Hello all - and I hope those who are getting tired of these messages will pls. delete this one :)))
I figured out how to find a message buried in the stacks, and here is my first message, complete with dates - and with an addendum to the photo info: "Hi everyone Hearing no nays, a few yays, and agreeing that time flies, I hearby undertake to organize a Christmas card exchange. I am going to follow in Brenda's footsteps, and have one person send to another (A send to B, B sends to C etc.). You can then meet two people, your recipient, and your sender. If you want, you can send to more than one. Last year I received a beautiful Torchon lace candle on a card. My recipient got a snowflake that I'd made from Tamara's 2-pair Inventions. The deal is, make a lace Christmas card for your recipient. If you wish to send something else, such as a postcard from your area, that is up to you. The minimum requirement is lace on a card that can be sent at basic letter rate (incl airmail). No one should expect more - or less - and here's the qualifier: ***** please do not sign up if you don't think you can make a card in time to send it before Christmas! we have had other exchanges in the past, and it is soooo disappointing to be on the neglected end :( For fun, so that the rest of the list can enjoy, I will be happy to post pictures (via Barbara's pages) of the cards/laces if small pictures are e-mailed to me - either from the lacemaker or the recipient. Please credit the designer if you are using a published pattern, or yourself if you are the designer! *You can also send jpgs directly to Barbara ( I hope Barbara doesn't mind my posting her addy) at <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> < so - Send e-mail to me with 'Christmas card exchange' in the subject line, let me know if you want to send to more than one person, and please include your mailing address. I'll take names until November 1 but will start assigning well before then. Let's say December 5 is the deadline for mailing - does that sound fair?" -- bye for now Bev in Sooke BC (on Vancouver Island, west coast of Canada) Cdn. floral bobbins www.woodhavenbobbins.com - To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
