Thank you for hosting this swap. I've answered in a couple of other places, but guess this is the official one. May I join as an SW ( first half of SWAP) and participate by sending in sets of squares but not receiving any? I would love to participate but am not in a position to receive them.  Alethea is my BYC name and my personal name.

This  thread doesn't mention the pale pink as the other does. Should I put the pink away? I think a square is a square when it's a square and it's a squarte when it's a squarte.

I've never heard of such a thing.  But VERY COOL!
I'd like to be in on it.
Couple of questions : 6" granny squares (or squarts  tongue  ) in any spring-type of colors, using any pattern - right?
How do we know how many we have to make?
Do all of mine have to be the same?  Or can I use a bizillion different patterns/colors?

This is going to be FUN  wee
