Goosey Lucy Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 (edited) Hi everyone, thanks for your patience I've jiggled about with the dates suggested by Plum, I hope that's ok with everyone. This Crafty Swap has a theme of Autumn. I need names to me by Friday 28th September. I'll give you your swap names on/by Sunday 30th September. Addresses will be sent out to you by Monday 28th October. Swaps need to be sent to arrive no later than Friday 8th November. Names of those taking part are: bluekarin purple hen Chuckmum6 Couperwife Craftyhunnypie Jennifer Jane Plum Ms Marple Goosey Lucy Egluntyne Please make sure you get a proof of posting certificate when you send your swap and if you can post photos of the gift you receive, that would be great. I'll happily post photos for people if you're struggling with Photobucket (and who doesn't struggle with Photobucket? ) Information about Crafty swaps can be found here Lucy Edited September 26, 2013 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ms Marple Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 Hi Goosey, Can you put back the dates a little please? I am on inspection week this week and then it is only 3 weeks to half term when I am away for two weeks. So not enough time for me and with posting being Nov 1st too. If it's not possible then I will have to opt out. Sorry to be a nuisance. Terri Not supposed to be here now- should be prepping for my meeting with one of them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plum Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 If you get my name I'm fine with a late arrival. Don't suppose it matters if we put it back but then we wouldn't have time for a Christmas one which more people join in with. We could run them together of course What do the rest of you think?

Goosey Lucy Posted September 27, 2013 Author Share Posted September 27, 2013 I've pushed back the date swaps should be received by to Friday November 8th, I hope this will be okay with everyone. As Plum pointed out if it goes any later it is likely to have an impact on any Christmas swap. If anyone else wants to join in, please let me know by tomorrow. Thanks, Lucy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goosey Lucy Posted September 30, 2013 Author Share Posted September 30, 2013 No worries bluekarin! Okay, everyone has received their recipient's name, nearer the swap time I'll contact you all again asking for your address. I haven't got any addresses from previous swaps so please bear with me. If you find that life is getting in the way of making your gift, please don't hesitate to get in touch with me as the Autumn Swap Fairy will work his/her/their magic. Happy Crafting!

bluekarin Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 For a change I actually know what I am making instead of leaving it until the last minute and then panic making I have an important component part to buy and then crafting away! Our half term is in a weeks time too. We have a bonus day off as the kids schools are closed today, or it is to them but not the years 7's, and as a plus the weather is gorgeous!

craftyhunnypie Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 About to pack mine in the prettiest way I can think of, To be posted tomorrow. Wanted to keep for me as I loved the colours. But I can make another for me & fiddle & faff again making another one of the bits to go with it. All will become clear soon! Got itchy fingers now to make something else, as it has kept me amused at night with the fire lit & telly on in the background.

Jennifer Jane Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 Finished mine! Just need to package it up & post it. As usual, how I imagined it and how it turned out are two entirely different things. Also I had to simplify design as I ran out of time (i.e. didn't start early enough ). I hope the recipient won't mind too much - I would be happy with it, but I am easily pleased good for my swapee!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goosey Lucy Posted November 4, 2013 Author Share Posted November 4, 2013 Posted mine today Quick reminder to everyone, please send your items asap now as they should be with your recipient by Friday. Please try and post a photo of your gift when you open it, it's lovely to see what everyone has been making. Lucy x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
