Please Read All Rules Carefully!!
***Please note that I have changed the name of this swap to the "Fabric Square Swap." I think this will include more people than just those wanting 1.5" squares. Please still keep your square sizes smaller than 5" so that they can easily be sent in a regular envelope.***
***If you PM me and don't see this page updated (i.e. with send-outs, packages recieved, etc) within 24 hours, please PM me again to remind me. Thanks!!***Swap name: Unconditional "Million" 1.5 Inch Square Swap

SWAP DETAILS
-- Each person interested will post a list of maximum FIVE amount of squares that they would like to recieve, as well as what size they would like the squares to be. Please post the size even if you want the 1.5" squares (which is the default for this swap.)
-- Please keep square sizes small (under 5"). The blocks are for crazy quilts!!
-- Please also post any other information that might be helpful to those who choose to send squares to you (Color preferences, style, 100% cotten, etc).
-- Those coming along this thread will scroll and read all sign ups, and decide if they want to send squares to someone. Those who sign up as well are free to craft for another.
-- The catch to this is you cannot expect anything in return for your efforts except a thank you. That is why it's called an unconditional swap. You can hope that someone else or maybe that same person would want to send you squares as well and then craft for you. And knowing the great craftsters here, I'm sure everyone will receive something.
-- Each person can be picked 3 TIMES! This means that only 3 people can send to someone. Within those 5 people, the person may receive all 5 amounts of squares. I.e. "A", "B", and "C" are sending to "X". A chooses to send 2 amounts of squares off the list, "B" chooses to send 1 amount of squares, and "C" chooses to send 2 amount of squares. Therefore fulfilling all 5 wishes of "X".
--Now, it is not necessary to fulfill all three 5 wishes..."A" could send just one item and "B" could choose to send one item and "C" could send one item, thereby fulfilling three wishes on "X's" wish list.
-- When you post your wish list be sure to mention the country you are in on that post. Please see example post below.
-- Once you have been picked three times your name will be crossed out in red on the list. You can be on the list again the next month.
-- The crossed out names can be back on the list the next month
-- As soon as anyone picks a partner, you have to ship them their stuff within 1 week.
I would appreciate if you could PM me with the DC number or scan the receipt. And - Please DO NOT write your original post in any other color but black. This will make it easier to sort through.
-- All in all this is sort of a good karma swap. Give unconditionally is your motto my fellow craftsters.
-- All regular swap rules do apply for this. All of you who sign up will be screened to see if you are eligible to join the swap, including Newbies.
-- Positive and Negative feedback will be given for this swap. Your feedback will reflect the number of people you send to that month.
-- When you PM me your wish choices, please include their craftster name, wish # and wish.
-- Please DO NOT post your lists until AFTER I've told you you're in.
-- When you have been picked PLEASE crossout and change the colour of your post accordingly (green for one wish, blue for two wishes, and red for three-five wishes fulfilled). If you need help with that, feel free to PM me.
