FILL THE VESSEL have all been received. swap complete.
2 weeks to sign up. Now through January 26th
8 weeks to make your blocks and send them to me. Now through March 24th
I will mail the blocks back to you Monday March 30th or sooner.
Mail blocks to me by March 24th using priority mail and save your receipt, it will have your tracking number on it. Blocks must be in my possession by March 29th so I can sort on that Sunday and mail back to you Monday March 30th. If I don’t have tracking from you by March 24th I will not wait for your blocks to arrive.
Postage $6, no stamps, no checks, pre-paid labels are fine, international will be worked out individually. I have Flat Rate envelopes to send your blocks back to you so please don't send return envelopes.
Please attach a label to each block with your forum name, real name, city and state. Keep the blocks flat, no individual baggies. Put your blocks in a large zip lock bag with your address on it before sending it to me.
THE FUN PART.
Make 20 blocks each 12 ½ unfinished. Please don’t square up your blocks.
Use pre washed 100% cotton. No muslin, No Glitter, No machine embroidery.
Background fabric WOW
Make a vessel and add at least three flowers.
I will leave the type of flowers, vessel and the method of sewing up to you.
Use your imagination. A vessel can be a vase, a wagon, a boot, an upside down umbrella, a hanging pot, a window box, or whatever you choose.
Any applique must be sewn down
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.
THE FINE PRINT.

Tina, Vinae and I run a pretty tight swap... we can "what if" till the cows come home but in the end it's an obligation and it needs to be taken seriously...if you are a person who can't send on time or if you think my rules are to strict please don't sign up for one of my swaps...
