Description:

Sorry that this is USA only, I am on a tight budget and things are so pricey here. Anyone is welcome to start their own Fabric Swap.

I have done many fabric swaps before, usually of a cat theme because I am addicted to cats. Everyone who joins the swap must write a fabric wish list in the COMMENTS section of this swap. Write which patterns or colors you want to receive.

You will send a 6x9 bubble envelope stuffed with as much fabric as you can fit into the envelope. The only catch is that the fabric pieces you stuff must be at least the size of a FQ. This way we don't have people getting tiny scraps of fabric (unless of course your partner requests it!). TWO of the FQ of fabric must be new and they should be from your partner's wish list. The rest of the fabrics can be from your stash (or you can purchase if you want to send more of what your partner likes, it's up to you). You MUST look in the COMMENTS to see what your partner has listed. Visit their profile for something you can send as a little extra for hearts.

Let's have fun with this swap! You must have at least a 4.7 to join. I will ban anyone after the close who does not have this rating. I will also angel this swap should something happen. You have quite awhile before the sign up date closes, and then a month after to find the perfect fabrics.

Please PM me with questions, it is the best way to reach me.

Although I do love cat fabric, right now I am collecting wildlife scenes and pink/burgundy/red fabrics (can be patterned). I would also love paisley print (not too tacky). Thanks!

I LOVE polka dots, cupcakes, florals (small and large) cute japanese, Michael Miller is a favorite. I also love 30's feedsack reproductions. I am a HUGE fan of thrifted pillow cases (small florals are favorites) and sheets(small or large florals are great). I use 100% cotton, linen and wool felt (I LOVE thrifted wool sweaters reds, brights yellows and purples)

My favorite fabric colors are: light to leaf green, agua, red, black on black, orange :)

I love all kinds of fabric as long as they are 100% cotton. I am absolutely gaga for Japanese imported fabric, or fabrics with birds or owls. I don't really have any batiks, but am learning to really appreciate them. Also a big fan of pin up girls, Michael Miller, Alexander Henry, Amy Butler, Anna Maria Horner and Heather Bailey. Solids are always good. Hopefully I put enough choices out there. I just love fabric!

MineFULL 08/26/2008 #

I love Amy Butler, Alexander Henry, Heather Baily, Anna Marie Horner, Asian inspired, Kawaii, vintage and repro, Joel Dewberry, Kaffe Fassett, Tina Givens, Japanese imports. I could go on, but hopefully that paints a picture for you! :D

tomosia 08/27/2008 #

I love all types of fabrics but I really like tone on tone fabrics with cream/tan being my favorite right now, but I like all colors. I also love black and white, especially zebra print. I like batiks, paisley and dots as well as Micheal Miller, Tula Pink, Amy Butler, Heather Bailey, and K&Company.

nikirniemeier 08/27/2008 #

I love all types of fabric. (Prefer cotton) I love pin up girls fabrics, cherries, cupcakes, owls, cute polka dots, Kawaii, Elvis, Zebra print, and loooove any of the color & color combos. Pink, Pink & Black, Pink and Brown, Red & Black, Pink & Orange, Black and Cream, Black and White. I like whites with soft accent colors (prefer silver .. but like darker white, grey & light gold tones) I also like Micheal Miller, Amy Butler & Tula Pink. My current search is to find fabric that has Marilyn Monroe, Audrey Hepburn, James Dean, or Bettie Page on it! (which has been a very difficult search)

I love Kaffe Fassett stuff and right now I'm working on a quilt using paper piecing and I'm using colors of the visible spectrum (roy g. biv - remember that?) So, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet- esp. indigo!!!. I love hand dyed and batiks. I also need some fabric for another quilt. It's called "snowberry" - not familiar with the brand as I've only been quilting for 2-3 months, but it is "shiny".

kgeslab 08/27/2008 #

Oh, and I'm into 100% cotton as well.

Terri904 08/28/2008 #

I love Tina Givens, Joel Dewberry, Amy Butler fabrics There are others listed in my profile. I love anything with birds and/or bird houses, bird nests. I'm gathering Fat Quarters in rich shades of blue for a couple of quilted throws. I love florals, too and soft vintage looks. I also like black & white fabrics, and turquoise. I prefer cotton.

waffles28182 09/22/2008 #
