    Thanks, Red! Looking forward to some beautiful flower charms!

    My suggestions for the next swap:

    Solids
    Black/White
    Mix of Fall colors/Autumn/leaves
    Christmas

    I don't think that doing an I Spy swap would be appropriate because that is already an ongoing swap on the board.

    I like the black/white theme as well as solids . . . or starting over with color groups. I agree that the I Spy theme is already taken.

    Red, you do such a great job with keeping us organized, sorry for so many inconsistencies in this month's mailing. Open mail is occurring more often with my mail …. don't know if it's coming from within postal ranks or somebody is getting to the mail before it is delivered but it lessened greatly after filing a formal complaint with regional postal authorities.

    I think Fall/Autumn would be nice, considering that it's almost that time of year.

    Other Ideas:

    Black & White
    Brown
    Black Background
    White Background
    Brights
    Pastels
    Christmas
    Solids
    Animals (sort of I-Spy-ish, but as I understand it, the I-Spy hostess isn't able to host any swaps at the moment due to health issues. Hope she's feeling better soon! <3 )
    Primary Colors
    Stripes
    Civil War Repro
    Sewing Notions/Themes
    Anything Goes
    Rainbow
    1930's Repro

    black/white - that one I can do! I've been collecting black/white fabrics for a long time. keep thinking I'll use them in a bargello- going from mostly black with a bit of white to mostly white with a bit of black.

    I'd vote for 'anything goes.' I love scrappy quilts, and any fabric would mean everyone could use what they have from stash, even all the sets could be different and it wouldn't matter. It might be helpful for newcomers that want to do a lot of sets, but don't have lots of one color or one type of fabric.

    Yay! Mary got hers!~ The rest of you should be getting yours, soon, too!

    Please remember to leave feedback. It's important, particularly for those newer swappers who may not have as many feedback points. Some of the swaps here require you to have "X" number before participating, so ... help your fellow quilters along! Thanks!

    Default July floral charm pack swap

    Thank you to all involved in sharing the July floral charm pack swap. This is the first time that I have taken part in an event such as this. It was a positive experience and exciting to see the wide variety of fabrics we might not usually get to obtain. A special thank you to my sister, DSenters. We had fun preparing for this event.

    Got mine today! Woo hoo! I love them all, and every single square from every single person was cut perfectly.

    I'll post feedback shortly.

    There was one baggie that didn't have a name on it. It had a bunch of pretty pinks and a few 30's repro fabrics in it, which I love! If that was you, let me know your board name so I can leave you a positive feedback comment.
