Easter Egg Challenge and Secret Easter Bunny **CLOSED** Mail by April 7th
Hi all,
Since we have had so much fun with secret Santa and Secret Valentine. I thought it might be fun to continue on with a "Secret Easter Bunny". Is there any interest in this?? My idea would be to exchange spring colored fabric, perhaps some goodies or something cute that you made. hmmmm heres a challenge for everyone... what kind of an easter egg can you make with your stash?? The egg has no limits in size, dimension or color but it must look like an egg. This would be included in your easter/spring package. Easter is late this year so we can take sign ups until Feb 28th and your mail out date would be April 7th. Of course we would all love to see a photo of your easter egg from the challenge...
Additional information added 1/17/09
1. The easter egg challenge is the main "gift" in this exchange so you could go all the way from making a table runner with an easter egg on it, or a wall hanging, or an individual easter egg that you design yourself.. I just don't want anyone to go out and buy stuff to make this egg, please use your stash if at all possible.
2. If you can't do the egg you can still participate but you need to include some other main "gift".
3. Deb sent me a great suggestion.. lets do this scavenger hunt style.. you are the one doing the hunt...
please include
--------your egg
--------spring/easter fat quarter
--------something an easter bunny would leave or related to him
--------Something orange
--------something yellow
--------something green
Please dont go over $10.00
4. Your name will be added to the signup list after I receive a PM containing your name,forum name, address and a phone number.
When signups close on Feb 28th. I will match up names and get the information sent to each of you asap. At that point you will be responsible to report when the gift is sent and sending a photo if possible of your egg to this forum. If you sign up and have to drop out please try to do so before the partners are assigned.
Hoppy Spring ( at least its trying to be here in Stockton, California, we are setting records for daytime temps)
Any questions please ask

Sounds like a "hippity hop" idea. couple questions:
1. spending limit
2. Should the gift be something we make
3. where are all the eggs going to be sent, to our "Secret Bunny partner"?
4. can we just be part of the "Secret Bunny" exchange without doing an egg?
5. What info do you need for signup?
hoppy hugs, carol/kittyquilt

I did it again, duh, you would think I would learn. think i'm going to put a bit sign on my monitor that says "Hit the Add Button".
anyway, here's what i think i said in the message that went no where:
Took me a while but I finally "got" it. my fuzzy little brain cells sometimes are slow at figuring things out. now that they have said they can do this, I'm in.
hoppy hugs, carol/kittyquilt
