    Last call for sign up for the 3rd pincushion swap. I will be assigning partners on Tuesday, Nov. 16th. Remember you must have a pincushion made and ready to mail before you sign up.

    OK, I am pretty sure I can have mine done by tomorrow. Since I am a newbie to this swap... what have people done in the past, as in sending things besides the pincushion? Just don't want to disappoint anyone.

    Thanks. Tomorrow is the deadline right to sign up (IF you have it done!), right?

    :-D

    It is not necessary to send extras with the pincushions but a lot of us like to add a little something to the actual item in the swap. I don't think anyone is expecting a bonus. If you still want to send a little something else go back through the threads on the board and see what others have done. Yes, Monday is the deadline for signing up.

    We just want a wonderful pin cushion to add to our collection. Nothing else required. Welcome to the board.

Please pm me if you would like to join in the fun and please let me know if you can do international or if you live outside the US.
    Thanks.
    Description:
    1. Before signing up have a pincushion made and ready to be mailed.
    2. PM Barbsbus to be included.
    3. When you mail the pincushion get a delivery confirmation number.
    4. Try to use up stuff in your stash to make the pincushion and keep the cost under $5.00.
    Size can be any size.
    Label (optional) if possible attach some kind of label so you partner will remember who made the special pincushion.
    5. PM your partner when you mail the pincushion and when you receive one from them and be sure the thank them.
    6. PM Barbsbus when you send and receive the pincushions.
    (Optional but nice) Take pictures of the pincushions if you can and post them on the thread.

    MANDATORY: HAVE FUN

    I will be assigning partners on the 16th
    If you have signed up please check the rooster to make sure I have you on it. I will only put your name on it if you have told me via a pm that you have a pincushion ready to mail.

    I got my name, I got the same person I had in the first pinchushion swap. I hope this could be changed. I see how this was done the names were flipped so Terryl was above me so she got me and I got her. I checked all 3 months and that is how it is done If this is the system most times will will get each other. I would like to know if it is then I will not join this swap again. SORRY but that isn't any fun I want to make something for someone else. Terryl has the pincushion I have made she said it was a work of art now the only thing that I could do is change the color. I have the beautiful one she made me in a teacup. Who would like to switch partners with us?????????

    Sorry this happened to you. I didn't even think about repeaters of partners doing the assignments and will take that into consideration next swaps. Will work on getting you guys different partners.

    Thank you so much. With getting a different person each time a person will meet new people and prehaps become BFF. I thought that's what swaps were about meeting new people.

    Thank you Debbie! I had to wait for this third one and am so glad to be joining y'all. I have been making a lot of pincushions lately.

    Trupeach1: clue me in, please, I have seen BFF before but don't have any idea what that one means.
