This is another great idea proposed by @snailgirl - thx dear! (";)


There are so many great Holiday flair/Christmas fabrics out there, so let's do some shopping and cutting and share it with each other! When this swap is finished, we will each have enough Holiday Flair fabric strips to make a fun holiday lap quilt

USING THIS VIDEO TUTORIAL Or, you can use THIS PDF Tutorial

We will have 4 partners so we will need a minimum of 5 people to join to make this work. Each participant purchases a half yard (18" or 45 cm) of four different quilt quality cotton holiday fabrics. (Or if you already have a huge stash of quilting quality holiday cotton, you may choose from that instead, as long as you have at least half a yard of each!) Do this with each of the 4 pieces: Cut in half so you end up with 2 pieces, each 9" (22.5 cm) x the width. You will now have 8 pieces of assorted fabric. Do this with each of the 8 pieces: Cut into two uneven strips (widths totaling 9" or 22.5 cm). Keep the 2 pieces of the same fabric together - this will be a "set". Keep one set (totaling 9") of each fabric for yourself and send the remaining 4 sets to your partners. Each of your partners will receive a different set of fabric. Each of us will end up with 16 strips (8 of our own, and 8 from our partners) to sew into a nice little quilt approximately 42"x 64".

Open to all NFS members in good standing who also meet the swapping criteria stated in my profile. Please go the This Swap To finish your items.

Have fun!
