Posted Mar 20, 2008 01:36 PM Posted Feb 04, 2008 05:56 PM I am going to host the pincushion swap as there is a lot of interest. I did Brinnsmoms last year and got back some great pincushions. I will post a pic later. I am going to set the due date after everyone signs up and lets me know what will work for the majority. I am thinking April 30th or around then if you really want an idea. Each player must make up 1 set of 6 which can all be the same. You can send in 2 sets of 6, but must use two different patterns. You choose the pattern. You will get back 6 or 12 different pincushions depending on how many you send in. To play, you must sign up and PM me with your real name, HGTV name, address, and phone number. You must be aware that they have to be recieved by the due date. I will swap them out and send back out within one week of the due date. Any received after that will be returned unopen. If you are purchasing fabrics to make these you may want to pick up a little extra to make one for yourself and to make needlecases for Brinnsmoms swap which she will be hostessing in the near future. Wouldn`t it be fun to have a matching set for yourself? All pincushions must be clearly marked with your HGTV name. They will be mailed in a flat rate box that is priced at 8.95. You must include this amount for return postage. Please include a self addressed priority mailing label. If you do not have access to these, let me know and we will work out something else. When you pack your pincushions, you may think it is a waste of space if yours are small, but remember you have no idea the size of anyone elses. OK, now that I have rambled on and on, Smile thinking of Talias remarks on this subject. Let the sign ups commence. players list Tisme done Brinnsmom Sweet Tea I Can Make It! kimberliiw SHAWKL catec7 chris915 missingnj Shelbydayle dabsof-tinystitches rose tx thimblelady headielamar dragonlover monasent Nancy bluesnail holee No Time Quilter second set came everythingquilts royalboomer A SS is joining also

I hope you are all very happy I was so intrigued I started collecting patterns - then I tried to do a few.....I can't stop stuffing!!! Help, help - these are so addicting. It only took 4 tries before I got one I was OK with. The first two were so very, very sad!!! Looking forward to the next time you do this - maybe I'll have them all ready to go at signup...
