Details of swap:
Calling all X-Men fans! With the release of the 3rd movie, I'm sure there are craftsters just iching to express their X-Men love. Have a secret or not so secret love for Wolverine, Nightcrawler, or Beast? This is the place for you. Totes, t-shirts, crazy stuffies, nerdy housewares, the list of possibilites goes on and on. The swap was initially proposed in reference to the movies, but fans of the comics are also welcome (though you should realize that most participants will probably be movie fans first and foremost). Here are some related websites:
http://www.x-menthelaststand.com/http://www.x2-movie.com/splash.htmlhttp://www.uncannyxmen.net/Each person should plan on making at least one big project (requiring more time) and two to three small projects.
FYI, I'm at work Monday-Friday 9-5 EST so I won't be here to answer PMs then. But I will check craftster before and after work (assuming it's not down). If you want to participate, information to send to organizer:
