Crazy Quilt Cotton Sports Theme Swap
Swap Hostess: ILuv2Kwilt
Cotton Sports Theme Swap
GUIDELINES:
Sign up by emailing me by May 5, 1998.
Mail each envelope by May 15. Make a note and mail them out by the 10th.
Packages will be mailed back by May 25, 1998
You may send up to 15 baggies plus 1 for the hostess. Each baggie must have a slip of paper that has your name, address, and email address. Place them in one LARGE baggie with my name and address on the outside (just in case your package gets opened).
POSTAGE: Use 2 Priority Mail Tyvek envelopes from the post office. Put the same amount of return postage in stamps ONLY on the other envelope and address it to yourself and place it inside the other envelope along with your baggies.
BAGGY CONTENTS: Each baggie should have the equivalent of a 12 x 12 inch of fabric and 3 different embellishments.
1. Material: Equal to one 12 inch square. This can be two 6 by 12 inch pieces, or four 6 inch pieces, or one 12 inch piece.
Here's some ideas for the sports theme:
Golfing - Sailing - Fishing - Tennis - Bicycling - Hockey - Skiing - Sleighriding - Surfing - any water sports - sports equipment - kids/people playing sports - not to mention football, basketball, and baseball - any other type of sport you can think of.
But No NFL, NBA, or NHL or the like please!
2. Embellishments:
Threads: 1 yard of thread or yarn. No DMC floss.
Beads: 2-12 depending on their size. No SEED Beads
Motifs: Machine embroidery, silk ribbon embroidery, crochet, tatting, etc.
Laces: 1/2 yards for small widths and 12" for larger widths.
Buttons: 1-6 depending on the size with a sports theme.
Charms: 1-3 depending on the size.
Ribbon: Silk or satin send 1 to 2 yards. Wide ribbon send 18" .
Misc: Trims, cording, leather, conchos, sequins, etc. use your judgement.
INTERNATIONAL SWAPPERS: It is important to mark on your parcels "USED FABRIC- UNDER $15" IS IMPORTANT. The value of $15 was not an arbitrary figure chosen. With the exchange rate so high(1.4049) anything over $15 will translate to a figure close to or over $40 Canadian and will require attention from Customs. This will result in duty tax and a handling fee being charged.
EMAIL me at ILuv2Kwilt@aol.com to let me know that you sent out your package to me. I will email you to let you know when I get it and when I send it back to you.
Thanks, IL2K
