Our Facebook Community members were buzzing with activity, sharing updates, showcasing their finished projects, and showing off the beautiful pillow covers they received. Keep reading for a full recap of the Pillow Cover Swap, complete with all the creative details and heartwarming stories from this exciting event.
Swapping Community Showcase
Our vibrant Facebook Community group was buzzing with excitement! Members eagerly shared their progress, flaunted their beautiful creations, and celebrated the gorgeous pillow covers they received. From quick progress snaps to final masterpiece reveals, the energy was contagious at every stage of the swap. It was pure joy to scroll through the feed and see such a diverse array of projects come to life! Such a fun way to celebrate our Quilted Pillow Cover Swap Recap.
Our Generous Sponsor
We’re thrilled to announce that PBS Fabrics sponsored our prize for the Quilted Pillow Cover Swap, and it’s something truly special! The Sweet & Sour fabric line by Elena Fay is absolutely stunning, featuring a delightful array of prints that will add a pop of color and excitement to your next project. Each fabric in this Flat Stack is a Fat Quarter in size, offering versatility and endless creative possibilities. With a total of 12 prints included, you’ll have plenty of options to brighten up your quilting projects! All participants got a chance to win, but those who engaged more inside the Clubhouse earned additional entries. Congratulations to our lucky winner, Francine Jetton, for taking home this fantastic prize!
Live Show and Tell
As we wrapped up the swap, we gathered for an exciting Zoom hangout. During our virtual get-together, participants showcased their fabulous pillow covers in a fun show-and-tell session. It was a delightful occasion where partners connected online, shared stories and expressed their gratitude for the wonderful experience.
The camaraderie and laughter from this informal gathering have us eagerly looking forward to our next swap!
Swap Angels
In our Pillow Cover Swap, a “Swap Angel” steps in if someone can’t complete their project. So far, we’ve only needed one Swap Angel, which speaks volumes about the reliability of our community. Once participants are paired with a swap partner, they begin 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 pillow covers.
