Lori you have to go to your settings page, not your profile. It is on the left hand column.

I was really wanting to get back into this swap but from the pictures from the last couple months swaps it looks like people don't follow the $10 limit. I defiantly don't have a stash and am afraid if i do sign up and stay with in the limits some of the swappers would be really disappointed it they got a small package.

SewsonSaturday. The rules say $10 limit. Some people have gigantic stashes and opp to send more. Don't worry about that. There are many little things you can make for your pal that will cost you nothing if you make it from scraps. I pick up things on sale at JoAnns, Walmart, Michaels or Tuesday Morning. If you have a Hobby Lobby in your area. That is a good place to go too. A new quilting magazine from Walmart is a good item. It is the thought that counts. Sometimes people send a little something from their state like a magnet etc. Some people can afford to be more generous and that is their choice but $10 limit is the rule not including postage. If you put on your info sheet that you have no stash and would welcome scraps, rulers, etc. you might be surprised at what you could possible receive.

Please don't feel initimidated by some of the packages! Like fayzer said, some people have huge stashes. Some also go over the $10 limit. I have received packages of all shapes and sizes, and none have disappointed me. I am really tickled just to get mail that isn't going to cost me money! I also enjoy seeing the different ways people interpret my list. I just bought a bag of quilting magazines at a book sale for a quarter each, those might show up in future packages. I also got free brochures from my local travel/convention bureau and include one in many of my swaps because I really enjoy receiving one in a swap.
