I'd love to swap with you. How long should the strips be? And how on earth can you make a 1/2 inch strip work?

ohhh i am really excited now to be getting some new fabric

Gem asked me some very sensible questions about the fabric:

I am using sheet weight fabric rather than furnishing fabric for the 'special' quilt - please can you tell me what weight fabric you would like in return

for me any colours or size of print will work (but red is my fav!!) - please let me know if you have any preference for your swap

this is the current ones colours - but the next one will have some browns and orange as well i think

If anyone would like any furnishing weight strips I had cut some out for Mitty but she rejected them only joking! but I wont be using them so they are free to whoever wants them. When I say furnishing weight I mean cotton duck (thicker CK stuff) x

I may need to take a pic to get you convinced
