Our Gallery: http://www.craftster.org/forum/index.php?topic=133783.0

Swap name: Felt Mascot or Little Stuffie Swap
Craftster member who is organizing this swap: NovaStarlet
Backup Organizer: Stifflersmom
Sign-up date range: Nov 1st - Nov 7th
Date to send items by: On or before Nov 22nd

Keep in mind that Nov 23 is Thanksgiving, which for those of you outside of the US, means that all the mail traffic is going to sloooooooow doooooooown here. So it would probably be better to mail sooner than later.

Limited to a certain number of people? No

Restricted to people who all live in the same country? No

All ages allowed? Or 18+? All ages

Details of swap:

Participants will be sending:

-   One 6 inch or smaller felt mascot or little stuffie (medium)
-   Introduction card with the creature’s name and some stats
-   Little bonus item

If you want to make a larger item you can discuss it with your partner, as always. Introduction cards are just for fun and will give the creature’s name and some stats. For instance: birthplace, likes/dislikes, personality, super power, etc

The Bonus item is more of a wild card. It could be a random magnet or a couple of stickers. Or it could be something that you craft for your stuffie/mascot as a prop. It’s up to you - just something fun and dirt cheap.

If you want to participate, please fill out the following questionnaire completely and send it to NovaStarlet (organizer):

Signups are coming a long pretty well. Looks like we have a good group so far. 

If you pm your signup info to me, you should see the swap appear on your profile page as [In Progress] and your name should also be listed in the first post on this thread. Please let me know if I have missed you.

I'm really excited about connecting partners and getting started. This should be fun.

Aww. Don't be nervous. If you want to join, we are happy to have you. There are all different levels of skill in this swap. I, personally, only use patterns to make mine (so far) and have only been putting them together for a couple months. I'm a newbie myself.

Plus, there are tons of great tutorials on the board that can share patterns and walk you through the process if you want to give it a go.
