This looks like a super fun project! I am going to sit this one out since I have a lot going on between now and the deadline and I would hate to be late! Hoping to hear all about it though as you all work on your projects!

Hi everyone! I wanted to let you all know that the Twinchies project is in the mail! Everyone should get them on Monday except for Breathless...Customs makes it difficult to know.I do have tracking numbers so if you do no get them by Tuesday or Wednesday,
please let me know and I can provide the tracking number for you. Keep in mind I am having surgery on Monday and may not be able to respond immediately, and may even have Clay post for me if needed. With that said, I too am sitting this one out...even though I really want to do it...I just know my plate is very full in the next month and I'll also be recovering from the wrist surgery. One more thing...I wasn't sure what to do with the ones that you all made for CCB. Clay and I have occasionally been making an extra of whatever project we are doing and sending it to Medusa who really loves getting things from people in this thread....and I was wondering if it would be OK with everyone to send them to Medusa? |

If folks specifically addressed the twinchies to CCB, they should go to her. If, like me, there wasn't any specification, then sending them to Medusa is fine with me.
|
I agree with Gemme....& .thanks for asking wrangler! :)
|
This sounds fun and I've enjoyed participating in projects wrangled by Gemme in the past, but this one I'm going to have to sit out. Nice idea though.
|
I am good with my extra going to whoever. Mine were not made with one specific person in mind.
|
Today is the last day to sign for the current project!!!
|
My twinchies arrived today and everyone of them is amazing! I love getting these packages in the mail!

These are the project parameters. This project is WAY different than our usual one. Make sure you're good with it before signing up, as we all will be held accountable. |
I received my sweet package of twinchies. I love them all!
Great job crafters! |
Sign Up Is CLOSED!!!
This is the final list of participants for this round!
1. Gemme 2. Breathless 3. Soft*Silver 4. nycfem / Jennifer 5. Cara 6. Wiccanfemme 7. Lyte 8. amiyesiam 9. GeorgiaMa'am Welcome to the Inclusive/Pre-Packaged/All in One /Goodies to Go/Whatever You Want to Call It Project of Spring 2017! Quantity: one for each person that signs up minus yourself (unless you want to make one for yourself, which you totally can) Theme: "Open" if you want flexibility. You will be free to choose the direction of your pieces. They may all be the same or different. This is your creativity; express it! If you'd rather have a set theme, then go with "Windows". Interpret it as you see fit. There is no wrong way, as it's all relative. Instructions: Once you receive the package of goodies from me, pull everything out and see what you can do with it. You MUST use at least 25% of the items sent to you. You may use more if you'd wish but 25% is the minimum requirement. You may add your own embellishments and materials as long as the original materials are still 25% or more of the whole piece. There will be special prizes for anyone who uses 100% of the goodies sent out. Parameters: Total size of each piece is not to exceed 5x7. Smaller is fine. You must use at least 25% of the pieces/items/goodies mailed to you. You may use your own theme or choose the suggested theme of Windows if you are in the mood for a challenge. You MUST show what you used. You can do this by writing it on the back of the piece in addition to your screen name or write it on a separate piece of paper/cardstock/cardboard/etc. Each recipient should have a list of what you used in your piece to them. You are welcome to choose specific pieces for individuals (mark them accordingly, please) otherwise I will choose who gets what. Dates to Remember: Signup: 5/07/17 to 5/13/17 (CLOSED) Packages mailed to participants: 5/17/17 Deadline for finished projects to be in my grubby little hands: 6/19/17 Officially late, and on the naughty list, if not received on/by 6/26/17. Completed projects will be mailed out no later than 6/29/17 Send $10.00 with your projects to cut the cost of the two mailings, please. More if your pieces are especially bulky or heavy and, unfortunately, more for outside the US (sorry, Breathless). *NOTE* I have pushed back the mail out date for the US to give customs a little longer to push Breathless' through. It's a day and a half difference. "For 2017, the rule is if one of our projects is received by the wrangler more than seven days after the due date, or one of us drops out of a project for whatever reason, that person is welcome to continue posting but is not allowed to sign up for a group project again until six months from the latest date that the project was supposed to be due. No exceptions. This rule applies to participants and to wranglers. Wranglers must mail out projects within one week of the latest date that the projects were supposed to be due. In addition to waiting six months before being able to join a penpal project, the person who has not met the latest deadline must post directly on the penpal thread within a week of missing the latest deadline stating that they have not adhered to the deadline (reason is welcome to be included or does not have to be) and, most importantly, the date on which they will be able to return to participating in the penpal projects. They must scroll back and add themselves to the bottom of the list of any other participants who have not met the late date for any project for 2017. If that is not done, then the member is welcome to participate in the thread with "thanks" and reps and thread chat but not to participate in any future projects for 2017. The reason for this is personal responsibility, so that we have a running record right on the thread that is easy to refer back to when needed. And for the purposes of clarification, if someone drops out before the deadline to sign up has been closed then they are not excluded from future projects because they are still following the rules. Example: Bitsy misses the late date for a project. Within a week of that late date she must scroll down and find the most recent list of people who have missed the late date in 2017 and copy that list to a new post and add herself. Bitsy's post would look something like this: 'Sorry, I had the bird flu and missed the late date of 2/14/17. I can start participating in new projects on 8/14/17. I have added myself to the list below: 1. Tony (missed the late date of 1/28/17, able to participate 7/28/17) 2. Bitsy (missed the late date of 2/14/17, able to participate 8/14/17)' This rule must be posted in its entirety at the bottom of all new projects that are being wrangled so that members can thoughtfully consider whether we wish to commit to a new project." Sorry, I am having a lot pf personal problems right now and missed the late date of 5/7/16. I can start participating in projects 11/7/14. I have added myself to the list below: 1. CCB (missed late date of 5/7/16 able to participate 11/7/16) I really hope everyone has fun with this project. I've had to reign myself in quite a bit because it gets expensive sending out enough for this many folks to have the EXACT same goodies but I think I have a collection that is going to make you scratch your head and wonder wth I was thinking as well as give a sigh of relief when you see that there are some really useful and fun things in the package. Again, you MUST use AT LEAST 25% of the WHOLE package of goodies in your projects and you MUST write how you did so. You can do that on separate paper or on the back of each piece. I think it will really give some creative insight for the one who receives the piece. Also, please keep in mind this is more time intensive and costly, so send funds accordingly with your packages back to me. I look forward to seeing what everyone does!!! Happy crafting, penpallers! |

If, in the circumstance that Wiccan does not send me her addy, she will be added to the bottom of the rules list and won't be able to participate for another 6 months. |
My project supplies arrived and Gemme you did an amazing job putting them together.

She is someone with only a single post on BFP. I would like to propose that in the future we have a "30 post" rule that if you do not yet have 30 posts on BFP yet, you are not eligible to sign up for penpal projects. If folks agree, please put a "thanks" on this post. |
Gemme, is this the correct list, meaning that we will each make 7 projects to send to you?
1. Gemme 2. Breathless 3. Soft*Silver 4. nycfem / Jennifer 5. Cara 6. Lyte 7. amiyesiam 8. GeorgiaMa'am |
Quote:
I agree about the 30 post rule as well. Anyone that doesn't receive their packages in a reasonable amount of time, please let me know. I have tracking on all of them. |
Quote:
I encourage people to think outside the box with these supplies. Look beyond their obvious uses and meanings. |

Hi, one of my pieces is going to be a necklace. If you would want the necklace please put a "thanks" on this post. If you would prefer not to receive the necklace, then simply DO NOT put a "thanks" on this post.
