Sweat Shoppe Swap Round 21 (signups closed) (send by Dec 14)

[Disco Queen Highness]

I've never seen wool dryer balls.  Do they work like the plastic ones I see in stores?  I've been wanting to try them forever.

[lapoli]

Yes, exactly! They  bounce around in the dryer and help eliminate static electricity and wrinkles.   (And they work!)

[Disco Queen Highness]

Ahhh, I'm definately requesting those puppies.

my All Natural Necklaces:

they are wooden pendants on leather lace. the colours aren't perfect in the pictures, but they're as close as i could manage. as always, i'll give each of my requesters 3/4 top choices and try to make everyone as happy as possible. (and i made a lot of blue, as blue generally seems to be a favourite colour)


black&grey, mustard, kakhi


coral(it's more orange in rl), fuschia, plum (more purple in rl)


teal(i have two), light blue, navy blue

[guacaMolly]

checkbook covers, fabric napkins/coasters, wall hangings, patchwork stockings, homemaker set---- yes please! 

As soon as I get a slot available and some things made up I'll be joining, I may have to offer 10 items this time!

Would anyone be interested in poppy hair pins? I've been playing around with them lately, they are a lot of fun and flower/bead choices are practically endless.

I didn't make these, but this is the idea:

I always love things for my hair

[TheSapphireMoon]

I love the giant red poppies in that 2nd link.

TOTALLY would want a stocking!!!  Those ROCK!

Here is a pic I posted of my mini wall hanging in the last round.  I ended up not making them as there seemed to be SO much interest in the set of bumpy bead bracelets I made that I ended up making 2 sets of them as they took way less time.  These are about 6x6 or so, square, machine appliqued.  I would choose a variety of subject matter.



Sorry the color is kind-of OFF....I took this at night, then edited it and the colors look a bit wonky.  Will definitely be taking shots of the ones I offer (if I do these) in NATURAL light

[Ruby Copperhead]

That stocking is lovely!
I must say I love every thing that has been suggested in this thread, really everything! I will have to think of 10 items I can offer, so I have a chance to get as many cool items as possible!

lapoli, don't worry! From what I have seen I'd say it is technically impossible to make something that noone wants in this swap and I love the dryer balls.
What is the detergent scented with? And what is the yellow stuff on top?

me me me ....
I am thinking of signing up before i broke my wrist i cut out fabric to make tiny bags with handles I can show you a pic of the fabric and will be able to sew them on Dec 12th my cast comes off on the 11th.  Is that o.k...I love this swap

Would anyone be interested in fabric coaster or fabric napkins?

[freestyle]

Oh no!! So sorry about your wrist kevsbabe!! *hugs* *hugs* *hugs*

Everything sounds terrific! I need to think of something for this round. Would there be any interest in "chocolate" magnets? They are made from polymer clay, 6 per set. White chocolate, chocolate, and strawberry are the flavors I've made so far. I could also make a set of mixed flavors.

Edited to change pic to actual sets that are up for grabs.



1. All strawberry
2. All white chocolate
3. All milk chocolate
4. All dark chocolate
5. All white chocolate
A. 2 each of milk, dark, and white chocolate
B. 2 each of milk, dark, and white chocolate
C. 2 each of milk, dark, and white chocolate

I will do either 3-4-5 or A-B-C depending on which is more popular.
