We’re so excited to have you join this fun and creative exchange. Each month, we come together to spread joy, connect with fellow members, and share our love for quilting and sewing. Here’s everything you need to know to make the most of this special program:
How It Works
- Monthly Participation: You can join the swap each month based on your schedule and interest.
- New Partner Each Month: Every month, you’ll be paired with a different Secret Pal, keeping things fresh and exciting. I will PM partner by the end of September 2.
- Commitment is Key: Please only sign up if you’re confident you can fulfill the obligation. Missing a swap may result in exclusion from future swaps.
- Please keep the package cost around $20, not including stash items or shipping.
- Mail Deadline: All packages should be mailed by September 20.
- Thoughtful Gifts: Use your creativity to assemble a thoughtful package your Secret Pal will love! You can include items from your stash as long as they are like-new and in good condition.
- Package Quality: Avoid sending items that are worn, damaged, or unsuitable for use. Let’s keep the swap enjoyable for everyone.
- Shipping Confirmation: Once your package is mailed, send a private message to Hav4boys with your shipping details to help us track the process.
- Mail Early: For international participants, mail your package by September 10 to ensure it arrives on time.
- Customs Tips: Mark your package as a “Gift” on the Customs Declaration with a value of $10 to avoid extra charges for your recipient.
- Receiving Packages: When you receive your package, send a private message to your Secret Pal to let them know. A quick thank-you message goes a long way!
- Share the Joy: Please share photos of your received items in the group. It’s always wonderful to see creativity and care in each swap.
- Questionnaire: Complete the sign-up questionnaire and send it via private message to Hav4boys.
- Deadline: Sign-ups close at midnight July 31.
Happy swapping!
