Extra 6x6
Well some of you have expressed a wish to do more than two squares a month.
I have no control over what you do personally. However, please bear it in mind that some of our members of this group, lead extremely busy lives and cannot for one reason or another get theirs done this fast. Also if you are exchanging between the months when it comes to the monthly sign-ups you may find yourselves paired up again with the person you've just done your own with. This may be alright for a while, then you'll get your afghan squares done long before anyone else, leaving a few on the list still needing more, and there won't be anyone to exchange with if you see what I mean. For an example take Gwen...she is away from the list until November, she wants to be in on it, so I've decided that I will do her squares (6) bringing her up to the end of November. (she is doing mine) Imagine if she comes back and goes on the list, trying to collect X amount of squares, from everyone on board, but some of you have gone ahead and exchanged between yourselves, finishing your afghans this means you no longer need anymore squares to complete an afghan, and she won't be able to get any from you. Then there is me, I want one from everyone too, but until Gwen is back I am not on the normal run of the monthly sign-ups I am only able to step in when there is no one else. So whilst I cannot dictate to anyone what they should do in their own time, the rcty 6x6 exchange is best left to run on the monthly schedule. Not only that, I don't want people getting bored with it, and dropping off, and believe me this has happened before on other lists, where they've tried to do two lots of exchanges a month, and it has come around far too often and people have thought, "Oh no not that again, I can't be bothered" hence less sign ups.. the idea of this exchange was to look forward to each month with anticipation, not dread. So whilst I prefer it to run at one exchange to the month, lets put it to the vote... There are 38 of us on this exchange, so come on in and put either YES or NO... yes means you want to do two exchanges(two seperate partners) a month, and NO means you want it to stay at one exchange of two squares a month. My vote is obviously NO, and Gwens will be NO as well, as I will vote in her absence. If the majority is for more, then I will step it up to two exchanges a month. Bringing the knitting time and postal time down from four weeks to two weeks. Hope this is fair enough for everyone...???

Well, I'm afraid that my vote must be No, as well. I just don't have the
time, what with everything else I'm up to. -- Star love, Norma "Cher" wrote in message ... Well some of you have expressed a wish to do more than two squares a month.

sorry I didn't mean to cause anything was just anxious and enjoyed doing
them so much..please forgive me. I will have to go ahead and try and do one myself. Will have to wait for the other one. But you can still sign me up with as many as you want in November. Oh by the way I have lots to do also and I work. I understand everyone is very busy.
