We're trying something new with
this swap!
In this swap, you will sign up
and make your item, but you will not get a partner until the due date.
If you are not finished making your swap, you will not get a partner.
If you are, you will get a partner, and mail out immediately.
Pat says this type of swap is really good, because if you don't have
your item done,
you don't have to worry about being late as you just won't swap!
Your Swap Leader is Julie Old Crow click the link with any questions, or to sign up.
Welcome to our 4th Annual Quilt swap! In this swap, we will be making a patchwork quilt like the one made for Hitty when she was with the Preble's. This quilt can be seen in the book in the illustration shown above.
Need some help?
There is a Hitty
Book Quilt Tutorial on Julie Old Crow's Site.
The quilt should measure 5 squares across, and 6 squares down, with a border as shown. The squares should be about 1" or perhaps 1 1/2" each. Try to replicate the book quilt as much as possible as to fabrics, but don't stress on it too much! We are all willing to substitute fabrics as needed. Filler is optional--you might consider leaving it out to make the quilt more flexible. Backing is your choice of fabrics. Quilt can be hand-quilted, machine-quilted, tied off, or left plain.
What to Send:
