Ohhhh, my package arrived late yesterday!!! Such wonderful and beautiful fabrics!!! I have fabrics from Kentucky, Washington, Wisconsin, Tennessee, New York, Arizona, Florida, Maine, Texas, North Dakota, Rhode Island, Ohio, Illinois, and two of my fabrics (on the very bottom of the photo) are from Australia and Nova Scotia. Oh ALL the fabrics are soooo wonderful!!! Hope you all enjoy your package as much as I do.....thank you Carsey for hosting this terrific swap and all your hard work to put it together!!!!

I know there were several swappers from Australia but I think the one on the left at the bottom could be from me. So happy to see the fabric arriving.

Yes, yes....the one on the bottom left from Australia is from you, Mirabelle. It's such beautiful fabric....I love those different flowers and their names to identify them. Thank you!!!

I see one from me with the bright big flowers. I hope you can use it. Hard to find anything that said ND or anything else from like our meadowlark or the prairie rose or the ladybug (which our Kenmare grade schoold students) got made the state bug, I live 10 miles from Kenmare, ND in the NW part of the state. I am waiting patiently for mine. I have been so busy with work that I haven't really been doing much sewing.

Yes, amyjo.....that bright orange, yellow and blue on white floral fabric is yours!!! Gee, this is just as much fun as opening the package was....to see and hear from people that recognize their fat quarters. I LOVE it!!! Yes, I do love the fabric you sent, amyjo.....I love brights and it's definitely part of the swap and will be included in my memory quilt.

Hey Swappers! Let's send a thank-you block to Carsey.
 
We all know how hard Carsey has worked on this project.

Let's send her a signature block from our swap (ooooh....have to cut into one) for an International Fabric swap thank-you quilt.

Great idea!!! I hope everyone gets on board. What size should we make them?

That is a great idea. I agree with you that she deserves it. What size, pattern, etc.
