September Birthday Swap?

[DIY ho]

Since next week is the last full week (!) of August, I thought I'd see if there's any interest in a September birthday swap? It would work the same as this month's round; the link is in my sig.  

I really like the idea of the birthday swaps, and I'd like to keep them going, if there's any interest!

[Riechan]

I would love a november birthday swap :p but that's still al ong time isn't it? :p

[littlebiskit]

I'm a september birthday, I would sign up!  As long as the committment isn't TOO huge!

[Jenicat]

I have a September birthday, but I need to read up on the rules of this type of swap. 

I've seen the past galleries though and it sounds fun.

As long as I get to be paired with littlebiskit. 

[DIY ho]

Good to hear there's some interest!

In this type of swap, you aren't paired with a partner. Everyone posts a list, and claims are made that way. You can check out August's swap page for the exact rules.

[Jinkies]

Hmmm, I may need to pull myself away from Christmas gift swapping to be selfish and get something for me!!!

[DIY ho]

I'll probably be starting this up when I get a minute this week! If not, this weekend definitely!

[Jenicat]

Right, duh... sorry   I have viewed past galleries... don't know where my brain went!

[thekster]

Ooh I'm a September baby! *squeals* I'll have to check out the requirements but I think I'd like to sign up.

[Kookaloo_Starr]

I have a September birthday and would be interested, I took part last year but think the rules have changed since.....I'll check out your August swap 

[DIY ho]

Turns out I'm probably not going to have the time to organize this. If anyone else wants to, feel free! I'd probably join.

[lilyla19]

Oh, too bad... I want to join a September swap.

A September baby here too.

[DeviSaya]

I'd also be interested. Anyone up for organizing this one?

[MareMare]

I could organize, but not participate because I am at my max. I wonder if that's allowed? I'll post the question on the discussion board and if it's ok I'll set it up.

[MareMare]

Ok, I guess I am maxed out and can't organize. I did ship something out friday for the Aug bday swap, so I possibly could get feedback for that monday or tuesday. If anybody is still interested in this swap then I could pick it up, but if someone else can organize in the meantime that is great.

[DIY ho]

I did get a PM from someone who might be interested in organizing. I don't want to say who in case she decides not to do it, though. Hopefully one of you can take September.

She's decided not to. It would be her first organizing gig, and won't work out this month. So if you're still up for it Maremare, I'll join when you can get it going. I'll get your feedback up as soon as I can for August.

[MareMare]

Cool beans, I checked late tonight (monday night lol) and po says it was delivered, so just have to hear from her that she actually got it!

[MareMare]

I know it's like halfway through the month but I went ahead and started this swap up! 

[Kookaloo_Starr]

oh cool  Thanks Maremare!

[littlebiskit]

Thanks Mare!  I feel like a total punk for chickening out on organizing, but I went and signed up already.

[DIY ho]

Yay for Maremare, saving the day!

[MareMare]

~CHANGE IN RULES~

I am going to make a change, instead of me sending out addresses, I'm gonna have you get the address directly from the person you are claiming, just like in the Ongoing Wishlist Swap. All the claims from today I will go back and send out all the addresses, but after that you can get it straight from them.

Remember, when you make a claim, send the pm to both me and the person you are claiming! In that pm you can also request their address info.

 

[DIY ho]

Wonderful idea!

[MareMare]

Wonderful idea!

I was getting confused when I had 10 minutes to sneak online at work and update stuff!

[DeviSaya]

I thought I understood this part, but now I'm not too sure. If a birthday swapper receive something, do they have to send at least as many things as they received or at least one TOTAL no matter how many they receive?

[Kookaloo_Starr]

My understanding is that as a birthday swapper you just have to send once, but it's always nice if you can do more 

[DeviSaya]

Yah, I planned on doing more than one, just wanted to make sure what the exact rules were. ^_^

[MareMare]

Yep, each birthday swapper is required to send at least once.

[LeapFeetFirst]

I just joined! I hope I did my first claim right- I've never done a birthday swap before.

[littlebiskit]

So, my sendby date falls on a Sunday.  I'm going to try my hardest to ship it on the Saturday before, but there is a chance it will ship on the 29th.  Is that okay?

Yep, that's fine, just let me know!   

[angrykittymeowmeow]

lol Of course NOW I stumble upon this swap, now that September is almost over.  My birthday was 9/3 & my bf's was 9/8.  YAY for Virgos in love!  I think a virgo is one of the few signs that can tolerate a Virgo lol 

[DeviSaya]

I'm pretty sure its not too late for you guys to sign up.

[MareMare]

You can sign up all month long! Through the last day of the month.   

[lilyla19]

I would probably send a little late.

Is that alright?

[MareMare]

Is that alright?

Your send by date for ThatsWhatSheSaid is Oct 5, if you can't send then, around that date please pm me and your partner and let us know when you will be sending. If you can send on time that would be awesome since it has to go international, but I know stuff comes up!

By the way lilyla19, I just finished sewing your clutch, and I love it! I am going to have to make one for me in different colors!   

[lilyla19]

Oh, wow..
That's quick. *is getting excited*


I'm not too sure if I'm going to finish it on time. I'll try my best though.
