Postcard Exchange and Quilters Trading Card Exchange-Group of over 100 people from all over the world gather online to exchange fabric postcards.  Most of the swaps are between 3-6 people, members can sign up for as many or as few swaps as they like. Several themes are offered each month.  We just had our 1 year anniversary so we are an established exchange group (this is my group).

 

Fiber Art Traders

A totally awesome group!  I have been a member for a year or so.  Love it.  They exchange dolls, charms, postcards, mini-quilts, hats, fibers, eye masks, book pages and just a ton more.  Just about anything small enough to fit into an envelope.  A very well organized and fun environment.  Below are some of the goodies I have made to exchange in Fiber Art Traders.

 

Storage Boxes

I participate in so many exchanges that I can't always display all of the beautiful art received so I like to store my fiber art in either Archival boxes or clear boxes to preserve the beauty of the pieces.  I really like clear boxes so I can see what is inside.

 

 

Fiber Frenzy Mixed Media Cards

Fiber Frenzy Exchange- we mailed 3-5 yards of a fiber to the people on our list.  I made these cards to hold my fibers.  The base of the card is cardstock and then the next layer is a color print out of a photo that I took of some of the fibers.  On top of that layer is an artist trading card and some bottle cap stamps that spell out "Fiber Frenzy"

Eye Mask by Allison Ray

One of the first exchange I did with FAT (fiber art traders) it was a 1-1 eye mask exchange.  The one I received is awesome.  Looks lit it was made from bridal fabric and has beautiful lace and embellishemnts.

Bottlecap Pin Cushions

Bottle Cap Pin Cushions- really easy to make and so much fun to embellish.  Great way to recycle bottle caps and bits of fabrics and felt.

dottie dolls

Dottie Dolls- they are approximately 4-6 inches and can be made into any shape.

Fiber Puzzle Pieces

Puzzle Pieces Exchange- mine were made from felt.

Inchie Pin

VIP Inchie Pin- a 1-1 swap where your partner mailed you a photo and you were to add it to the inchie pin somehow.
