I'll join if I can get feedback from one of my other swaps before the 21st.  This is a tough time of year, too many awesome swaps!

I just signed up for this swap as a surprise for my DH and DD!  I am so excited, as Halloween is my DH's favorite holiday and my DD loves bats!   

There were some questions on the questionnaire that I couldn't answer right now b/c I have to ask DH to make sure, but b/c it's a surprise, I can't be obvious when I ask.  I will post the answers on the swap thread as soon as he answers me; sometime today.

I also forgot to mention that I LOVE to spoil! 

One more thing...I'm wondering if perhaps the sign up period could be shortened or the sendouts earlier...If sendouts are only ten days before Halloween, most people won't get their packages in time to enjoy them before Halloween.

I am awaiting feedback so I can join too!

oooooo! I gotta finish a swap before I can do another one.... have to limit myself to only three swaps or I really get overwhelmed and depressed!  Not a good thing to be feelin.

the signups are 10 days I would like to get as many people as possible, making it easier to get similar partners. Everybody is welcome to send early, I usually do but I feel a month to craft is pretty standard.

Hm, that's too bad. I'll still consider signing up (it's a question of whether I can fit it into my schedule at this point. . .but I do LOVE Halloween and making Halloween crafts!), but I agree that 10 days between send-outs and Halloween isn't necessarily long enough to receive (especially since I'm in Canada).

If you get partnered with someone from the same country it might be enough time. Is there a specific size we should be making the bags? Most fill bag/stocking swaps give you some kinda standard size...or is that something that would be worked out with partners when theyre given out?

My idea was standard medium-tote style, but it can be tailored to your partners tastes.

I can move sendouts to 10/17, since I only have one person signed up already and she is Ok with it. Also, this swap is part extras & candy, so i think that will be enough time

[monnie31]

I'm in...I think, I may have sent it twice, dang laptop!  I loved this one last year!
