Description:

This will be a series of monthly swaps, but you don't have to join each month. You will have one partner each time. The stitcheries are 6 x 6 inch finished and can be used for a quilt, a wall hanging, a pillow, a tote bag, or whatever you like.

Make an embroidery on a piece of calico in the theme and color of your partner’s choice. The embroidery should fit in a 6 x 6 inch square, so make sure your fabric is 7 x 7 inch.

Because it's stitchery you can use primarily basic stitches: backstitch, running stitch, straight stitch and French knots.It can be appliqued or even pieced, as long as it meets the persons themes and colours.

After signing up for this swap, please go to the comments section and post your theme and color. IF YOU FORGET THIS, IT WILL BE SENDERS CHOICE!!

Have fun!

Are beads okay? I use them, just one or two, to highlight applique sometimes to add a little fun.

I should have added to this before. I don't mind what I am sent, although I am not keen on grey or beige. Go on surprise me.
