TOPIC: SISTERHOOD OF THE TRAVELING TRIANGLES EXCHANGE

Re: SISTERHOOD OF THE TRAVELING TRIANGLES EXCHANGE 21 Jan 2011 16:29 #54166

I'm in!! I did an exchange of 'jars' years ago and have wanted to try another exchange! very exciting.
Just to be sure, all types of fabric are OK as long as it is quality cotton, and a light and a dark/medium. Right?

I have papers

Margo,

We'll try very hard to make sure no one gets their own HST's back as long as they send in a somewhat reasonable number. I'm afraid it we starting getting 400-500+, we may run into that happening. But it's great to know you love your fabrics that much. I can relate to that because I buy fabrics without a specific project in mind, then when I do have a project to do I wind up buying more because I don't want to use up what I've become attached to!

I did sign-up for a P.O. Box today and I'll be posting that right into my initial Forum posting on Page 1 so it will be easy to find for everyone.

I'll be making at least that many, but will only send in approximately as many as the number of participants we wind up with. I am thrilled to see so many new members posting on the forum, and participating in this International Exchange!

Thanks again to Debbie and Clara for taking on this task. I hope we don't make you turn tail and run for the hills! :lol:

Ordering papers, I guess that means I am in the swap.

I'm in for 140 HST's. Have papers and ready to start. What fun!
Just thinking I might write my location on each HST paper. Yes?

I was wondering about the return envelope and postage. I used the flat rate small box that the PO provides and the postage was $5 and some change. Maybe it would be a good idea to order those boxes from the PO (they are free and they will deliver them to you) and have folks send in $6 for getting their HST back. Also have them send a return label to put on the box. It is just a suggestion. You are going to be drowning in HST and just sorting them out is going to be a massive task. Getting them into different size envelopes with the proper postage will be an even bigger hassle. Being able to streamline the mailing back process would be a big help. The international issue is another matter altogether.
I live in Virginia but if I can be any help let me know. I will have extra papers so if you need them let me know.

Leafy,

You are right on target with the size of the squares. I measured one I had received from Edyta in a previous exchange. It had not been opened and it still had the paper on, so it was very accurate. The square measured 2-1/2", so once you sew it into your project with a 1/4" seam allowance, it will be 2" in your project.
