Prayer Flag Swap Rd. 2; sign ups CLOSED, send by Jan 11, 2013

[muddy21]

Popping in to say hi and wish happy holidays to all!  I'm trying an entirely new technique with the first one - it's cut and prepped and I'm hoping to do more on it tomorrow.  Lots of ideas for the second flag - they're still percolating.

Hope everyone is trying to enjoy the holiday season. Wishing all a promising upcoming New Year.

We now have a gallery!  The link is on the front page, and I will give the link here too:

Just a reminder:  when you send in the US, you need to get a DC# and pm your partner and both organizers with the number.  This means that you will need to mail your prayer flags in something larger than a regular card-sized envelope; a large manilla envelope is fine, but if it is very flat you will need to make it lumpy--put a styrofoam peanut in it, or a wad of paper, so it qualifies as a package rather than an envelope, and you can get your DC# (you can't get a DC# on a regular flat envelope without upgrading it to priority, and paying around $6!)  The lightweight but lumpy envelope will cost about $2 plus the cost of the DC#.

Still here. At family. Might have a new sewing machine.

Crafting date tomorrow! I am having so much fun with this! My mom just showed me a bunch of really cool embroidery patterns she has that I am excited to incorporate into my flags! Whee!

I have one finished. I started the second yesterday and have all the pieces and bits set out but cant decide if I want to go with it or change it. I might play around some more before deciding.

I'm alive! Still haven't started crafting, but have been perfecting my ideas in my head over the holidays. Hopefully everything will come together smoothly!

Just checking in! Have some of my flag done. Going to do some hand sewing on it too!! Then will be done & send next week!

I ended up changing the last one after all-glad I did! And I am done. Hoping to get them to the PO by Weds (my day off).

Still here. At family. Might have a new seeing machine.

Honestly, I think that's what I need: a seeing machine. It would make the sewing much easier!
