To join you must be a posting member of this forum for at least three months and be familiar with the way Vinae and Chriss and I run our swaps….

If you sign up and fail to follow through on this swap you won’t be able to sign up for the next swap you ask to join. If after sitting out a swap you fail to follow through again you won’t be able to sign up for any swap that I host. If you take a spot in this swap it is a commitment and must be met.

If you send incomplete blocks or your blocks are not the required size and of the required fabric they will be returned to you using your postage.

Be sure to use priority mail and keep your postal receipt. It will have your tracking number on it. In the event your blocks don’t show up and you don’t have this number you won’t be able to sign up for our next swap. If you do have this number we will be able to track your package it will be located and included.

Communication and follow through are key. If you have any questions please ask prior to taking a spot in this swap. If you have any problems or concerns, PM me and we can take care of it in private so it doesn’t cause problems on the forum. If you join you must comment in the swap thread once a week...especially during the last month of the swap...


Be sure to check in often to see how things are moving along…

I will be getting with Chriss and Vinae to share info, if these requirements seem too rigid please don’t sign up.

Tina, sign me up for hearts. It will be the heart block pattern that I have made before for the red and white swap. I may not be able to sew on these till after Christmas though, I have 3 quilts to make for Christmas presents. But I will get them done and mail on time. Thanks, Vinae

I am going to consider it carefully before I commit myself. (I think I should be committed anyway for some of the other dumb stuff I do.)

Diana

Are we limited to green, white or white on white, or can we use some yellows too?
