I really hope all those links work! I also hope I haven't left anyone out who said they wanted to join in, if I have, please let me know.
I think we should aim to have our swaps made and posted for Monday 2nd December at the latest, just so that everyone receives their swap in time to display and enjoy it at Christmas...and to blog about it of course! I will try to get round everyone's blog to leave a message about swap partners and this post...but I think I deserve a cuppa first, my brain feels quite tired after writing up this post with all those links!
Thanks again for taking part and...happy swapping!

Edited to add: I think I have managed to leave a message on everyone's blogs now about swap partners etc, so now all you have to do is contact each other and enjoy the making!

ReplyDeleteHi there,

Is it possible to join for next year or is it just amongst your friends?

Do we have to have our own blog to take part, and if not could I please take part in the next one?
ReplyDeleteHi there and sorry for the late reply! Just getting back to normal after the festive season... No, you don't need to have a blog to take part in the swap. You will be very welcome to take part in the next one!
