Luvachicken Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 Almost that time of year again I was wondering if I could organise the swap again. I have no idea where the rules have gone though but thought I'd start the ball rolling. If you'd like to join in let me know. On the list so far is Me, Luvachicken Not sure how the list is going to work as we can longer edit previous posts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plum Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 Got a bit of time to answer properly. It's a craft swap to secret partners. We make an item any media to our best efforts. Any level so complete beginners or those with more experience. There's usually knitted, crocheted and sewn items but has also included candles, paintings, glass or tin sculpture and card making. Anything really. Food has been included in the past. Are you going to join in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alis girls Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 You wouldnt want anything I'd made Plum. Sounds fun just not got the time. Probably 2019. No making excuses my head isnt in a good place for crafting. Now I can offer a moody teenage boy , and elderly cat - the list is endless.

soapdragon Posted October 6, 2018 Share Posted October 6, 2018 Actually, Patricia I was wondering about joining in this year! I made some Christmas things last year out of wood from our garden and we had some branches lopped from our silver birch in May that I have kept out on the patio, under cover to season. If I can find someone with a chop saw I may be in business. How many things do we need to send and what is the deadline? I've no idea how it all works?

Patricia W Posted October 6, 2018 Share Posted October 6, 2018 I’m new too so don’t ask me! I think I may know a man with a saw. But discuss by pm as it’s meant to be secret........ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cat tails Posted October 6, 2018 Share Posted October 6, 2018 I think I might have some silver birch lying around too! Deadline will probably be the beginning of december, so we can all open our presents on Christmas day. Look at the previous posts on Christmas swaps to get an idea on what/how much to make. You can always bulk up with some choccies! I’ll see if I can find some of the previous posts for you gals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plum Posted October 6, 2018 Share Posted October 6, 2018 No don't discuss by pm I won't know what's happening We just make an item for one person that's allocated to us. Something out of wood sounds fun and would be great. Sometime Luvachicken will give a date for signing up by and then will allocate someone to you and give us a deadline to get it posted by. Not everyone in UK so it has to be a bit earlier. We usually try and keep cost of postage down but some like to include a little extra like some drink sachets, chocolate or one easter I was sent a couple of dozen chicks.
