Mailed out 12 bags of charms today! I woke up late today and then remembered that I still had to cut all the charms and bag them - by 1:00 when the P.O. closes. The biggest challenges was, is this one too green, or too blue???? Well. I hope they will all be okay. I placed 16 in each baggie, just in case. And, because I didn't have any "extra surprise" to add. I'm looking forward to seeing all the pretty aqua/teal charms when they come in!
What would be a good color to pair them up with? I am still working on my 2017 BH Mystery On Ringo Lake, which I am using aqua, brown, off white neutral, and melon/salmon. I like that combo, but a bit tired of it now.
I'm wondering about white and yellow to go with the aqua. What do you think?

Here is an in progress of the quilt I mentioned before. It has aqua, blues, red, coral, chartreuse/lime ish greens. Not sure if I posted pics before. I am halfway done with sewing the rows together and would like to have the top done this week. I have used some of my charms from previous swaps in this quilt.

they sure do look great! I love the idea of using all our charms in one quilt.
You rock it, girlie!
Charms are slowly coming my way.....tick, tick, tick......the count-down is starting. I'm excited to be able to open them and redistribute. I love seeing what everyone is using them on!
I have a girlfriend that comes over and sews regularly. I've been hosting this swap for almost a year now, and I think she's jealous. I keep telling her she needs to join this group/site and join us! Stay tuned
