This was a swap started by astitchintime, otherwise known as the "ugly fat quarters" swap. You know, fabric you bought and now you ask yourself, "Was I in my right mind when I bought this"?

I think some ladies wanted to do a Recycled Stash Swap. Someone starts out by collecting a certain amount of fabric in yards, half yard and fat quarter cuts. It is sent out in the mail and as each person gets it you take what you like and then replace it with the same amount as what you took. Then you send it on to the next person on the list. Becky had started one about 3 months ago and when it made its way back to her she had a different set of fabrics than what she had sent out. I participated in that one and it was lots of fun.

I wouldn't mind putting one together but it would have to wait until around september to get started.
