Yeah I know I said I'd post on Monday but I know some of you are getting a little over-excited (naming no names meridian) so here it is.

Easter Swap

Either 1 medium or 2 small Easter-themed items. I'll leave the details entirely up to the individual as you all know what constitutes small or medium for your own particular passion.

Sign up on this thread by 11th February & I'll post partners the day after. Parcels should be mailed by 10th March so that gives us a whole month.

To sign up please copy the list of names & post it, adding your name to the bottom.

I'll go first shall I?

Is this sending a kit, or stuff we have made?

GreebosWhiskers · 28/01/2008 14:39

Fubsy - it's for stuff we've made.

However if someone felt that a swap theme wasn't any good for their particular craft I don't see why they couldn't still take part by sending craft stuff to their partner instead of an actual finished item, say some yarn for a knitter or fabric for a sewer.

Is everyone okay with that?

or just chocolate.. chocolate is always good it sounds very good GW

meridian · 28/01/2008 14:46

GW- have you set a price limit? I can't see one listed here...

GreebosWhiskers · 28/01/2008 16:07

Hmmm - haven't set a price limit.

Any suggestions on what a fair price limit should be?

maybe something around £3 or so... obviously if you know something more about you swap parterner then ok, but not so much that others might feel put out? just an idea.. I'm sure most of us have piles of surplus bits and bobs... and not too expensive for those of us on a budget, or with nagging DP's

Gingermonkey · 28/01/2008 16:24

I'd be perfectly happy with materials (or chocolate!!!). Hmmm, price limit is a toughy. Shall we see how the first swap goes and then we can iron out the creases next time? I doubt anyone will go stupid crazy and make something that costs a fortune, would they?

I figure what GingerMonkey said makes sense - there's a first time for everything
