Sensational Strippers Exchange

[Needleware]

Welcome Sensational Strippers!!! We now have our own Forum page. I am posting the rules again here to keep everything together.

The rules for this exchange are simple as no sewing is involved.

1. The strips must be quilt shop quality batik with no obvious right or wrong side of the fabric.
2. All strips must be 1 1/2" wide and approximately 22" long. This will allow you to use fat quarters or cut a full width of fabric strip in half. This size will work with all of the quilts in Edyta's Friendship Strips and Scraps book - if you want to make a pattern using 1 1/4" wide strips you can cut them down.
3. Minimum of 25 strips and a maximum of 200.
4. NO more than 10 strips of the same fabric
5. You must sign up by February 28th.
6. The strips are due to me by April 30th. I will let you know when I start sorting and when the packages are back in the mail.
7. Send me an email and I will send you my address.

MAILING INSTRUCTIONS

1. Fold the strips in 4ths, sort the strips by colorway and put the total # of strips and your Name and email address on the bags.
2. On the outside of the mailing envelope, put your screen name and the total number of strips enclosed.
3. Include a self addressed envelope with the postage needed to send the strips back to you.
4. Put your name and address in both the "mail to" and "return to" sections of the return envelope, that way the package will not come back to me, but will be delivered to you.
5. Send me an email when you mail them and I will let you know when they have arrived.

Happy Stripping, :wink:

Yea!! Barb, will it make your sorting any easier if we fold the individual strips a certain way? Maybe in 4ths instead of stacking them all together before we fold them?

To send Barb an e-mail, just click on the little envelope icon just below her profile photo to the right of her post.

[Needleware]

Yes - in 4ths would be great!

Since there is no paper involved, I will be able to see the strips. I plan on sorting them into groups by the main color so everyone will get back a good variety of colors.

How do I pay for the postage for the return of my envelope. I live in Australia. I think I can only by Australian stamps here, which is no good to send for the return postage from America. Can I pay by paypal the amount it cost me to post from Australia. Gosh this sounds jumbled, hope you can understand. LOL.

[Needleware]

I've already signed up & emailed Barbara.
You can buy strip collections...but what fun is that??
Am excited about this exchange with all you wonderful Sensational Strippers!

[Lorchen]

I never thought that I would get the opportunity to be a stripper. This simply can't be ignored. So count me in!

But I'll have to find a way to cover the cost. I'm in the UK, and I don't do PayPal. But there is always a way.
