modern siggy swap.

welcome to the modern siggy swap yall.

in this version of the siggy swap we'll be using fresh, modern fabrics.

some fresh, modern fabrics would included any of the following designers:

kate spain, heather bailey, anna maria horner, tula pink,

amy butler, lila tueller, joel dewberry, paula prass, patty young

denyse schmidt, sandi henderson, erin mcmorris, tina givens

basic grey, momo, & chez moi.

just to name a few. lol.

if you have a question about a certain fabric, just ask.

if you've seen my tutorial, you know these blocks are easy peasy to make.

the amount of blocks made will depend on the number of swappers.

if we have 50 swappers, yall will make 51 blocks.
if we have 100 swappers, yall will make 101 blocks.
{sign ups will close at 100. that's a promise.}

so why the extra block???
i am asking that everyone make one additional block.
i will be making a charity quilt with all extra blocks.
this quilt will be blessed to a worthy cause.
{us swappers will discuss this later on.}

just a few particulars/guidelines:

you must follow my siggy block tutorial.
you must use quilt shop quality fabrics.

you must use a white fabric as your block centers. not cream.
you must handwrite your signature. not machine stitch it.

this will be a centralized swap...

meaning all blocks will be mailed to me.

with your blocks you'll include a SASE for blocks to be returned to you.

note: if you don't send a SASE, you blocks will live at my house until you send one.

it's only fair.

since this is centralized...international pals are very welcomed!!!

{we will use paypal for US postage fees.}

we will be communicating through our modern siggy swap flickr group.
