A colleague of mine and fellow member of the IMQG is also co-creator of Craft Buds, a site that collects all sorts of craft-related content (tutorials, giveaways, interviews, and even the 4-1-1 on creating your own craft biz) and brings it together for one-stop shopping. When Lindsay posted that Craft Buds was joining forces with an online fabric shop to sponsor a swap of yellow, aqua, and gray charms (translation: 5-inch fabric squares), I had to join in the fun.
If you haven't heard the news, fabric swaps and virtual quilting bees abound in the online quilting/sewing world. I've never joined one, being a little nervous about expectations and working under deadlines; but this swap only involved
Buying 1 yard of fabric in any combination of yellow, aqua, and gray
Cutting it up into 5-inch squares
Dropping said squares in the mail to be combined with 27 other swappers' squares
Sitting back and waiting (im)patiently for my mixed-up charm pack to show up in my mailbox
Not too difficult, so I figured I could handle it. I tried so hard to find gray fabric that I liked and wanted to swap, but to no avail. Finally I settled on the Moda Hunky Dory print you see above. You can scroll here to see what I'll be getting in return.
