dear swap partner…
I am so excited to have gotten a spot in the 9th round of the Doll Quilt Swap! Yay! And I believe that I owe my swap partner a little bit of info about my likes and dislikes…so here it is!
Hi Swap Partner!
First, I want to thank you for taking the time to make something for me that I am sure is going to be awesome. I can’t wait to see it!
Second, I know that I have been terrible about really getting my likes and dislikes out there. I do have some favorites in my flickr photostream, but I never did a mosaic and I don’t have any info in my flickr profile and I don’t even remember what I put on my DQS9 sign up sheet! So- sorry about that! I am now sharing this info with you just in case you aren’t sure what to do. However- if you are already inspired with a fantastic idea- please go with it! I do not want to deter you from a path that you are excited about!
I find it so hard to narrow down what I like! There are so many things out there that I wouldn’t think that I would like, but I love! So, I am going to try. But just because I don’t say it here, doesn’t mean that I won’t like it. I can say that I don’t like things that are super busy. My favorite colors are pink (probably a fuchsia-y pink) and I like purple. I like aqua and other light blues. Spring green is great. I guess I don’t like really dark colors or neon colors. But I like bright and saturated colors. I like wonky, I like straight lines, I like appliqued stuff and I like embroidered quilt. I haven’t really done much of either (well- no embroidery yet) but I would like to get some experience in both at some point! I like the quilts that are like little pictures, and I like the ones that are more traditional designs (in more modern colors). I always hear people talking about fabrics that are civil war reproductions- not really sure what these look like, but they don’t sound like ones that I would be into. 
I am also fairly certain that Little Helper (my 2.5 year old daughter) is going to claim this as hers. And it will be loved by her and her babies, no matter what it looks like! And if she is happy, I am happy. (I know- cheesy, but I am a mom! And that is really how I feel!)
So…have fun! And I am so excited to see what you create!!
