I love reading about everyone's themes and surprises!! It makes it so exciting wondering what's going to be made!

I have gotten nothing done all week!!  I love when hubby is home  but good grief I get nothing done for crafting!

He just left so today should be productive!

Me and Pizzacravings actually have a very structured swap going on and it's great the amount of details that we've given each other, I think!  It's kind of a magic theme, including such things as fairy tales, mythical creatures, celtic lore, gypsy stuff, etc.  Which is perfect because we met when she wandered into the gallery for my very first swap, the fairies/fairytales & folklore swap and she quickly became a part of our little group of friends, which we all still chat on a seperate site on almost a daily basis.  We've been in a handful of swaps together but never got paired up, so I was really excited when she asked me and then she suggested this theme and I was all over it, going back to where I started in a way and also a theme that she missed out on. 

I can't wait to see everything that everyone comes up with for all the different themes and surprises!    This is so much fun!

aroze and I are going to do a "project a week" papercraft swap. We'll be doing:

Week one: 9 inchies
Week two: 1 Chunky House
Week three: 5x5 art piece
Week four: small tin shrine
Week five: a surprise
Week six: (because we both love goodies!) $25 in supplies

We'll send them all at once, but we thought if we did one project every week, we could both keep on track. So far, though, I don't think either of us has started.

Jenicat and I didn't pick a theme. We just picked a points amount and are stalking and such to get ideas. I specifically asked her for a viking stuffie for my hubby though, and she specifically asked for a poppet. Other than that it has been a blast stalking and crafting.

That's a great idea!

I have a completely random theme-less craft till you drop thing going on with elociNNicole we've been discussing amounts as we go so no one feels sad at the end.

With BroknWingz she specifically asked for a poppet and we decided on a points/size amount for the rest.

I'm having a blast!  I almost finished BroknWingz poppet last night.  She is beautiful.  I have some finishing touches I need to work.  Now I need to dress that nekkid chick!

I have one thing done for Jloveg, another 50% done and I have the fabric for deadbathducky's main item! sooo pretty.

As far as I know, my theme with OneRedBoot seems to be "stuff we really like/want/need that we could totally make for ourselves, but never actually do."  Oh, and we're supposed to work from our stashes as much as possible.

and with digital misfit, the theme is something like "mind-numbingly awesome stuff."  In which she knows I'm knitting her a shrug, and I know she's making a poppet for me, but everything else is up in the air.  I got the pattern for her shrug last night!!  I'm really excited to cast on, but I'll probably end up waiting until Monday or so.

That's it exactly!  I'm having such fun crafting for you--we have similar tastes, so it's extra fun.  I can already see that it's going to be hard to part with some of these items--so I started to make two!    Except the curtains, haha!
