Could we just close signups now and get partners?     I don't know if I can wait till the 17th!

I'm with Miss Barbara on that one I'm ready to start stalking! This is the only place that you can get away with stalking someone and have them end up happy about it... lol.

I'm really tempted...  what's the protocol on that!???

[opheliapoe]

Protocol, shmotocol... haha. But, seriously... It will be very difficult, but I think I can be a big girl and wait it out without *too* much whining

I did manage to get all the Christmas chaos cleared off my desk last night and I am going to be digging through all my patterns and fabric tonight to see what all I have that's purse-worthy. That's my New Year's Eve plans since my hubby is playing a show with his band, pretending to be a rock star tonight.

I am debating on joining this swap, but I do need a new purse!
The last swap my partner did not know it was a 6 point swap so I did not get that much!

Well I think it's pretty clear this time around - there has to be 5 items inside the bag, and at least 2 of them have to be hand-crafted...  Can't get more straightfoward than that!  And if you and your partner communicate and decide to go a little overboard, that's fine too! 

Protocol, shmotocol... haha. ...

hehehehe -- I'm inclined to agree with ya!    But I know there will be a couple of late joiners.  A couple gals mentioned that they have to wait for feedback from other swaps 'cuz they are currently maxed out for swaps, which is why I used the full month for the signup period.... 

But I'm starting to stalk everyone now to compare interests and skills, so the match-ups will be right away at midnight on the 17th!!

I just sent a pm to join this swap.  One of my goals for 2011 is to be more active in the crafting community.  I haven't posted here for quite some time, but I check out what everyone is making on a regular basis.  I have always wanted to join a swap and am hoping this will help me be more involved.  I love making bags!  I am a quilter mainly, but bag making may pass that up.
Anyway, looking forward to this swap.
Happy New Year!
