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?

Dingle that's a brilliant idea.

A group blog where we can all add our own bits n pieces (after our partners have received their parcels natch).

Anyone interested?

More to the point - anyone know how to set one up?

Dingle · 29/01/2008 09:33

Just thinking out loud!!!

I think it could be fun and would love to take part, we could all link it to our own blogs....perhaps get likkle banners....

STOP now Dingle and get on with the housework!

Fubsy · 29/01/2008 12:05

Didnt we used to have a Yahoo picture album with a password?

cant for the life of me remember how to get on it, Whizz used to do links to it I think!

Nbg · 29/01/2008 12:40

ooh the blog is a great idea!

I think if someone wants to set it up initially and then we'll all just have to know the username and password to get onto it I think.

Although it will mean having a group email too I think.

Ooooh how exciting

meridian · 29/01/2008 16:43

a blog sounds like a good idea...if no one else volounteers I will set one up tommorow morning while ds is in preschool.

Tillyboo · 29/01/2008 17:05

Fab Idea !

I reckon we/ mumsnet ought to have our own website selling our wares too.

Any mileage in that ?

Nbg · 29/01/2008 17:46

Yeah Tilly!

Ooooh oooh how excited am I!!!

I'll be happy to set something up too.

Dingle · 29/01/2008 17:56

LOL.....well I would love to be part of it, but still feel I am just playing a being a crafter compared with some of you!

meridian · 29/01/2008 17:56

I want to know who my partner is now... can't wait... must know now! now! now!

pacience is a virtue I do not possess.

Fubsy · 29/01/2008 18:48

Dingle, Im not a pro by any means! I just like making stuff!

Gingermonkey · 29/01/2008 19:20

Dingle - I'm going to slap you if you keep putting your creations down . I think you'll find everyone is rather in awe of A: how much you manage to make, and B: how pro it looks (and I'm crossing fingers to get you as a swapper....I need cards, I love cards, I want cards....and knitted things too )

Meri - I am also not v patient, and am starting to get itchy!!! lol. I need to know what to make, I need to know my swapper!!!! YES YES YES to group blog

Glad to see you got the message though, Dingle (not that you could miss it!!!! )

Miaou · 29/01/2008 20:06

Before I join in, can I ask - what kind of things are people thinking of making? I'd love to join in but have limited time and resources so am not sure if I could "do" enough ...
