Do you mean The Six Swans by the Brothers Grimm?
There is a wonderful fairy tale website SurLaLune by Heidi Anne Heiner that
references many fairy tales. http://www.surlalunefairytales.com/
The link below is to a page on her website that has tales similar to The Seven
Swans.

Quoting Caryn Werlin <werlin@SCH.CI.LEXINGTON.MA.US>:
> I am trying to find the title of a tale a student remembers about seven
> brothers and one sister. The swans take the brothers and the sister must
> sew shirts from dew-flowers.
> It is not The seven ravens.
>
> Anyone recognize this?
>
> Many thanks!
