Bits and Bobs

I was wondering if you all are aware that May - Confessions of a Fabraholic - is hosting a charm swap? This swap is involving text fabrics only and if you sign up for it you will receive 56 charms, all different text fabrics. The only catch here is that the swap is only open to those of us living in Europe to keep postal costs down.  Right now 53 of the 56 places are filled and we are looking for 3 more people to fill the remaining places. Or one person to do three yards. Well, you never know, just thought I would plant the three yard idea.

Here is a little glimpse at some of the fabrics already chosen for the swap, to whet your appetite. And here is a link to the Flickr group if you want to see more.


If you are interested in filling one of the final spots please email me and join the Flickr group. I am standing in for May a bit while she is away on holiday.

Edit -  ** ALL places ine the Text Swap have now been filled. **

Other things going on involve a new bundle making contest over at Stitched in Color. You can read all about it over there. But if you are in the mood for fabric browsing and mosaic building then this one is for you. Here is the mosaic I came up with.


I would love to see what combination you could come up with.
