I just had an idea! Why not take one month and instead of a square exchange
have a hubby/so exchange where we each sign up to make something for the other persons hubby, kid, s/o and send them out instead of squares? Anyone interested? Pick the person, send info about age appropriate items and colors and have fun with it? Hugs, Cori -- Delete nospam to email me back --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.

For one month out of the year that's a can do Cher! But since I'm slow
crocheting we might want to make it so a person has more time. Anyone interested? We can make it something small (bookmark, fridgie, scrunchie) I'll keep watching to see if anyone would like to do this. I did something like this before and I know the kids got a huge kick out of it. They don't often get mail or something from someone far away. It really makes their day and makes them feel special. Hubby just likes saving the stamps from around the globe ;D Hugs, Cori -- Delete nospam to email me back --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.

Hi Cori,
I feel I must keep myself to the 6x6 and be strict with myself and not take anything more on. Of course people can add a little something, bar of candy or something to be shared with the rest of the family if they so wish. Trouble is, if you get too many group projects going, one of them gets in the way, and starts dropping in numbers. So this is why I prefer to stick to this. At the moment we have the Secret Projects that Nora does, and this is very active, then Coggie does secret swaps, or swaps. So I am not in a position to do anything else, especially at this time of the year. But good luck to you or whoever does do this.. Cheers.....Cher "Cori" wrote in message ...

Dear Cher,
That's ok. Right now I'm just trying to see if there would be any interest and the timing doesn't have to be now. I know everyone is in a mad dash to create for the holidays and all their other previous commitments. I guess I should have made myself clearer lol! I wasn't proposing a new long running project or exchange, just a once a year exchange. My clearer idea (how this is happening without coffee I'm not sure) Sometime in the middle of 2004 (how about MAY) we have an exchange of a small item for a member in our family such as a child, husband, significant other. If it's for child or children in many cases include a couple of items and address it to all of them. The item(s) exchanged would be small It doesn't have to be handmade It could be something interesting from your country, culture or area(s) of interest. Some suggestions could be.... A stamp like Mirjam suggested would be great! It's small, generally inexpensive, and can be very pretty. A recipe that you enjoy with your family A postcard of something in your area that you like A letter, telling some interesting facts about where you live and what you like to do. The general idea is to get to know a bit more about the other countries, cultures and people that visit this group. And to give the other people in our lives a stuffie in the mail ;D Kind of like a hug from a new place. I've been reading all your posts and wondering about all of you, where you're from, what it's like there, is it hot? cold? for those who have actually posted where they are from I've been going on the web and google searching your locations. Are you in the north? south? What your general area looks like. That kind of thing. After being on some other newsgroups and reading posts that start out nice but end up with people picking each other apart this group is refreshing. I've seen a celebration of differences here because we are all addicted to yarn! There is the occasional verbal spanking over a post but there is no sniping at a person on a personal level. Even if this idea doesn't take off I'd like you to know that I enjoy your company, would love to learn all about you and thoroughly enjoy each post. Whew! I'm wordy today. I'll close now before I repeat myself (likely) or wax sentimental (very likely). Hugs to all, Cori -- Delete nospam to email me back --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
