Gwen--duplicates are ok with me I am not using them for a jar quilt and the pattern actually works great with duplicates so if that makes it easier please feel free to send me duplicates

Just wanted to let everyone know that the charms are all in the mail and should be arriving soon! I think that you're all going to be very happy with these charms--- very fun! :-)

I checked, double-checked and triple-checked to try to make sure that everyone got back a good mix. I also had bought extra prints, so everyone should have an extra baggie or two. The only duplicates should be in those extras, I think/hope. If you sent in 11 bags, for instance, you should be receiving 22 different charms back. I tried also, to not send back any of the same fabric that an individual had sent in-- unless it was in the "extra" bags.

Anyway, I just wanted to say a big "THANK YOU" to everyone who joined this swap! You've made this so much fun and now I've got the fabrics for a quilt I've been dreaming of for a l-o-n-g time! :-)

Hope you all have a great day!

Gwen

My charms came today!!! Oh my they are wonderful!!! My DH thinks I am nuts! They are all beautiful, you all are great "pickers" of fabric. It is amazing how few duplicates there are.
Thank you Gwen, for the cute little gift!!!! I won't tell what it is, so everyone will be surprised. Your directions are awesome...you make the jar quilt sound so simple that I know it'll be easy to make.
Thank you so much for this swap...it was worth the stress over finding the fabrics and to get this variety would have been nearly impossible without it!

Thank you! There are awesome prints! I'm so excited, I want to start cutting my snowball pieces and find some shelf!

I forgot to put in my baggies that I washed my fabric...so if you get mine, they are washed.

Thank you also for the cool pattern and the QIAD fancy!

Glad to hear that they are arriving! :-) My oldest daughter helped me make the "little extra" -- each one of those sprinkles was hand-rolled! LOL That was my first experience with that type of craft (don't want to give it away), and it was SO much fun!

Thank you Gwen and your daughter for the extra present. It fits right in with my others. You did a fantastic job!!!
