Swaps with Love and Affection

Be*Mused also talked about a swap post by Calamity Kim that I thought was useful if you are thinking about participating in a swap.

I haven’t participated in a swap since the advent of Web 2.0, so I don’t remember what it was like except for the stress I felt. If I were on the receiving end of Jan’s doll quilt (from Be*Mused blog) I would be thrilled, but we all know it isn’t always like that. Review Kim’s tips and tricks before you sign on the dotted line.

Swap Etiquette

I want to write about Swaps and I want this to be upbeat and positive.

 I have also been in some amazing swaps where I was the receiver of a box , that once opened,  made me feel overwhelmed with love and affection.

Yokohama Quilt Show Photos

No, these are not my photos. Movinghands, over on Flickr, has graciously shared her photos from the Pacifico quilt show with the world. Be*mused was kind enough to point the posting out on her blog.These have a different look than the PIQF photos I posted last month. More subtle colors and applique’. I have just been looking at Gwen Marston books, so applique’ is on my mind. Enjoy.
