Chunky Book page swap!

[FishStikks]

What is this "housework" you speak of 

I love the idea of doing this and of course, you can count me in!

OY your cute little zettis are so fun to look at.

With Racky's help, I've come up with a way to organize this swap.

It will be somewhat like the tip-in with a twist swap:

• I'll have sign-ups open for a week or 10 days
• Partners will be assigned every two weeks, and sends will be every two weeks
• Send dates will be on the off-weeks of the tip-in swap
• You will be able to opt out of a round if you need/want to
• You will be able to drop out at any point after your packages are received if you need/want to

I'm thinking that I might open sign-ups February 4, with the first send on February 27.  What do you all think?

That sounds good to me...right after the end of the Inchie swap!

[Queen Of Fools]

Me, too! 

Also, I saw some 4x4 chipboard coasters on Ebay for $3.50 (15 to a pack, includes shipping).  Just in case, like me, you are too lazy to make your own

great idea!!  I'm more cheap than lazy, so will be using up my stash of free mat board that I got from the frame shop

[FishStikks]

I've got lots of "stuff" to cut mine from  .
I still haven't worked up my nerve to hit up the frame shop yet  .

I like the idea of working this around the tip-in. Count me in!

My DH will be mad with me (but not surprised at all  ) for this but...Im in. I have an overflowing crafting list right now (2 'pirate'stlye coats inc pockets & lining to wing, 1 bead instruction kit, 1 cross-stitch kit 1/2 done, exploring ATC's etc etc AND a quilting craftalong that is 2 mothns behind)  as well as wanting to play my DH & I's MMO and single player games  - but, what the heck I fancy trying this 

I might only manage a few rounds but we shall see - is mixed media/fabric/beading acceptable? I can back the fabric onto heavy card if that is preferable.

[Katxena]

Any media will be acceptable -- drawing, beading, fabric, collage, paint, stamping -- whatever you can do will be perfect.

I'm glad you are in bushbaby!

Told my DH - he did the Monty Python "are you insane" impression before saying he wouldnt have me any other way!  - Ahoy there captain. Crafting stress ahead. Full steam as she goes!!

[OriginalYouth]

WOW!  Bushbaby has MAD embroidery and messenger bag skillz!
