Let the sewing begin! Have fun! :)

Thank you so much for pairing me up with an international swapper.

Does the mat have to reflect one of our own hobbies?

Wasn't able to join for this month but will be watching eagerly to see what everyone is making

Betty J -- yes, one (or more) of your hobbies.

LindaC -- catch you next month! :)

Just sent a PM to vovoa for her address. Excited to see what her hobby is :)

[QUOTE=ctyankee;7642964]Betty J -- yes, one (or more) of your hobbies.

Do we have to request what our swap partners hobby is or do we just go ahead and make the mat as per one of our hobbies? Sorry if I seem a little confused. I am happy to do whatever.

My "hobby" is ready to mail, just need an address from vovoa.

Just go with your hobby, Betty. I'm pretty sure we all have many of the same hobbies -- but, then, you never know!

Thank you for your reply, I will go with one of my hobbies that I have had for a long time, like almost 40 years! I just have to source an appropriate design or fabric......not an easy one!

Sounds intriguing, Betty! Look forward to seeing your newest creation!
