Wow! I love this!! debe: There is no limit as to how many you can send. You get back as many as you send in. (I hope that helps)

I thought I saw the suggestion of a signature block with every FQ. That was the premise of another swap last year - signature blocks. IMHO, it might be a little daunting to add this to the swap.

Hi: Is this what you are talking about?? It doesn't have to be a signature block. It could just be a piece of fabric signed.

"What would everyone think about adding a signature block with your FQ's. One for each of your FQ's. That way who ever gets your fabric would have a signature block to go with it. I would LOVE to include the signature blocks with my quilt that I will be making from the international fabrics. I would feel like each person is a part of my quilt. The signature blocks could be 6x6. For those that don't want to make a signature block could just include a signed piece of fabric. We could include our:

Board name: Carsey
Real Name: (If we want to)
Where we live: (T, Fl. USA)

Let me know what you think.

Blessings!

ah... I see. If that is included, would we need to label each FQ with a paper label as well?

No, I don't think so. It would be one block for each FQ. If you send in 4 FQ's, 1 FQ goes to 4 different people. So you would need to send in 4 FQ's. 1 for each FQ. Hows that??? Well, what do you think??

Blessings!

Can we make it optional for those who may not have the time, skill or extra funds?

Could you include a simple tutorial showing what you're looking for?

Thanks.
