Fabric Container Swap Recap

We couldn’t wait to share this Fabric Container Swap Recap! Our recent Fabric Container Swap was a great success, attracting quilters mostly from the USA, with a few participants joining from places like Australia, the United Kingdom, and Canada. It was impressive to see our community come together, sharing a common passion for quilting.

Members of our Facebook Community were particularly active, posting updates, showcasing their finished projects, and sharing the pieces they received. Continue reading for a full recap of the Fabric Container Swap, including all the creative details and stories from this exciting event.

Swapping Community Showcase

In our lively Facebook Community group, members were on fire with excitement as they shared their progress, flaunted their creations, and cheered over the treasures they received. From snapping quick progress shots to revealing the final masterpieces, the group was buzzing with energy at every stage of the swap. It was a pure delight to scroll through the feed and witness the diverse array of projects coming to life!

Our Generous Sponsor

A massive shoutout to PBS Fabrics for making our swap even more exciting with their awesome sponsorship! Their support truly added an extra spark to the event. Let’s give a big round of applause to our lucky winner! 🎉

Congratulations to Clementine M for scoring an assortment of Fat Quarters and a Color Card. Enjoy your fantastic prize, and thanks again to  PBS Fabrics for their wonderful contribution! 👏

Live Show and Tell

As we wrapped up the swap, we gathered for an exciting Zoom rendezvous. During our virtual hangout, participants showcased their fabulous creations in a virtual show-and-tell session. It was a delightful occasion as partners connected online, sharing stories and expressing their gratitude for the experience. 

The camaraderie and laughter of this informal gathering have left us eagerly looking forward to our next swap!

Swap Angels

In our Fabric Container Swap, a “Swap Angel” steps in if someone can’t complete their project. So far, we’ve only needed one Swap Angel, showing how reliable our community is. Once participants are assigned a swap partner, they start communicating via email. These initial emails often lead to more interactions and connections within our Facebook group, where they share experiences and build friendships alongside their fabric containers.
