    This is a monthly secret pal swap. There is a sign up every month, and you can choose whether or not to participate each month. You will get a different partner every month, and the person you send to will be different than the person you receive from.

    You do need to send me a PM every month, as I cannot keep track very well of people signing up for more then 1 month. Please don't post a message on the thread about signing up, as I may not see it.

    I would prefer that you resend your info, to make minor changes about holidays, personal preferences, etc.


    If you would like to do it, please send me a pm with this information. If you are international, feel free to join!

    if you are interested in joining, please send me a Private message with the following information. If I do not have a valid email or phone number, you can't participate.

    Screen Name:
    Real Name:
    EMail Address:
    Address:
    Phone Number:
    Favorite Colors:
    Favorite Candy:
    Your favorite notion/fabric line, etc:
    Your least favorite color(s)
    Least favorite candy
    Least favorite notion/fabric line
    Brand of sewing machine:
    Is there anything you like to collect?
    Besides quilting, what do you like to do?
    Allergies:
    Additional Information:
    Can you mail international?
    Favorite thing:
    Least favorite thing:

    This form will be given to your secret pal. The more you put on there, the better she/he will be able to get things you'd like. Additional information may be helpful to them as well.

    There is a 10 dollar budget for this swap. The 10 dollars can, or cannot include things from your stash. Postage isn't included in the ten dollars. The most important thing to remember with the budget is to have fun, but please do NOT spend more then $10.

    If you want ideas on what to send, look at the previous swaps. Things that are always fun to get is fabric, notions, notepads, pens, postcards, handmade items, little things like that.

    Sign ups will close the 26th of each month, and names will be paired on the 27th and sent out by the 28th.

    Packages need to be sent out by the 30th of January if you are in the United states and are sending to someone in the US. If you live international, or are sending to International, please send by the 20th. Send it as early as you'd like!

    I really want to stress that if you sign up, please, PLEASE follow thru. It's a horrible feeling to not receive a package.
    I will be keeping a list of people that don't follow thru. Sorry to be hard nosed but it's not right and it's been happening a lot here lately and we will not be allowed to do secret swaps anymore.

    1. you must ship your package using a method that provides tracking and delivery confirmation. You can purchase it at the post office or if you print postage, it is free for priority mail and 19 cents for all others.

    2. if your pal does not receive her/his package within a reasonable time (14 days max for within the same country, 30 days for between countries) a public note that you failed to send must be added to the Group Activity matrix. if your pal is still empty handed after 14 more days Swap Coordinators are required to post negative feedback against your account. You will not be allowed to participate in any more Secret Pal swaps. Also, other coordinators will not allow you to particpate in their swaps.

    It's all about fun, so please have fun with it.

    If you have questions, please pm me and I will try to answer as quickly as possible.

    This swap has been approved by Patrice J.

    Thanks!
    Suzanne

    Just want everyone to know that I will not be sending out your phone numbers to your pals, those are for me. I will be giving calls to those who haven't followed the rules.

    Just wanted to clear that up.
