Quilt Swaps and More Quilt Swaps

Quilt Swap Frenzy

Today, I decided to count my good wishes and squares. To date I have received 28 squares and 26 good wishes!!!! Each wish and square is unique, just as I hope the quilt will be.

One problem

I have become addicted to quilt swapping. Ask me how I know.

I am currently participating in the following swaps:

One on one swaps (Just like it reads. You send me one, I send you one)
China Province Swap (Includes facts about the different provinces and holidays in China within the good wish. Fabric represents an individual province or holiday.)
Pastel Swap (Easy one! Anything pastel color)
State Swap (Includes facts about each State in the USA within the good wish. Fabric represents an individual State)
February DTC "OHGWQ" Yahoo Swap (Easy one. Fabric can have any theme)

Swaps coming Up
March DTC "OHGWQ" Yahoo Swap (Easy one. Fabric can have any theme)

Finished Swaps
Adoption.com's, China Forum, 100 Good Wishes Swap

What's so funny?????????????

Stop laughing at me!!!!!!!!

All right. All right.

I am not the only one:) I emailed a member from one of the groups, who will remain anonymous, and told her this would be my last swap and that I had also promised Mike it would be. Well, she emailed me back to tell me she had just promised her husband the same thing.

I printed up the mailing lists for four of the swaps and using my keen observational skills noticed something remarkable. More than one person is particpating in at least three of the swaps.

The problem.

How can I keep track of what fabric I have already sent out to avoid sending someone the same fabric more than once.

It takes the skill of an organzier (Ha!)
Different Highlighters (Do-able)
Mulitple Printouts of Swaps Cross-referenced by Name. (Really)
Emails (To find out exactly what fabric I did send out)

A system not quite perfected but getting there. To date I have sent out 34 squares & wishes, and currently have 38 squares and wishes being prepared to be mailed out.

I was worried about what I would do while I waited?
