I'm about half way through the list PMing with my address. My tendionitis is acting up so I have to quit for a while. Hopefully I'll finish soon.

I think I'll wait till the 20th. If they didn't get there in time, they would get so lonely sitting on your deck!

I have almost everyone PMed with my address. My arm is really hurting so I won't be able to finish tonight. If you haven't heard from me by Sunday evening, please PM me and I'll make sure you get the information. I'm going to go ice my arm now.

This is a PM I just received from LynnS:

Since you have so many bags of charms to sort through, would it make your job easier if we go ahead and send 32 sets of charms to you? I was going to just send 31 (as I don't need to send myself my own fabric), but I realized it might actually make your job more difficult that way, with keeping track of which charms were sent by who.

I think that sending me 31 sets of charms does make more sense. I hope this works for everyone. Please let me know if there is a problem.

I will have mine mailed out around the 20th. I can't wait to get these back. I will save them for a larger project. Do you plan on having another charm exchange after you get this one finished???

Do most people prefer the charm squares washed or not? I'm going to be getting mine ready this week.

I washed my fabric in Woolite, warm water then dried them in the drier. I think you just prepare your fabric as you usually do and write on each baggie what you did.

That sounds good to me, LynnS.

This is going to be fun!


Someone asked in a PM if we'd do this again once this one is over. Hmmm, I think I'll have to see how this one goes first. Right now it seems like a great idea but it might be a different story when I'm surrounded by charm squares and trying to sort them into new homes. :)

I'm going to type out in Word the info for the baggies, then print it out as if they were labels (multiples per sheet). That way I won't have to re-write everything.
