I love swaps!
Making something with beautiful fabric and getting inspired for someone else is the greatest.
But I dread the part of signing up where they give you a little box and say
"Tell us a little bit about you so your partner will be able to make you something you'll love!"
In theory it all sounds great but then I look at that little box and have no idea what to say! Thank goodness for pictures and favorites because otherwise my boxes would over flow!
Here's what I would like to say in those tiny boxes. I love happy things. I love negative space
I love applique! I love piecing!
I love old things made new, in bright beautiful colors!
I love sketchy fun carefree drawings and I love my applique to feel the same!
I'm an artsy, modern, vintage, shabby chic, clean cut, happy kind of girl! I love kids and colors!
I love cartoon prints and sweet modern fairy tales!
I love large Swedish florals!
I love inspiration!
I love the amazing hand stitching on super old quilts! I love bold contrast and big prints!
I love embroidery and fussy cutting! I love red,
lime, apple,
turquoise,
aqua,
orange, tangerine, pink,
yellow, brown, white, gray! Aaaaah!
Hold on, I'm almost done!
I believe almost any color can be a neutral depending on how you use it!
Yeah, well it's a little hard to think of those things in the moment I have for signing up :) Not to mention it's a little confusing and contradictory. I mean really, "artsy, modern, vintage, shabby chic, clean cut, happy" but it's all true.
Oh, and gnomes :)
I like them too!
Hmm, maybe I'll just link here instead.
