*This is a secret partner swap! Names will be assigned after the close date. You will be mailing your pin cushion to one person, and another person will be mailing a pin cushion to you!

*Your pin cushion must be made and ready to mail before signing up. We want everyone to get one as intended!
Sign up closes April 27th.

*Please send a PM to hostess to sign up, and include your board name, your real name and address, and if you can mail international.

Count me in, please! I want to sign up for two pin cushion swaps but only one international.

Note: last time I did an international swap my post office told me that you cannot get a delivery confirmation. But, perhaps I could get a receipt that I sent something... LOL
