well, there's two of us signed up...lol 

[Kenners]

I'm working on it 

Its a slow day at work so I should get chance to fill out my application form between angry phone calls!

[sorcha.ni]

I'm interested too, but this'd be my first swap. Would that be ok?

Also, if there's the possibility of making costume pieces for people, shouldn't the questionaire have something about what sizes  participants wear (or would that come later?)

[Kenners]

Woo Yay I'm in!

I've just started organising a Middle East/North Africa Inspired Swap, I'll mention this one over in that thread to see if I can drum up some more interest.

You are more then welcome to join.

As for sized I will leave that to the partners to discuss with eachother once everyone is paired up. Some people are not okay with sharing their clothing size or measurements and I didn't want to impose on other people's feelings.

this looks interesting...

I used to belly dance (long ago) but I don't know enough to tell what style or anything. I remember the steps but the body is not so willing as it used to be...

I am going to think about it.

Ronda
Blessings!

Ah man, all these great swap ideas!  I'm still tied up in my first swap til Sept 27th. 

Anyone interested in a personal swap.  I make "beer-bellydancing" belts and accessories.    (mieljolie.blogspot. com/2008/06/beer-belly-dancing-belts.html)  I make chain/coin belts, too.  I will try to post some pics on my blog.

I would definitely be interested in doing a personal swap with you!, but with all the swaps I'm in now, it would have to wait until the end of September if that's alright!
