Description:

You've gotta love inchies, itty-bitty pieces of art that they are. รขโ„ขยฅ Inchies are 1" squares, and should be somewhat sturdy - heavy cardstock, chipboard, whatever. Check out Flickr for some gorgeous inspiration!

For this series of swaps, you will have two (2) partners and send each partner six (6) inchies - one dozen (12) inchies total. You can make each set the same, or make completely different inchies for each partner. Theme and medium are up to you - sender's choice!

No need to write any info on the back unless you're so inclined.

I suggest lightly securing your inchies to an ATC-sized cardstock blank or something, just to keep them intact in transit instead of bouncing around loose and risking damage. (I tape mine to an ATC blank with a looped-over strip of masking tape on the back and put them in an ATC sleeve. Easy to remove, but strong enough to keep them on the card until they arrive.)

My swaps are open to members in good standing - no recent ones or threes, please. Newbies are welcome as well, provided profiles are well-filled. All profiles will be checked before partners are assigned, and I will ban if need be.

PLEASE remember to include your name and the swap name with your inchies, so your partner knows who to thank and rate! Don't forget to rate your partner!

Any questions or concerns - please do PM me or comment here! รขโ„ขยฅ

I had so much fun with this! I never made inchies before and I am hooked! I hope my partners like what I made.

I'm glad. :) It's amazing how addictive they are, isn't it?

I have been parking my butt on the sofa with inchies on my days off. I just keep making them. I am particularly fond of making sewn inchies, even though they take 25-60min each ><

If you ever want to do a private inchies swap, I'm game. ;) I did cross-stitched inchies for the first time for a private swap I just finished, and I'm happy with how they came out. :D
