Shop the Swap Winter Market-Discussion Thread!

[Avesthel]

I have a question.   Are we going to keep this thread active as our interim discussion thread so we can keep tabs on when the next round will start and/or for general crafty chatting about STS?      

[loves2experiment]

i don't see why not  

we can def. talk about the next round (in spring 2013)

and i love the new format as well!

I really enjoyed the new format too! It made claiming/making/setting up custom order requests much easier. Not to mention not having to transition the shops every month.

Thanks so much for all your hard work loves and AM!

I wonder... if you set up a new thread called Spring Market, might we get some new folks interested/chatting? 

[alteredmommy]

Thats a good idea, I'll do that next year   ahhh how I love saying "next year" right before the New Year!

until then please feel free to keep on discussing your STS craftyness on this thread!

If DesignVigilante and Jillybeans have any one point requests, they could post them in this thread and I'll see what I can do. Probably only supplies or premade stuff from me. I have stuff from previous rounds I didn't post to make my shop shiny and new.

I concur with all!   And the break will definitely help me to replenish my stock and (maybe) finish some of the many things I had intended to add to my shop this round, but didn't find the time to complete. Of course, I can't really offer the A Christmas Story tree ornaments I've been working on (cross-stitched leg lamp!) in the Spring, but maybe some other things will materialize by then.   I have almost two months of a break from school coming up, so I might be a little more productive on the crafty side. It's a good thing I didn't embark on the "50 projects" goal/thread this year; I would've failed miserably.   But yes, let's keep yakking it up here in the interim, because the worst part about taking a break from STS is losing contact with all you great people.  

Also, I just got promoted into a new position at the company that hired me a couple months ago, and this one has health benefits! I haven't had health insurance for 5 years, so this is a big yay! Tonight is my last night of work, with my shift beginning at 5:30pm -- Monday I will start working a shift that begins at 6:30am. My inner clock is going to be really confused and cranky!

Congrats on the promotion!

[jillybeans]

Congrats on the promotion, calluna!

I made my last claim to troubleT so I'm now officially closed!  YAY YAY!  Thanks for the awesome time, everyone!  I will definitely be playing again next time!
