Item Specific Exchanges.

Each item will have groups of 3 or 4 (if there's an odd number, for instance..7 want to participate, there'd be a group of 3 and a group of 4) participants. If there are only two signs ups, I'll ask each person privately if they'd be interested in a person to person swap and go from there.

How it's going to work:
Please don't sign up for more than you can REASONABLY finish. These are going to be in constant rotation, so you can always catch one later if you can't swing it right now.

Sign up for the item(s) you want to exchange. For examples sake, lets use pants.

You will make two pairs of pants (according to your group member's preferences). You will send one to each person. In return you will recieve two in return (one from each of the other members).

Each exchange will have a 2 week deadline unless otherwise specified. If you think you will NEED more time than that, please EMAIL ME to discuss other arrangements (if there is a number that feel the same, the deadline will change). Email: tknolle@comcast.net

These exchanges are fast in comparison to some of the swaps, but you are only making for 2 others, and, this allows for frequent chances to participate in different swaps

Please reply to this post and list the exchange you want to participate in, your preferences (sizes, colors, diaper measurements if appropriate, other measurements you can supply, gender, do you want characters or none? Holiday prints or none? Just whatever is important to you...allergies, etc etc ) If you have questions before signing up, please email me with them ( tknolle@comcast.net )...I will send out the groups the day or so after sign up deadlines...I will post them in threads specific to each active exchange, it will be YOUR RESPONSIBILITY to contact each person in your group for thier mailing addresses.


If you feel like your swap is not working out, OR if you do not recieve your item within 10 days of the swap deadline (accounting for mailing delays) Please contact me privately...tknolle@comcast.net Please realize that there are different levels of sewing ability in this forum and keep in mind that we only get better with practice, so remember some may be refining their skills ;) But that doesn't mean their packages are less valuable. On the flip side, mamas, don't be discouraged by mamas whose abilities seem 'superior' to your own, we are all valuable sewing mamas and our stuff rocks, each and every ONE of us!! :D So don't hesitate to participate!!

YAY :D I think we'll just do any groups that have three or more sign up by the 23rd, if one of the groups don't have enough, then we'll just toss it and try again after the rotation deadline...I want all the groups to have the same start/end dates so that I don't have to try and keep up with ten different exchange groups LOL...so, any of those that you signed up for that end up with at least 3 participants, I'll put you in the group, just be aware that if there are two people signing up for all of those you listed, you'd be smooshed into the group, so you may want to watch and make sure you pull out of any that you may not want to try and particpate in, if that makes sense...LOL

Yes, they did finally get out yesterday. We had to leave town unexpectantly and then were gone longer than expected so I'm a week behind on something that was already late.
