Congrats on the new job Louise, hope you can continue to play in the swap.
Onalee, I am not offended if my pals regift any of the things I sent them if they don't like them/can't use them.
Dear pals, your packages are at your local sort facilities, so maybe they'll make it to your house today..woo hoo!

I don't want to get anyone's knickers in a twist with this question but I've been pondering this since I joined this fun swap. This may have been discussed before I became active on this board so I'm just throwing this out there for thoughtful consideration.
I personally would NOT feel bad should I see something I sent to a SP in an earlier swap show up (in a posted picture) later in another SP package. If someone should re-gift something you sent them in a previous month would you be offended?
I personally could NOT/would NEVER, re-gift a handmade gift a SP or anyone made for me, but say for instance someone sent me a purple thang and I already have a purple thang or say a piece of fabric that I might never use, would it be tacky to send it on to someone else within this swap?

i can only hope that no secret pal of mine gets offended if they see something they gave me show up in another pals swap gift. i would rather any of my regifting items be used by someone else rather than just sit in a box somewhere unused by me. i have been a recycler all of my adult life so it is a way of life for me. we may all have different opinions about regifting even of handmade items, but surely we cannot expect everyone to feel as we do. but even if some of us may think that others should feel as we do, i am taking the liberty to be unique in my thinking and do differently. so to that i say, "Hi. My name is Mary and i am a regifter."
p.s. to any of my swap pals that may be offended by my regifting philosophy, i issue my sincere apologies to you right now.
