    I'll have to figure out how to do that. I'll be using my iPhone and have needed to work out the process for a while, so Ill try to do it today or tomorrow. If I can get it done, I'll post it on the Main board.

    Hi Kiddos... we are almost done! As soon as Donna's package arrives I will start swapping (she mailed it last week...). I have made a little "happy" to enclose, for your Christmas trees. Also, I tried to post earlier that Oksewglad (Gladie) gave us all a gift as well. That post seems to have disappeared. Gladie didn't want to join the swap this time, but she sent me packets of squares to give to everyone in the swap, as a gift. She was doing it as a "pay it forward" gift. So you will have an extra packet from her. Please be sure to tell her thanks!

    Also, I am thinking of putting this swap on hold til after the holidays. First, it will give us all some time to get new scraps to cut so we don't have to send the same ones as previously. And secondly, I am doing craft fairs this Fall and will be busy preparing for those and could use the break from the swaps. So if you don't mind we will hold off swapping after this one, and resume the first of the year. Start collecting some new scraps to cut!

    Will let you all know when I send out the swaps!

    So excited to get this batch of scraps! Thanks for all your hard work on this, Bonnie.

    I love the idea of waiting until after the holidays. It will give me a chance to get my scraps back under control and cut some different sizes.

    Good luck with the craft fairs!

    2015 swap planning already, so organised! Let's see if I can follow suit - my workroom is a shambles right now due to Farmer's wife templates, etc. Need some time off before the holidays to play catch up.
    Thanks for hosting, Bonnie, it's been so much fun. Looking forward to opening the wonderful squishie!
    hugs,

    Thank you again and again, Bonnie! Will you do different sized swaps? I will be in the market for 2.5" squares in the future so am wondering if there will be a chance to do one that size.

    I'm so sorry for your MIL's problems, Donna. Life happens... Thanks for letting me know when to expect your package. Hopefully our swap will be a 'go' on Wednesday!

    AnneP, I was going to suggest you do SheriR's swap too (White December)... Because other people are already running swaps for the other sized squares, I probably won't be. Sheri just started another 2.5 swap. You won't get your squares until after Christmas, tho.

    You also might consider joining the Birthday Squares Swap next March, too. It uses 2.5" squares. You send 50 to each person in the group, on their birthday. Fun, and when it's your birthday you get the motherlode of squares from all the other members! It's listed in the swaps section, but it's currently full until next March when a new year starts.

    Thanks for the info, Bonne. I did just sign up for the 2.5" swap and will certainly check into the Birthday squares swap! I'll cut extra squares while I'm doing the current one.
