I'll give it a shot. This will be my first charm swap. So let me see if I got this right, 40 8" charms total, two per bag, fall colors, with leaves on them?

Ok, I think I'm confused. Do you want just 8" squares of different leaf fabrics? Or am I to make 8" blocks using different leaf fabrics in some sort of leaf design?

Sorry, I'm a newbie and want to do this right

Mom2boys - No sewing involved. This is a "charms" swap, which means it is squares of fabric (sizes vary with hostess' preferences). This one is just 8 inch squares of leafy fabrics.

You will receive in exchange a variety of other 8 inch squares of the same. Then you can make what you wish from them. This type of swap is good for easing into the way swaps work.

Some patterns are being suggested by participants... keep checking the posts.

Thanks for asking any question that comes to mind.

Cut mine last night. May be able to get them package up over the weekend. Still gotta do the final shopping for DGS to start school on Wed. Need the shoes, backpack, binder, supplies etc. One of my LQS is going out of business so going by there today to see what may be left. Next Sat is their final business day.
