polaroid swap idea

WHAT IF...instead of sewing blocks for each other we simply swap 2 1/2 inch by 2 1/2 inch fussy cuts?  Then we can put our fussy cuts in a regular envelope and do all the sewing ourselves at our leisure.  It would be so easy we could send each other a lot more fussy cuts which is what I'm wanting anyway.  Eight of us are signed up- super exciting!  If you have an opinion one way or the other, please share. :)  If you'd like to do it this way please indicate how many you'd like to swap.

  3. Are we swapping with just one person or sending swatches to everyone?

  4. I think it would be fun to swap with everyone.
    I went downtown to a quilt shop this morning and went a little crazy. I can easily send everyone 20 swatches of completely different fabrics. I was able to stuff a ziplock bag full of scraps for $5 then I splurged on a few other fabrics (it's rare for me to buy fabric at $11.99 per yard- yikes!) and that was after my trip to JoAnns! This swap will be fun. :) Nobody has to send me that many but I figure I may as well send that many out to each person. Not sure what I'd do with these little remnants of chopped up fabric.

  5. I got a package in the mail today! I am so excited! It is the middle of the night and I am not sleeping (boo) and I am tempted to go upstairs to find me some fussy cuts!
