SoTTTs Clearing House - Duplicate and Wayward Exchange

[ConnieJean]

I am defining duplicate as the same two fabrics in one HST. Yes, there are two or three from the same person, but they are not the same fabrics. I also have 'half duplicates' where one of the fabrics is the same but the other fabric is different. I have about 63 duplicates to share and could pull more by keeping just one from a person who I received two or three from and/or the half duplicates. I want everyone to have as many as they sent. I sent 700 and received only one of my own back. Four of my duplicates are from Australia and one is from Switzerland. A few were from the unsigned group. I think the sorting team did a fantastic job and I am quite pleased with the assortment of HSTs I received. Do I need to give a detailed list by state or name of my duplicates? Thanks to everyone who has volunteered for any step in this process from beginning to now.

I have several HSTs from the same person, all the same fabrics---I'll go thru them all again tonight and write down all the duplicates. I really have many of them. My definition is more than 1 HST from the same person whether the fabrics are the same or not. I sent 617 HSTs and got back the same number. Mona80

OK Everyone - we are ready for an SOS. Susan (aka snflrz4u2) is 492 hsts short. I have her address and I am asking that anyone who was over (or just willing to help) message me directly with the amount you are willing to send. I will email you her mail address so you can send them to Susan directly.

Judging by past posts through out this exchange I can see that we are such a wonderfully generous group, I am sure we can get Susan her missing triangles.

Thank-you!

Wonderful serin10. I am a bit disappointed with the number of duplicates I recieved, with many from Australia and no other country. Please let me know more!!! I truly admire your courage to do this extra exchange. Wish I Iived closer to help. Bless you, Mona 80

Mine only contained HST's from the USA. All 615 of mine. I'm from Canada. I would like to exchange with some of the 'international' members. ....Doreen

Hi Serin -
I'm happy to tell you that I received many of your HSTs, but you mixed up the fabrics, so I only got a few fabric repeats. I was about 22 short. However, I do have lots of doubles and triples and +++ more. If you need any, just ask. A few members have contacted me personally and we're taking care of that. Thank you for doing this.

DOREEN - I just sent you a personal email. I may be able to help you!

We have managed to gather 444 hsts for Susan. We only need 48 more. I know several of you have very generously offered to make more but I believe that these triangles had to have gone somewhere. If I have not received offers to help with the last 48 I'll contact those that have offered to make more. You really are a very generous group of quilters.

Now that Susan is almost taken care of, I would like to ask people who are under or over to message me and tell me how much so I can try to match people up. If the people who are under could also include your mailing address I will forward that along to your match. (This information will also be posted on page 1).

Thank-you all very much for your willingness to help.

I have been lovingly going through my HST’s; they are all beautiful, beautiful and beautiful. Thank you one and all for your HST’s.

Of the 615 I received, I had quite a few duplicates (10 and above, with a 18 from IL and a 22 from NJ) but I can live with that, it really doesn’t bother me in the slightest.

The only thing I am disappointed about is that all of them are from the USA (42 states) and one from Canada. I would really love to receive one from the rest of the International members (they are International to us as well) Australia, Canada, Germany, New Zealand, Switzerland etc, etc.

I don't know if this is the right forum :? but I will post it in another one as well

How did this happen??? How could someone be short sooo many HSTs??? Does not make any sense to me. Mona80

[scottishquilter]

Mona - if you go to page 8, third from the bottom of Wayward and Adoptable hsts the explaination is there, (but I haven't worked out how to put in the link)
Cheers
