Individual swap



This fabric and wish came from Cecile Richard in France, and was an individual swap. The fabric has a white background with cute kittens all over it. Its quite beautiful.

Nursery swap



This beautiful nursery fabric has a white background and has a flowered print with colourful toys. I have now finished the nursery quilt (apart from the edge border) so sadly wont be able to use it in that, but I might use it as part of the pillow case, or in the main quilt. The fabric and wish is part of the nursery swap that I hosted and was sent by Cathy Pie, Co, USA.

These two identical fabrics came from the nursery swap. They have a blue background and have the characters from hey diddle diddle and other nursery rhymes. This came from the David family in Oklahoma and I will try to add a piece to my nursery quilt blue squares.

This is one of the last squares and wishes from my first group swap and comes from the Carr family in Australia. The fabric is a cream background with colourful flowers and Asian children playing. I have received a few other similar fabrics but not identical and will put them all together as part of my adult 100 GW quilt.

Nursery quilt swap.



These two lovely fabrics were sent from Anik Nolet from Canada and part of the nursery quilt swap which I hosted on the OHGW Yahoo group. The have a white background with a green pattern of Beatrix potter characters and are very cute. I will add this into the nursery quilt.

I only have three outstanding swaps from the nursery exchange, and have recently take part in the red exchange, Christmas exchange and some individual fabric swaps so will hopefully soon have enough for the main 100 good wishes full size quilt. Thats a taks however, which I am not looking forward to starting.
