*CHARM SWAP*
1) Charms will be swapped in sets. You may send as many sets each month as
you wish, you will get back the same number of sets. A set will be defined as 3 charms of different fabrics, consisting of a "light," a "dark," and a "medium" value of the color of the month. Values may be relative within your set, so your "light" could be the equivalent to someone else's "medium" or "dark" (i.e. if Black/White were the color choice, one person may have a white, a light grey and a medium grey, a second person may have a white, a medium grey and a black, and a third may have a medium grey, a dark grey and a black.all three would be valid sets for that color). In the event that a person sends more sets than persons in a particular month, you will receive repeats and/or one or more of your own sets back (i.e. you send 10 sets, but only 8 people participate). I will always do my best to return as many different sets as possible. Charms are to be 6" square 2) You may opt in or opt out on a monthly basis. Only swap the months you want to. To allow me to keep track, please e-mail me if you will be sending sets that month so I can watch for your package/envelope. 3) Solids are not allowed, but tone-on-tones (i.e. white on white) are allowed. A solid is defined as one even color value with no variations, therefore batiks and hand dyed fabrics are not considered solids. All fabrics should be cotton and of a quality you would use in your own quilts. 4) Return postage is payable by the participant. You may either send an envelope or box with correct (non-metered) return postage, or send appropriate postage to be attached to a post office supplied Priority or Express Mail box or envelope. Unless arranged in advance I will not supply return envelopes other than those available at no cost at the post office (i.e. if you just want first class mail instead of Priority or Express, send an envelope). Anyone that wishes to participate from outside the USA, arrangements can be made to save you shipping/postage expenses.please contact me. 5) Charm sets should be baggie-ed (or otherwise attached in sets). They should be labeled with your name, your email and/or snail mail address, and whether or not the fabric has been prewashed. 6) Charm sets are due to me by the 20th of the month, I will send them back out by the end of the month. (email for address to mail charm swap packages) Now.for some thoughts on colors.I would like to tie at least a few months into the holidays. I'm thinking.
