Hi guys!  I've already got a few signups...  I can't wait to get started! 
Oh and I added a "Favourite" thing, it came to me today after I made the questionnaire...  Favourite quote!  Cause I know I'd love a shirt that says "They were a little bit... bitey..." 
So if the ones who've already sent me their questionnaires have quotes of their own, just send em and I'll add them to your list!  Thanks!

BRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAINS..... .

Man I can't wait to sink my undead teeth into these crafts!

[kairichan]

wee!! I can't wait for this to start!! ^^

[deathtosweatpants]

Only 3 more days until signups end!  We've only got 7 people so far, but I don't care!  This should be so fun!

[lilliputt]

Heeeey, i just thought of a question...
Since we have an odd number of people, do you think this will turn into one of those circular-type swaps where you craft for one person but receive from a different person or do you think it will be a two-way (give and receive w/ same person)? 
If one person needs to double up I may be able to do that, but both people may receive very similar things.  I have quite a few ideas, but can't sew right now (no machine), which limits me....




That was long-winded.  Sorry!

[deathtosweatpants]

hhmmmmm...  good question.  I personally prefer crafting for and receiving from the same person, so I would be inclined to say someone would double up (it will be me).  But if you guys would rather do a circular one, that would be ok too.  we'll see!

[Silly]

Hey, I just finished my first swap and haven't recieved feedback, although I know my buddy recieved her item.  I'm dying (no pun intended, but HILARIOUS all the same) to participate in this swap having just finished rewatching Shaun of the Dead not 15 minutes ago and feeling suddenly in the mood for all things zombie.

I assume I'll be getting feedback soon, can I still send you my info?  Just to make sure I can participate?  I already have some ideas brewing...

[deathtosweatpants]

Sure, Silly!  Just PM me your info and please let your organiser for that swap know that you need the feedback to be in this swap... just in case!  (I checked what you sent too, good job!)

[lilliputt]

Aha!  Apparently we may not have to worry about odd numbers of people, if Silly joins!
However, I think I would also like to do the two-way/one-partner thing.  It seems like it would make things easier communication-wise.
Man, I'm getting antsy in my pantsy (Super Troopers, anyone?) for this to start....
