We'll just keep a list here of the months and the hostess. Sharon has a good list going there! Then as the months get closer we'll open up a sign up list for each month. It's much to soon to start them for Feb. and beyond don't you think?

So we have a very good start on the swaps through May. Cindy B said she would host April if you want to add her to the list Sharon.

Have fun everyone!

I was going to ask for July, but I see someone beat me to it. I will take August with patriotic prints for any season.

Are we going to set a maximum number of participants? It is always easier if there is a set number so that cutting out and mailing won't be such a problem. Do we send addressed postage paid envelops or is each hostess deciding how to handle postage?

How about, instead of limiting the number of participants, we just limit the number of sets, for instance, 30 sets of 2 fabrics. If only 15 people sign up, then maybe we could vary the fabrics in the sets that we send. But, it would always be 30 baggies with 2 charms in each one. And the hostess would divide them up.

Does that sound okay?

I agree with Evie. I vote for 30 sets myself. That way when I start cutting them I can do several months ahead. I would say include a S.A.S.E. with enough stamps (not metered postage)for your return pkg.
