I'd like to join if it isn't to late. I had to google charm squares to figure what they were - such a newbie I am, but I'm learning.:0)

When you say baggie, do you mean a ziplock sandwich bag or something larger? 2 charm squares per each person in a bag for each person?

Sorry for what probably seems like a dumb question.

Any size zip lock baggie that they will fit flat in will do. It is just for protection.

Julie, It's not a dumb question. Believe me, I ask lots of questions for these swaps, too. :)

Put 2 charm squares in each ziplock baggie for each person in the swap. Please make sure both charms in the baggie are different. Please put your screen name on each baggie. You may put your real name and address if you want to, but please don't feel you have to. The baggies are for the protection of the fabric and also to make it easier for me to sort them, plus I like to see who sent which charms so it makes if more fun, I think. :) Oh, please mark on your baggies if you have prewashed the fabric or not. I would recommand putting all of your smaller baggies into a gallon size ziplock bag and marking it with your real name and address before putting it in a mailing envelope just in case something happens to it while it's being mailed. That way the PO can send it back to you if the mailing envelope is damaged. Please included a return envelope with your address and postage so I can mail your new charms back to you as quickly as possible.

Most importantly, have fun!

Did you want to comment on this over in the General Discussion area? I bet we could get a couple more people signed up.

Good idea, Evie. I was hoping at the start to get 40 people siged up, or more, so maybe posting under teh GD will put us over the edge.
