QnT Adopt us swap – Orphan quilt blocks

11-3-12 thru 11-17-12

--2 partners

--1 orphan block each partner

You will send two partners to send at least 1orphan quilt block each but you may send more. An orphan quilt block is one that is left over from a previous project, is made well, and should be clean and neat. Please don’t send the ones that were left out of your project because they were irregular or messed up.

I love to see other people’s handy work and I enjoy collecting blocks for sampler quilts.

You may also send any pre-cut pieces for additional blocks if you want but be sure to send instructions on how to assemble the pieces and send all the required ingredients as well. Also, if you have leftover fabric that matches the blocks feel free to include it.

Since these blocks are already sitting in your stash you won’t need a lot of time to assemble them so the sending period for this swap is shorter than the swaps I usually set up. This package shouldn’t be too heavy and postage should be low as well.

Enjoy!

What a great idea! I love a good "kitchen sink" quilt. Is it okay to state a preference for a certain color block, if available? I would love any Orphan quilt blocks that have a lot of RED in them.

this swap will be senders choice but you are welcome to offer suggestions, that way if sender has multiple blocks to chose from they will know which one to send in a better attempt to get a heart!

Can you assign partners? I have my squares ready and am trying to make a post office run with all the other swaps I have.

Since this is international I am hoping that those that send or receive from other than the USA will send as soon as possib le as it takes a long time to get here and back there I am sure and besides you should have an orphan block laying around somewhere already. I will do the same.
