I'm curious whose package ends up being first! :)

cara 10-03-2012 07:29 PM

Are you just waiting on my and Tommi's packages?

nycfem 10-03-2012 08:59 PM

Could we do a postcard exchange?

Take a picture of your neck of the woods and send it out---

I know something is happening with homemade jewelry, but I need simple to get into the groove.

Mine won't be the first, but it is out, complete with funds for shipping and a cute lil card. It told me to send it to you. It did! :blink:

:)

deb0670 10-04-2012 03:36 PM

can I join in? I love to be a penpal and stuff

nycfem 10-04-2012 03:41 PM

I think that's fine to do something simple like that if you want to post it and wrangle it. Personally I plan to wait to join a new project until after I receive the Altoid tins from the project BEFORE the jewelry project (I know we are all a little late sometimes but the Altoid tin original deadline and mail out time was in JUNE.). That was wrangled by Rain, and I hope she'll check in and let us know what the status is of that project. The next major (so to speak) project is going to be wrangled by Laruss.

Here's where we are with the current project. Deadline for mailing to me was end of September, though we always make room for a reasonable amount of lateness. That's much cooler than dropping out. So far, no projects yet, but I have heard from Gemme, Tommi, Cara, and Laruss. Unless I missed it, I have not heard from Leftwritefemme, Femmeennoir, LadyRain, and Amiyesiam. I hope they'll check in and give us an update where they are with the project. If anyone wants to send them a friendly visitor message or PM about it, that'd be great too.

nycfem 10-04-2012 03:42 PM

Sure! Just sign up whenever a new project is posted about.

For those who want to do holiday card exchanges and postcard exchanges, there are actually separate threads for that and the sign up list for the holiday cards has just begun so now's a great time to jump on that.

It's been awhile since we've actually just done 'penpal' stuff and I kinda miss it, though I know my schedule is about to get crazy at the end of this month. Sooooooo......I'm hoping to get something out, to just say 'hi' and "I'm thinking of you' before the end of the month.

Deb, feel free to peruse the thread and see the type of activities we've done and if you have an idea in mind, absolutely put it out there! We're pretty open to all kinds of yummy stuff.

But, like Jennifer said, it would be nice to tie up the loose ends of the open projects before jumping into another one (for those wanting to take part in one of our project rounds).

Welcome to the new folks!

Amending (now have heard from Ami via Corkey, thanks):

nycfem 10-04-2012 06:52 PM

Amending again :D

The only people I have not heard from are Femmenoir and LadyRain.

I received the first two jewelry packages today: Amiyesiam and LeftWriteFemme!

I haven't opened them yet, but I am sure they are fabulous!!!

cara 10-04-2012 06:57 PM

Yayayay! :)

Thanks for keeping us all posted.

ahk 10-04-2012 10:33 PM

Hey I was just posting an idea-- which I was invited to do so. I had asked in the past what projects were on the happening of now-- but didn't think I could just jump into something that has already been done.

Don't worry about it, I like the idea and I hope you'll stick around to see it happen.

Of course! I'll stick around-- and I will even moderate/put it together if need be. I had done something like this in the past with the group swap bot, its really fun.

Thanks for responding back--

and Peach (Jennifer), could you give me the heads up when its good to go!
Thank you.

cara 10-05-2012 02:19 PM

I used to participate a lot on swap bot. one thing I liked about it was the rating system made it easy to see flakers and i could participate (or not) in projects based on my own scores.

ahk 10-05-2012 03:50 PM

Indeed-- true. My one goal when I start making more of income is to get back on Swapbot. I miss it. I also missed this group too-- once a long time ago, was I popular. LOL.

nycfem 10-06-2012 07:44 AM

Cara's jewelry package arrived! Yay!

So now have: Leftwritefemme, Amiyesiam, and Cara's jewelry!

Have heard from Laruss, Tommi, and Gemme.

Still need to hear from Femmenoir and LadyRain. Anyone who wants to send them a friendly PM or visitor message reminder please feel free.

So far as usual each person has done something completely original and different! Beautiful, beautiful work!
