Hi antiguegirl68 .... I make my own FQs so mine are a little larger. Most fabrics these days are less than 44" wide, so I always add an inch or so to the 18" side to make up for that ... most of mine are 19 - 20" x 20". Sometimes I add extra fabric just because I have it and I think the recepient would like it. hope that answers your question ....
|
Sent my packages out today. Hope they arrive soon.
|
Thank you, yes that helps and I am going to make my own and mine are going to be larger also. Hopefully my recepient will like them.

Brenda,
Why didn't I get notice of someone to mail mine to? I feel very left out. |
Mine are on a plane or in a little white truck somewhere whizzing their way to their new owners. I once again am an epic failure at sending fancy folded little rabbit shaped FQ but hopefully the selection will be nice enough there will be a few 'good' new additions for their new owners. I can't wait to hear they have arrived!
|
Well, Brat, I didn't get them yet. I'll let you know if they're new additions.

SOS, I need some quick help ladies....do any of you have the fabric with the chocolates on it? The one with all the pieces of candy. I just need a tiny piece for fussy cutting that would give me about 4 or 5 pieces. I need it for a very special Boom 9 block and no one has it around here. If you could part with a tiny bit of it I will gladly send you the money for fabric and postage.

[ATTACH=CONFIG]394186[/ATTACH] |
now those are some fun fabrics. I think you hit the nail o n the head with Jaba Teresa! and the ones you received are so perfect I could use those up right away and well then there was the St. Patricks day group .. swoon.. and here in the last group of pictures there is a fabric looks sorta like a sweater knit? am I seeing that right? I looked and said she sent something she made no its fabric, no she made that no its.. that is cool.
I love this swap .. .. and cant wait to see the rest as they come rolling in. Vanogay this time.. its not you :( but the upside is purple was not the highlight of my send outs. I have so little of it unfortunately that I couldnt really share much. that or I am a hog and keeping it all to myself. you decide. |

Thanks for the lovely St. Pat fat quarters Lisa - Lstew2212.
[ATTACH=CONFIG]394654[/ATTACH] |
Lisa sent me the same fabrics. They are just wonderful! perfect for my FQ Swap quilt. I will post pictures soon of blocks made from this month's fabrics.
This month has been absolutely fabulous ... the variety of fabrics, all so neat! The swapping seems to have gone so smoothly this month, or at least I hope so. Great swap partners all around! Thanks Brenda for making it so easy! |
