Let me see if I can still complete my August swap first.

Just sent in my info for this swap. I've sat out for a few months,ready to get back on track.

I just posted the signup for the September PC/NC swap. The theme is "colors of the rainbow" and there will be a challenge to see who can use the most rainbow colors in their pc and nc. There will be a prize for the winner! :D Pass the word!

September Pincushion and Needlecase Swap - Colors of the Rainbow

TL you are more than welcome to post something on the pincushion swap thread to advertise this swap. We should all stick together! :)

Im hoping to feel the weather change soon 96* here yesterday, I've done my part by posting the theme :) Come on and join us!

Picked out fabric yesterday, now a little mini design to show it off. Will have to ponder on this today...Anyone else started?

UH....NO! I'm still finishing up last month! SEW busy!!!!!

I am in for September. Sounds like a fun project.

Excited to try my first swap here!

Glad to see you both join us. It's a fun swap!!

Sign ups for this fun swap close tomorrow. Come on and join us! I can small that pumpkin pie now :)

Ii am barely able to finish up August commitment, so I will not be joining in for September. I so don't want to be a person who is unable to send on time. Sorry.

Tomorrow is the last day to sign up for the September Pincushion and Needlecase swap. Come and join us. The theme is Colors of the Rainbow and there will also be a prize for the person who uses the most colors in the pc/nc. This will be a really fun swap!

I'm going to join this month. I love the Frost on the pumpkin theme too.

Hey Dotty dotcomdtcm, your mailbox is full......I can't contact you.

Thinking forward... I am not Jewish but I have some nice fabric collected for my friends. If anyone wants a side swap for Chanukah (or a box of fabric) let me know. Dotty

Waaaah. So sorry to hear this Beth. And here I had my fingers crossed hoping we'd be paired up. ( I know, that was a reallllly big hope.)

Oh sure, and you are thinking of doing this one? Now that is not nice. Wonder if I can pull a rabbit out of my hat? :p

And yes, a rabbit came out of my hat Whigrose. I finished the August cutie this am. So I requested that I be able to join in. Since I am a day late, we will see if I am able to play this month. I do have a plan already for this one. Also, I know where the fabrics are and what to do to make it fun. I figure since I am trapped in the office during my lunches, I can work on the base part of it here and get it finished up. We will see first.

:) this pleases me.

Hugs, gf

missed the aug. 31 deadline date to sign up......MAYBE next month... looks like another fun swap.

The cooler weather has helped, but they are still burning here. We can breathe thank goodness.
