A NEW trial swap will take place in March and run in conjunction with the regular swap. Its a PATTERN swap. So far I only have 4 members wanting to take part in this so please comment if you think you would like to trial it to.
How it will work is your partner for your 12 inch block in March will also be your PATTERN SWAP partner. Simply send them a pre-loved quilting pattern with their block and they will send you one of theirs.
I am thinking of having the pattern swap run quarterly and will theme it with the seasons. IE for March we may trade a pre-loved Autumn inspired pattern, such as a wall hanging, table runner or bag.
Sounds like fun !! just pop a comment on this post if you are keen to give it a try

Sounds like a GREAT idea.
Count me in!
Hi Sue,
Not sure what is meant by a pattern swap - is this something we design ourselves? a block? a quilt? anyway, sounds like something I would like to try, so please count me in. I love to design.
Cheers,
Karen.
