this has been the largest trade I have participated in
54 1/2 yards
and no, I am not kidding you!
Sherry traded 42 yards (older fabrics)
1/2 yard cuts = 20 1/2 yards
1 yard cuts = 9 yards
2 yard cuts = 8 yards
1/4 yards cuts = 4 1/2 yards
I could just kick myself for not photographing
the jewelry before mailing it!
I created 3 crystal, silver and pewter bead
bracelets and 1 lanyard.
and Jodi {Pleasant Home} traded 12 1/2 yards (newer fabrics)
fat quarters = 5 1/2 yards
short of a fat quarter = 3 yards
1/4 yard cuts = 1 3/4 yards
1/3 - 1/2 yard cuts = 2 1/3 yards
I created 1 necklace, turquoise earrings,
3 charms, 2 zipper pulls

ReplyDeleteHow very fun to receive all those yards and yards of fabulous fabrics! Lucky you! Thank you for visiting my giveaway! :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful system you've figured out. We all have things in excess that I'm sure could be traded to someone else who could use what we have...Thanks for the nice comment on my blog and for your encouragement as I work out my quest to simplify. Patty
