Irish mom I think I got one of your blocks for the summer swap. This is a very fun swap too. I especially like that you get to make 19 different blocks.

Newbie question- Are you sending in 5 pieces of 4 different fabrics for the total? Or sending in all 4 fabrics for each member in the swap? I don’t always think outside the box/pattern well and had not considered the possibility that all my submitted squares not be the same.

You send one F8 for each person, they can be the same for everyone or all different or any variation of that. As for making the blocks same thing you can make the same pattern for each swapper or you can make different ones for everyone.

You'll send only 1 F8 (18" X 11") for each member of your group. Each lady will add her own fabrics to yours to make you a 12 1/2" block. For a group of 20 participants, you send Janice 19 F8s. You may send different fabrics to make a total of the 19 F8s. They don't all have to be the same fabric. You need to insert a note into each baggie stating what colors you would like used or not used. You can request colors, but not a particular pattern to be used. It may be confusing at first, but once you see what others do, it's really simple. I hope this helps. Any more questions, just ask, somebody will help you. |

I'm posting a picture of my F8s and what's included with them for the newbies. I use ziplock sandwich bags from the Dollar Tree with a sticker with my board name on the outside the bag. I put 1 F8 and my request note on the inside. I use the other ladies baggies to put their finished blocks in to send back to them. They go back into the same bag that they came in. I keep my baggies and use them repeatedly as long as they don't have a hole in them anywhere.
When I send a finished block back for a lady, I put it back into her bag, neatly folded. I turn her request note over to the back and write who the block is for and who made it. I put it into the bag so that the note shows on the opposite side of the bag from the owner's board name sticker. That way Janice knows who it goes to from either side of the bag. I just thought this might be a help to some of the new ladies. Hope I didn't bore you to bad. LOL |
