Flat Rate envelope with postage on it for me to send your return blocks. The return blocks probably will be be different sizes than ones you sent in and postage is difficult to figure out, therefore, the Flat Rate envelopes work very well. If you would like Delivery confirmation, please include the cost to cover that as well.

    Sign-up deadline is August 1, 2011. Please only sign up when your blocks are done and ready to mail. Mail blocks to me no later than August 15, 2011. Please PM me for my address. Blocks will then be swapped and mailed out by August 31, 2011. International swappers are welcome, please keep in mind the difference in mailing times.
