This is an international swap so you must be willing to send internationally. (A hoop and some extras shouldn't be *too* heavy of a package).
This group is open. So anyone who signs up is in. I'll be closing sign-ups on the 4th of Oct. or at 80 participants, whichever comes first.
Partners will be mailed out by Oct. 7.
Last day to send is Nov. 8.!
Here's my inspiration mosaic to give you an idea of what we'll be swapping:
Zakka style hoops that have an organizational aspect to them are acceptable as well! Like the Zakka Message Hoop or Hoops that have pockets in them to store things.
Y'all will be able to mention on the swap form whether or not you want a hoop that is just art/decoration like above or if you want something that has a function. Saying that either is okay is fine too.
Full details and rules are on the group discussion board. Please make sure to check out the Rules thread and comment if you want to participate in the swap.
I still need to make the survey but I'll have it completed no later than Monday morning to send out to everyone.
Here's the link to the group!
This is just too cute. I'd love to join! Do I just need to join the Flickr group?
ReplyDeleteCute inspiration mosaic. Oh so tempted to do something on the road - argh!
ReplyDeleteI haven't done a swap in forever but you motivated me with the ridiculous cuteness - I love hoops! I'm in :-) You should post this in the SS group too!
ReplyDeleteHow much embroidery do you have to know how to do to join this? Some people's mosaics are embroidery-intense. Oh, and how do you even make a mosaic?
ReplyDeleteSimple embroidery stitches would be helpful. Although there are some hoops that are entirely quilt based showing up in the group.
DeleteBigHugeLabs.com has a mosaic maker tool that I find is the easiest to use for my mosaics.
Done and thanks! I think I can manage the backstitch (still searching for a book with good photos to teach me the stitches--or I can stitch up some cute designs on my sewing/embroidery machine! :)
