Description:

Some people call this a Scrap Vomit Quilt and others call it a Mini Charm Quilt. Whatever you want to call it, this is a swap for 2.5” squares. Here are the details:

• You will be swapping 49 – 2.5” squares of material with 3 partners. This will give you enough squares to create three 7x7 square block (14 inches wide).

• Since it is a scrap quilt there is not an expectation that the squares will be fussy cut. But it is an expectation that each be cut as a 2.5” by 2.5” square. You have a grace of about 1/8" on each side however squares any larger would not meet the requirements.

• Each 2.5” square should be a single material (please don’t sew scraps together to make a square).

• Ideally you will send 49 different fabric squares however if you can’t PLEASE try to include as many different fabrics as possible.

• Fabric should be quilting quality cotton material. Fabrics that would not be allowed would be flannel, heavy weight cotton, polyester, etc. Remember only swap material that you would be happy to receive for a quilt.

• Use a mix of patterns with little to none solids included – they patterns do not have to match as the variety of fabrics is the fun of it.

We all understand that life gets in the way sometimes however it is expected that you will send your squares by the deadline. If you are unable to do this communication is key!!

As for ratings, if you received 49 quality fabric squares on time this would meet the swap and deserve a 5 regardless of whether you love every fabric pattern sent.

This is the third in the series. Please note that if you get the same partner, as a previous 2.5” square swap you may receive duplicate fabrics.

Hi @nicole2 - I don't think it would be good to change this swap today since it is the last day but I do have a smaller version that is international: http://www.swap-bot.com/swap/show/171312
