the fine print:
we're swapping 5 inch charm squares in shades of gray. so any grey, black & white are acceptable. grey with black, black on white, black with gray dots - but no other colors please! rotary cut only. each swapper will cut 2 different half yard cuts, into 24, 5 inch charms each. each swapper agrees to use only top quilt shop quality, new cotton quilting fabric from a smoke free home. (no fabric from walmart or joann's or granny's stash) please don't prewash your fabrics. and finally, no flannel.
fat quarter shop is sponsoring an amazing giveaway for our shades of gray swap - more details to come soon! be sure to stop by their shop and see all the fabulous gray fabrics they have!
or if you choose to go black and white, they have lots to pick from too!

Sounds like fun to me! I'd love to join.
I'm leaving an intent to participate on behalf of my mother who doesn't have email.
This is a fun swap idea, Tammie--I'm in, please!!

Sign me up, sounds like it was made for me. Need a grey and black quilt for next Christmas. YaY!
Ooh! Ooh, Ooh! I'm in!
Yes, please!
sure, why not, I love the idea! May I join all of you???
I'd love to join! I've been thinking of doing a quilt in these colors so this is perfect ;)
I'd love to join, too, if you have room! thanks!
Hi Tammie! Count me in, please!
Tammie, This sounds like fun! I've never really been a fan of gray, but I'm finding it so useful, I'd like to play. When I read your post, I had a vision of a marvelous red and gray quilt top, so I just have to join, if I may. I'll go scouting for gray fabrics this weekend. Thanks!
I'm in.....Have been wanting to do a grey quit for a while...
I'm in. :)
I want to swap too! Thanks! =)
I'd like to swap
I would love to participte! Besides being a charm square addict, I've been trying to add grays to my stash.
Tammie, I was thinking of doubling up on this swap, so if you find you need another person, just let me know to send double. But I don't want to take a spot from someone else who wants it. Just let me know either way.
My fabric is already on its way here and I am excited about picking out a design to make! Thanks for organizing this swap!

Hey, double up sounds good to me. Let me know, I am ordering fabric in the morning.
I would like to participate in the swap - Thanks!!
Count me in. Just ordered several grey fabrics, not sure which ones I'll use, though.
Rats, I think I'm number 24. If anyone is out, please count me in!
I too would LOVE to participate but it seems you may be full? Please let me know if there is still room. Thanks!!
