November 23 to January 24 Table Runner Swap
Hi Everyone,
I thought I had posted a table runner swap - but when looking for the thread it appears that I didn't.... I just thought I had!
Okay, so I am posting a new thread and new swap. Sign ups will run from now until the end of January 2024.
All the usual rules listed below.... and hopefully I will get it right this time.
Welcome to the ongoing Table Runner Swap. This swap will run from 1st November 2023 to the 31st January 2024.
You have until the 31st January 2024 to make a table runner - the theme this time is MAKERS CHOICE.
The table runner should be a minimum of 12” x 30”.
You can use any technique/any style.
All fabrics used should be 100% cotton.
The runner must have wadding and be quilted.
Sign Up list
There is no deadline so you can sign up at any time during the 3 months as this will be just an intention to participate. When you have made and are ready to mail your runner you can then sign up to the “ready to mail” list which is binding commitment.
But please remember that the only lists that counts is the Ready to Mail lists posted at the end of January 2024..
Ready to Mail list
The first Ready to Mail lists will be posted around 24th January 2024 (and will continually be updated) if you are not on this list and think you should be, please contact me asap and let me know - if you are not on the list you will not get an person/address to send to. The final list will be posted on the 31st January 2024.
Midnight on the 31st January 2024 is the deadline to get on the “Ready to Mail” list. If you want to take part, I will need the following:-
Real name
Your address
Whether you are willing to send international or not (Please consider this as it enables everybody to take part)
Allergy info
Pet and smoking information
Email address
As long as you have a table runner ready to mail you can join the ready to mail list by letting me know any time before the deadline.
Addresses Sent Out:
I will send out the name and address of the person you should send to on the 1st or 2nd February 2024. You will have 7 days to get your table runner in the mail - No Longer. If you are unable to keep this commitment - please do not sign up.
This is not a partner swap. You will send your table runner to the quilter who's address you get. You will receive from a different quilter than the one you send to.
Please remember that there are quilters of all abilities on this board and you should appreciate the table runner you receive as your sender will have worked hard to make it for you.
You are welcome to send some goodies in your package if you would care to, but please don't expect anything other than the table runner.
Please Note.... You must let me know when you mail and when you receive. Also, please PM the person that sends to you when you receive to say thank you and to let them know that the table runner that they have sent you has arrived - it is only polite to do so! And please remember that there are still delays with the postal services around the world so your runner may take some time to get to you!
So come and join our fun.
Hugs
Caroline

Hello Caroline! Thank you for facilitating this swap. It is so fun and I love participating. I did miss it this past year and am happy that you set up this thread. I hope we get some new participants since this is such an awesome swap. This is a shout out to all who are reading this but have not joined in yet. The old saying "the more the merrier" applies here

I had to search for this new thread. I wonder if we should add a note to the last thread directing anyone interested to come here? Not sure why I didn't get a notice but that's OK. Just a thought!
Happy holidays to everyone!
