Ooooh.... gonna have to seriously think about this one....

[Pixiefirefly]

Welcome teachart!!! 

[SevsOnlyGirl]

Ok, so everyone knows how much I hate the points system.   So please tell me if this is right - 4 points equals 2 small items?  Is that correct?

Well no, a small item is 1 point. I'll take the line out saying that you can only have a maximum of two small items. Basically what I want is people to at least make a medium and at the most 2 smalls which all total 4 points, other wise I could take 4 barrettes paste a picture of each of the guys on them and call it done.

You are more than welcome to request one that wants to do more! Make sure you put that on the app so my forgetful mind will remember! lol

That goes for anyone, if you want to send more than what's required please note that. I will add another question for that!

[teachart]

I'm ready for the 25th to be here!

And I'm up for extra crafting as well

[Pixiefirefly]

Well it's definately quiet in here! lol There was more interest in the  idea thread! lol Well we still have more sign up time.

So I am on a mission to find the movie Yellow Submarine for not an obnoxious price. I just remember watching that movie as a kid and how cool it was! I have been looking at a lot of crafts made online with the Beatles as the theme. There are so many great ones out there. I have seen a bunch of purses out there made with the Beatles fabrics. I am gonna do a little research and see if I can find some still.

What about you guys? Found anything cool yet? Is your daughter excited Sev?

[hgddm]

I want to sign up for this as soon as I get feedback for a couple other swaps (wink wink). I'm thinking about what kinds of awesome Beatles crafts I can make...
