Free Swatch Day is humming along and will be live until noon tomorrow (EST, or GMT -4 :00).
As of 5pm we've given away about 1,500 swatches since noon (still to be printed — yikes!) and earned $500 for Heifer International, which is enough to buy… a heifer!
Great work so far, folks! Don't forget to pop over and vote for your favorite tractor fabrics while you are here.

Kelly,
We're hoping to post a sort of wrap-up video, along the lines of the one we posted last year, but it probably won't happen until Monday. The total number of swatches we gave away was around 3,500, and the total donation for Heifer.org came to $1200, enough to buy six goats and six pigs! And yes, the Spoonflower crew is at work right now printing and packing the mountain of swatches. It will be a busy weekend. Very glad to hear that you and others enjoyed the idea.

Am I the only one still holding my breath to hear the grand totals? You said on Twitter you’d post them later yesterday afternoon… I’m excited to hear how many swatches and (more importantly) how many cows, llamas, water buffalos, ducks, geese….? Or are you completely buried under a mountain of swatches?
Such a cool thing you and Heifer have done, thanks so much!
Stephen
It’s Friday morning and we’re up to four water buffalo for Heifer! 3 hours to go.

Up to $750 for Heifer so far… enough to buy five llamas!
