Description:

This is for all of those scrappy fabric lovers out there! I know I love to find and gather scraps of fabric to use in my sewing projects. I LOVE variety and a package full of scrap fabric pieces would just make my day.

Here's the rules:

  1. Fill a gallon sized ziplock bag (or a similar sized container) full of scraps of fabric. Fill it up! Make sure to reinforce your packaging so it doesn't bust open in the post.
  2. Fabric can be any weight, type, quality...this isn't limited to "quilting quality". To me, anything is quilting quality as long as it's cool.
  3. The more variety the better. I encourage small scraps with lots of different colors and prints, those ones that a lot of folks throw away. Let's say the scraps should be at least the size of a Kit Kat bar. For those of you healthy folks that don't reference candy for sizing, that will be about 3-1/4" wide x 4-1/4" long :P
  4. They can be irregular, no need to square 'em off or anything. Just try to keep it around the sizing requirement in total.
  5. If you want to send extras, go for it!

This will be International!

Everyone is welcome with a well filled out profile and a 4.9 rating or higher.

I could afford it if it were USA only, even though international fabrics would be awesome. :(

Is there a weight requirement for this? A lot of the scrap swaps I've done have a minimum ounce/gram requirement.

Would faux fur scraps be acceptable (as long as it's not the only thing sent)?

No weight requirement because I"m leaving it open to any kind of fabrics. Weight could vary quite a bit. I'd be cool with faux fur, felts, wool, cashmere in addition to the normal weight stuff like cotton, polyester, blends or whatever. Just make sure you send a variety of other things.

OH and only requirement is that you stuff it full!
