Looks like everyone is having as much finding FQs as it will be to receive them!

That way if we have fabrics made in our countries we can swap them. If we don't have fabrics made in our countries, we can swap the fabrics that we have in our areas!! Either way, it will be fabrics from around the world!!!! Let me know what you think!! I think we would be able to get more international swapper this way too! I will wait to hear from you all until Wednesday and then I will decide whether or not to change it on the activity page.

Blessings!

Do they still make it in USA...? or is it outsourced like everyone else? I shop in RI and would be interested in where I could find it.
