LindaR, I'm glad you signed up, and that I PM'd you to tell you about it. Maybe someone who knows others that haven't signed up, and are regulars might want to remind them too.
I jumped the gun and PM's Chele earlier and told her I wanted to be in. I think that was before she had posted it. I didn't want to miss out on all of the fun.

Hi everyone! I thought I had signed up for the swap, but can't find my post and haven't heard anything. Can someone let me know, please?
I also need your expert advice. I just made my first doll quilt for a swap with Gwyn, but I'm afraid it isn't good enough quality for a swap and am thinking I should start over. Would someone please give me an honest opinion. It won't hurt my feelings at all if you think I should start over, cause that's what I think, too. I have learned so many things from this little bit of fabric. 1. I never would have dreamed I could do a finished quilt in such a short period of time. 2. I think I figured out how to do mitered corners. 3. I think I turned one row of 4-patches upside down, and the color pattern I expected didn't happen. 3. Finally tried triangles after reading how to do them for a couple years. 4. Just an overall feeling of accomplishment. Oh, the dimensions are about 24 x 24.
So, you can see, even if it isn't "swap" quality, I'm a happy camper. :-)

Ok, I will send the doll quilt to Gwyn. Thank you all for your opinions. I value your input very highly. :-)
