Happy Friday guys! First up, I have been wanting to host a fabric swap for some time now, but I wanted some feedback since the people in the swap group are very important!
This is what I have thought about what I would like to do, whether it's now or later. Here are the options.
Option A
Charm Swap (5 inch squares)
I know these are more expensive fabrics ($11-$18/yd), but this will be a great way to get a variety of these organic prints without spending too much! Also, these fabrics do go on sale from time to time.
Not familiar with Cloud9 or Birch? Cedar House Fabrics has a nice selection with free shipping for US/Canada, so click on the link to check out the prints.
Please only vote once per poll. (For Spoonflower, we'll do I Spy for Charms and Layer Cakes could be a theme, color range, or random)
Onto Fabric Friday!
tonic living sells a mixture of quilting weight cottons, upholstery/drapery, outdoor, flannel, and other fabrics. they are based in Canada, so keep that in mind if you are shopping in the US. prices seem reasonable anywhere from $10-30/yd in US dollars.
Have a great weekend, and thank you for stopping in today!

- Cloud9/Birch mix
- Spoonflower (If we do Layer Cakes, we can choose a theme, color range, or a random assortment instead of I Spy Charms)
LOVE Tonic living!! They offer $1 swatches too that are 6" ~ 8" square. I ordered a bunch from here for Carson's room and they came really quickly.
ReplyDeleteI've never done a layer cake swap so I would be up for that. I think the cloud9/birch mix would be cool, but I'm also down for spoonflower.
ReplyDeleteLove the links. I'll participate in any swap you decide. I am a swap addict you know. Love the plaid vehicles! Not so much the fuzzy fabrics though I love the color palette.
ReplyDeleteOh and I am really LOVING the Birch fabrics. But anything sounds like fun.
DeleteI like the 112 Spoonflower I-spy swap idea.
