If you want to participate in a swap, you must be a member of this group.

pre-wash and press if you have any pets or smoke

cut your fabric as accurately as possible!

sign the back of one :)

you can send a variety of different prints & solids

enclose a card or note to say hello, letting your swap partner know who you are.

if you use a nickname here at swn, please indicate that the person you are sending to, is not necessarily the person shipping TO you.

NEVER use the mailing address of your swap partner for any other reason without permission, keep it private.

IMPORTANT: send your fabric out by the deadline. get a tracking number for your shipment, in case it gets lost and so I can track it. please put your tracking number in a safe place in your sewing room, in case we need it.

Should the package not arrive in a reasonable amount of time depending on the destination, I will ask for the tracking number. If you don't have a tracking number and the package does not arrive within 14 days after I have asked for the tracking number, your account at Sew-Whats-New.com will be closed. To avoid having your account closed, you can re-send a second package and submit the tracking number to me the day it goes into the mail system.

If I am unable to get a response from you regarding the swap, your shipment, etc, your account at Sew-Whats-New.com will be closed within 14 days of my last attempt to reach you. I've run many swaps in my years working online and believe me the rules above are necessary. It's a very sad occurrence when a swap partner does not receive their package because their partner opted out.
