Description:

This swap is a fat quarter swap. The type of fabric we will be swapping would be cute fabric, things I would categorize as youthful or children's fabric - like hello kitty, care bears, little fairies, baby animals or other cute things. Normally I find these kind of fabrics near or in the section for children. You will have two partners and you will have to send each one fat quarter. You can send them other goodies if you want, like ribbon or buttons but you are only obligated to send the fat quarters.

If there are certain things you don't want, I would recommend posting about it. Otherwise, pick something cute for your partner based on their profile.

Now for the rules: This swap is International. It is open only to swappers with a rating of 4.5 or higher. As hostess, I have the right to ban people at my discretion if they seem dodgy.

I would prefer hello kitty / sanrio - but really any kind of cute fabric would work (animals, babies, whatever) except i do not want more common cartoon characters like dora or spongebob or things like that. i like cotton or flannel but no fleece please.

Could you give measurements for a fat quarter? I've not encountered them before, which is hardly surprising since I'm a newbie and from Europe, heart of the metric system :)

Craftlover10101 03/28/2007 #

Hi I don't know for Europe but here in the states it says on one of my purchased fat quarters approximatly 18 x 22 inches

Cloverst 03/28/2007 #

*runs to get calc.... That's 45 x 55 cm. you times inches by 2.5 :)

lol i hate math lmao thx for the help hahahahahaha i'll be hunting in my stash of material thats gonna take some time lol. or i could just go buy more,hmmmmm that sounds like a better idea lmao

Craftlover10101 04/ 1/2007 #

Wow now i'm trippin hard core lmao. I just found someone with my name on here. And so I added the S for the beginning of my last name. And I came in to let all the swaps I'm on know about it and low and behold it changed all of my post's by itself! WOW Swap bot really needs to fix that so no one has the same name.

Ok I hunted through my stuff, I found a couple kiddie one's and some that would work for kiddies but maybe a little older kiddies. Does that work? Like butterfly's?

ellawitch 04/ 4/2007 #

i think the emphasis for this swap is cute, not necessarily on kid's fabric. like in the case of hello kitty, i know it's probably for kids but i am not a kid - i am a grownup - and i still love her. another example, i saw some adorable hedgehog fabric with little cartoon hedgehogs. for kids - maybe? but cute definitely! i hope that makes sense. as for the butterflies, i would wait and see who my partner is, than check their profile and their comments here....

drewzel 04/ 4/2007 #

I don't have kids, so please don't send my kids fabrics. Anything cute with things like Hello Kitty or little animals, butterflies, ladybugs, birds etc. would be great!

Craftlover10101 04/ 4/2007 #

Well what I was calling kiddie was strawberry shortcake, rainbow hearts brights, but than there were some butterflys that a teenager would like, very nice but not too cute lol. Yep I will have to see what my partner prefers. I have kids but that doesn't mean they are going to get the material lol. I'm a fabric hog lol. My husband calls me something else. HeatherS

ellawitch 04/ 4/2007 #

yes i don't have kids either - i like cute not kids myself. maybe i could have worded the swap more clearly? sigh. oh well. if someone could find me cute hedgehog fabric i would die a happy woman! anyway, cute little animal fabric would work for me too.

Craftlover10101 04/ 4/2007 #

I guess it's just best when we get our partners to ask, or everyone could kind of list what they would prefer.

I would like to receive only cute fabric featuring Hello Kitty, Bunnies, Strawberries, Cherries, cupcakes, small print of roses, Strawberry Shortcake and junk food. Please don't send any fabric that are Disney and other kid type fabric as I don't have any kids. Thank you!!

ellawitch 04/ 6/2007 #

maybe next round i will just call it kawaii fabric - maybe that would be clearer? or not?

Craftlover10101 04/ 6/2007 #

um not what is kawaii fabric? lol I am feeling olllllddddd.

ellawitch 04/ 6/2007 #

kawaii means cute in japanese

honeybee 04/ 7/2007 #

I hope all of you who want Hello Kitty fabric gets me as a partner! I have several prints that I can send out. As for me, the only request I have is I would like 100% cotton or poly/cotton blend fabrics. Can't wait to get our partners!

craftersbag 04/ 7/2007 #

I would like Hello Kitty fabric(pink) or black cats,gnomes,and frogs.

Craftlover10101 04/ 7/2007 #

Well I think I'm gonna drop from this because I don't know what I have that would fit as kawaii. I have tons of new fabrics and really cute stuff but not a bunch of Hello Kitty or Frogs. So ya'll have fun with this one. I'll have to pay attention better to the up to date stuff people are wanting as cute.

ellawitch 04/15/2007 #

fyi - accidents has deleted her profile. it shows she sent her items but i find this doubtful. i am working on making sure everyone gets something and have contacted those people who are her partners....

SaReMa 04/23/2007 #
