lET'S TRY THIS AGAIN. I understand my E-mail address was entered wrong in May.
Is anyone out there interested in a 2 inch strip swap. It would need at least 18 faithful traders.
1. I will designate the color each month.
2. You would buy one yard plus a little for shrinkage. The type of fabric is up to you. But make sure you send the same quality you would like to receive.
3. Wash and press the fabric. Then cut into 2 inch strips across the width.
4. Send 18 strips to me with a stamped self addressed return envelope.
5. I will sort and return to you 18 strips for each set sent. Hopefully the strips will all be different.
When we have 18 or more signed up I will contact everyone.
Is there already a swap out there like this?

I have about 30 civil war fabrics of quilt shop quality that I would like to exchange for similar pieces of cw fabrics to get more variety for my sampler. I purchased mostly 1/3 yard pieces so I can trade any size squares up to about 12 inches. All fabrics are washed and ironed, non smoking household. If you are interested in exchanging some squares please contact me.
