Moomin Swap
We have a gallery!! https://www.craftster.org/forum/index.php?topic=373155.0This swap is dedicated to all things Moomin related. Just in case you’ve checked out this thread thinking “Hey…what are those cute hippos in that picture?” I should explain that Moomins are a family of Finnish trolls who live in Moominvalley with their friends and have appeared in a number of books, comics, TV animations and films since the 1940's.
If you (or someone you know) would like a bit more Moomin magic in the world then this is the swap for you…

Details of swap:
This will be a 4 point swap, and you can decide with your partner how to distribute the points. Any extras should be discussed with your partner first. For anyone new to the point system, the following guide should help…
Large= 3 points
Medium=2 points
Small=1 point
By Time
-Large = 3 or more hours
-Medium = 2 or more hours
-Small = 2 or less hours
By Size
-Large = A shawl, a shirt, a skirt, a set of jewelry with four to five items, a purse
-Medium = one single necklace or bracelet, a scarf
-Small = Earrings, stickers, wallets, pouches, bookmarks
By Price
-Large = $30 or more
-Medium = $10-$30 dollars
-Small = $10 or less
To help prevent flakers I reserve the right to refuse people based on shaky past feedback, and also ask participants to post in the swap thread at least once per week, even if the post just says “checking in”…just to make sure everyone is still around and on track.
