Title of Swap: The UNthemed Themed Swap #2
Swap Hostess: Tuesday
Sign-up date range: Thru Mar. 9
Ship by Date: March 31

Limited to a certain number of people? (optional): No, but larger sign ups will be divided into even, smaller groups @ 5-7 participants

Swap Organizer will check each participant to make sure they meet these conditions:
- Has posted at least 100 times
- Does not have any negative feedback on the sewing swap forum

Details of swap:

The theme of this swap is UNthemed. That's right...there is no theme. This swap gives you creative freedom to send whatever your heart desires...no limits (just keep in mind we all have kids in the house LOL)

In this swap you will make multiples of one item, send them to me, the hostess for division and packaging of groups.

This swap is limited to at least partially HAND MADE items.

This swap is NOT LIMITED to sewn items...can be crochet, knit, crafts, cards, soaps, etc. etc.

No holiday items please.

Also, some of us live in different countries, so let's avoid nationalistic items too. ROFL

Other than that...let's have a BLAST!!! Show your creative side. This is a GREAT swap for beginners that want to attempt something at their own comfort level.

**The dollar value for the items should be around 7 to 10 dollars.

Let's not post pictures so it's all a suprise!

PLEASE READ THE GUIDELINES FIRST for participation restrictions.

If you want to participate, information to send to the hostess:

Ok - twist my arm, I'm in! :)
My craft area is almost clean enough to clutter it with creativity again. lol!

Like I said, I'm in.

Now I just need some inspiration on what to make........

Chole

Tuesday-How do I know how many items to make? Also, is this just a mama swap or is it a kids swap too? I haven't done a swap on here for ages. At SM we do 5,10 or 15 items and it is seperated mama or kids. Please lmk, I'd like to join but wanna know before I commit. Thanks mama! :)

It's for mamas, because it gets too hard to divide the kids ages ;)

I'm doing groups of up to 7 participants, so, assuming we get 7 in a group, you'll send 6 items. But, last time, we had 4 in the swap, so we sent 3...just depends on how many we can get in here :D

Shall I add you? :D

You can add me but will you lmk how many? I'll PM you my info :)

<Smooches> m'kay ;)

I would like to join:)

I will join in.

I'd like to join!:)

Okay, that's one group :D I started a second group...however, if there's only 2 or 3 more to join, and I can get two groups of 5, I'll divide that way, so don't start making a certain number of items until sign ups close on the 9th ;) if you don't want to have leftovers LOL

Okay, we have a group...a nice full one at that :D...This is going to be fun! Since there are 7 of us, each of us need to make 6 items, and then send them to me...PM me when you are ready for my addy :D

Tuesday,
Do you want us to label who the item goes to or just who created it?

sorry Sonya, I'm sucking at keeping up on the boards <sigh>

If you could label them, that would be GREAT and help when I sort.

Does anyone need an extension? I don't mind extending past this weekend if anyone needs it :D

not me. Everything is ready & waiting. I just have to get off my duff & hit the PO already.

These just get sent to your regular addie right, Tuesday (same one as from the pringles swap?)

Chole

Yes, Chole, same addy :D

Mailed mine today :)

Tuesday, mine are all completed and ready to go. Unfortunately have have been struck down with both the flu and with strep (lab test confirmed), and am not yet in enough shape to get to the PO. Dh works next door to a PO and can get it there by Monday. Is that okay? Or should I send him tomorrow?

Okay Ladies,
I'm sorry - mine will be late. I've got them half completed, but I had the mailing date confused.

Mine were mailed today!

OMGosh, Tuesday I am sooo sorry! I swear the deadline was April 6th!!! Please PM me your addy and I can get my stuff out tomorrow or Wednesday! I'm adding something extra in for my airhead delay!! I'm sooo sorry, I misread and thought it was ship by April 6th!

I forgot I signed up for this. I'm sorry I didn't sub to the thread and just read through here and saw that I'm on the list. I have nothing made and I'm sorry.

Okay gals, I'm sorry I haven't been around to respond...but, we finally got a house to rent lined up so I will now be able to relax ;) Kimmy, just do the best you can, and I'll PM my addy in a bit.

Allison, I just got your PM, and I'm going to reply to it right now.

Would anyone object to moving the ship date up until after Easter for mamas that need a little extra time? :D Maybe the 12th?

I have already starting recieving some (AWESOME!!!) boxes, so I want to try my best to accomodate everyone :D

Tuesday could you or someone pm me your address so I can mail my stuff in tomorrow.

I sent mine out today priority mail. Thanks for waiting for me. This is my first swap like this so I hope my project is okay.

just an update ;)
I've got another package this weekend, and one more package that I'm waiting for, I believe it was already sent, though, so I'm sure it'll be here soon. Depending on how big that mama's item is, I'm thinking we should be able to fit everything into a flat rate envelope. So shipping will be around 4.05, then delivery confirmation an additional 30 cents I think? I'll double check once I'm ready to ship them. So, as soon as that last package arrives, I'll toss them all in envelopes :D

You mamas made some AWESOME items.

Great, thanks Tuesday!
