HALLOWEEN SWAP! CLOSED!
Posted: Fri Jul 23, 2021 2:03 pm
Hi, Everyone!
Halloween is just around the corner - in quilting speak, anyway. Can you believe it's been 7 years since our last Halloween swap? Tina checked! I was thinking it had only been 3. Time flies! Anyway, we ARE having a swap and I'm opening up sign-ups now through Aug 15th. I know it's coming hard on the heels of the Christmas swap, but time is flying by. I'm giving extra time to sign up because I know many of you want to see how the Christmas swap goes. Blocks will be 12-1/2", quilter's choice, traditional Halloweeny colors of black, purple, orange, lime green, golds, yellows, etc. They can be pieced or applique. No machine embroidery. Sign-ups will close Aug. 15th and blocks will need to be to me by October 7th. I will try to do as quick a turnaround as I can and get them back to you ASAP. I have return envelopes.
The usual swap rules apply and by now you all know them :
*PLEASE remember, once you sign up, you are committed.
*PLEASE make sure your blocks are at least 12-1/2" square. No one wants undersized blocks.
*PLEASE do not square them up. They can ravel some during transit.
*PLEASE include $8.55 for return postage. Cash or checks are OK.
*PLEASE put your name somewhere on each block. I don't care where.
*PLEASE keep in touch, weekly. Through this thread is best, but texts and e-mails are also OK. PM me if you need my info. Don't make me hunt you down. It makes me cranky.
When you decide on your block, let me know. Remember, this is HALLOWEEN, not simply fall, so your chosen block should reflect the Halloween spirit. We would like a picture of your block when you have a sample ready to share. If you can't post photos, I can do it for you, if you text me your photo.
Now let's get our spooky side on!
