Emails are going out Today.

* post edit: Does anyone want to swap one more envelope? I have an opening! (read: i goofed) please email me if you want an extra swap!

Thanks for your patience as I organize the Scrap Swap partners!



Take a look at these numbers:

73 people are swapping fabric.


194 envelopes will be sent!


6 countries represented (U.S., Canada, Ireland, UK, The Netherlands, and Turkey!)


11 hours ... the time I've spent gathering and organizing all the addresses and swap partners!

3:21 the time I went to bed last night this morning.

I resorted to printing out all the info and matching them up on the kitchen table. I got them all lined up and went through all the pairs to make sure there were no duplicates. Whew!

I'm working on sending out all the emails today!

Hey Swappers... I want to give a big shout out to our SewSara for making this happen!!! What do ya say, while you're in those scraps you send a little love her way? I messaged Sara, she is working on hexagons- 3.25" fabric squares. Her address is:
Sara Joyner

Happy Scrapping!

If I ever decide to organise something like this I am going to reread your posts so I know what I am getting myself into! We all really appreciate the many hours you are investing in this swap and look forward to finding out who we are partnered with.

I'll do another envelope if you still need someone...

Those are some interesting stats! Thanks for all of your hard work. I don't mind sending an extra envelope, if necessary. Let me know.

I will mail another envelope if you still need to find someone! Also, everyone is right, you deserve unbelievable kudos for organizing this and making it happen. Thank you so much!! ~Lori

Rhonda the Rambler said...

YOU ROCK!!!!!!!!!

I will gladly mail another if you still need someone!

Andrea said...

Thank you, Thank you. I always underestimate time required for a task, I would never have guessed. I think of the fact that if I swapped with a foreign country, I would get totally different cool fabric, if you organize this again I am up for that. Way fun. And I am definitely sending some scraps your way.
