I haven't gotten a name yet. Will the deadline be extended so those of us getting them late have enough time to make/ buy the specific things our swapee wants?

Ok, all names are out.
If you signed up and haven't received a name, PLEASE let me know.

This week has been a bugger for me.
I spent all day yesterday at the hospital with my neighbor. She went into labor, had a beautiful little girl, but little girl is in NICU with an infection. They don't know if it has spread to her brain, but please send all healing prayers for Baby Annie.

I don't put up a tree - I have a quilted one I hang instead. i do use flannel on the back of my quilts makes them more cozy. I don't use aprons, or M-bowls or need scarfs or gloves.

I received my swapee's name. Thank you, Terri. Now to figure out what to buy and what to make. I'm always a bit intimidated making things for people with much more quilting/ sewing experience than I have.

Thanks for asking the questions. I don't wear jewelry. I do like pot holders and towels. I don't have a table so no to runners. I make scarves so no. But I do wear chef-type aprons. I don't care for scented items, so iffy on soap or lotions. I make microwave bowls and have several.

Oh, and I much prefer yardage over FQs. Actually I would be delighted if my swapee send a yard of fabric rather than the 4 FQs.
