So I am pondering a fabric swap with all the crafty blog readers out there. Something along the lines of maybe 5x5 inch charms or even coins. A little way for us all to mix up our stash a little an have the chance to make something beautiful with it.
I am thinking maybe a coin quilt challange. Send 40 coins in all different scraps from your "designer" stash, then mix them up and send them back. When we get them create a flicker group showing off what we make with them.
What do you all think? Would there be any interest in this? It would be monitered well so that only designer fabrics can be used.
(Anything not of quality I will send back to the person who sent them make sense) sorry I am such a fabric snob :)
Who would like to take part??? I am thinking end of august early September they will be recieved by, that way when the kids go back to school we can all have a fun peacful project.
I know you all have some great idea's to, so what do you think??
Just to clarify the coins would be about 2.5 x 5 inches in an array of different prints. Some doubles are ok but no solids.
thank for shering

Sounds like this could be a fun one.
ReplyDeletesounds good, would all 40 have to be different?
ReplyDeletesounds like fun!
ReplyDeleteHey Terri, this sounds like fun! But I'm not quite sure I know what you mean by 'coins' ... yo-yos perhaps? And I'd be interested to know if all pieces submitted would need to be different, or could they all be from the same fabric.
ReplyDeleteI think you'll have plenty of interest in this! Good timing too with school starting and all.

I would be interested in this as well. I too am a fabric snob - so no worries.
ReplyDeleteWhatever you decide is fine, I like the idea of all differnt, but now a dumb question, I have no idea what a coin size is!! Either way, count me it, amd I would be happy to make a buton for you if you need one.
ReplyDeleteIt would be fun if you managed to get 40 participants and we could each send forty cuts of the same fabric. That way each would have the same fabrics to create something spectacular.
ReplyDeleteI think it's a great idea. As far as the type of fabrics, you may have to have a list of fabric designers you want included.
ReplyDeleteI'm definitely interested! I am always collecting designer fabrics and would love to see what other people have as well! Sign me up!
ReplyDeleteWould you send international (Australia?) or US only??
ReplyDeleteTerri, please include me in your swap. I think this sounds like fun. I have no blog...would that disqualify me??

I love this idea! More details?
ReplyDeleteI would also be interested if Australia is included. I am a fabric snob too, so no problem about the designer fabrics. Would love some more information!
ReplyDeleteI'm in Australia also and am interested if we are included down under.
ReplyDeleteI think this would be FUN! I'd love to participate if you decide to go for it!
ReplyDeleteAdd another aussie to the list! this sounds like great fun... but i am also blogless.
ReplyDeleteI would certainly be interested in this also. Like others, I'm not sure what you mean by coins and have no blog.
