Due date: 29th February
Sign up: closed
Number of cards: 9 for 9


All silver inchies were mailed out on 3.3.08!.

Due date is 29th February 2008. 9 for 9 swap.

Inchies are simply pieces of art 1" square.

In this swap we are concentrating on making them SILVER

All techniques are welcome. I just love all the variety this produces!Check out my blogsite http://friedaquilter.blogspot.com/ under the inchies label to see some inchies I've made.You should be able to just about put your username on the back of the inchies (write small!).

UK participants, please enclose a SSAE with the same postage as is required to mail to me. I would really like to insist on the addressed envelope!!

US participants, please enclose a self addressed envelope and LOOSE US postage to the same amount as it takes to mail to me (which I can use to participate in US based swaps).

Other nationalities, pleased enclose a self addressed envelope and I will cover your postage.

May I just stress the importance of the Self Addressed Envelope wherever you are mailing from. These are very large swaps and having to decifer addresses and writing envelopes adds just too much time to the mailing out. Easier for me to just stick them in your envelope! Thanks so much!

Please e-mail me for my address once your GOLD inchies are ready for the mail!I know life sometimes gets in the way and you simply have to withdraw. I don't mind at all, but please let me know as soon as possible should this happen.Any questions, let me know!

We're only waiting for some silver beauties to come in from Canada and they I'll swap out. Hopefully they will come tomorrow but if not, I will give it a bit longer as this swap was caught up in all the confusion with the new group forming, and I could not reach Pippin for a while. Her inchies are definitely in the mail now!

I've just heard from Pippin who found the inchies envelope down the back of a seat of her car!! So sadly she has had to withdraw although I suggested she could use them to join my Inchies ATC Swap. This means I will be swapping out on Sunday (away teaching tomorrow) and mail out on Monday!!

All silver inchies were mailed out this morning, appropriately enough in the middle of a snow storm!!
There were a few participants who had elected to wait till the golden inchies are also mailed out so they still have to wait another month!
Thanks so much everyone, for the beautiful inchies which made this swap another wonderful success. Hope you'll all like the silver inchies as much as I did!

I'm Baaaack ;) I have searched and couldn't fine; Zanylady or Sparklet!!! Are they here with new names????
P.S. it would be helpful if the straglers would pop back on the thread so we can give rep . points more easily ...just a suggestion. I found the rest on the Memebers list .
