This swap is a colour specific scavenger hunt for sewing supplies!

You must find for your partner, in their favorite colour sceme:

  • One Fat Quarter (not plain, some kind of pattern)
  • 2 skeins of DMC quality floss or 1 spool thread
  • Ribbon (3 yards or more)
  • Buttons - either 1 large, 2 medium or 3 small
  • One Profile Surprise Item (does not need to be sewing related)

Please be creative - take a look at your partner's profile to see what she likes/dislikes. Does she like polka dots?stripes?floral?certain patterns?etc?

The Profile Surprise item can be something handmade, a pin cushion, or something you buy or have in your stash, like a bookmark, notecards, embellishments, socks, etc. The profile surprise item does not need to be sewing related.

The requirements for this swap are:

  • 5 real mail swaps which have been rated (not postcards, or email swaps, etc.).
  • You MUST have a COMPLETELY filled out and somewhat detailed profile.
  • You must have a rating of 4.9 or higher
  • You MUST rate your partner and
  • No no sends - EVER.

I will be checking profiles to make sure you meet the requirements! I do not want any flakers in this swap!

This will be a USA & CANADA swap because of postage costs! If somone would like to host an international swap like this - feel free to copy the idea!

Please say below which colour is your favorite and have fun!

I would like tiny prints as I am a doll cloths maker for 10" dolls. Tiny would be good. Love all colors.

fabriholic 01/ 1/2009 #

I would love some combo yellow/gold and black prints if possible...if not how about some Perwiinkle blues.

SadiesParty 01/ 1/2009 #

I pick brown and pink combos for this one! Thank You!

shellipw 01/ 2/2009 #

I would like green, foresty colors, but they could be mixed in with another color.

LillyRae 01/ 6/2009 #

I love Lime green and purple! Any style or color is appropriate for me but any color that is bright!!

Hi everyone! I am thinking of making this swap a monthly occurence. I

was wondering if you guys could let me know any suggestions you may have. For example - do you like that you can pick the colour you would like to receive - or should I mix it up a bit sometimes and chose a theme (or colour).

Also, should I set up a Flikr group for all of us to post our swaps, and should I make a separate group for here on Swap-bot?

Any suggestions would be wonderful! Thanks! :)

tomosia 01/ 9/2009 #

I really love all colors, but for this swap I think I will pick red.

I'll go with small print beige

sunnysmiles 01/21/2009 #

I'd love anything in small, pastel colored prints, flosses, or print ribbons! But actually am not real fussy...it's just nice to get something in the mail all just for ME! ha!

LillyRae 01/27/2009 #

I like anything bright but I realized that I don't have much of yellow! So bright yellows would be great!

Pink, pink and more pink please! Or Cupcakes!
