I was inspired by the snowwoman swap to keep the theme of winter, so for another wintery swap, who would like to do a homemade scarf swap? I think it would be so fun to trade useful, homemade items made with our farmgirl sisterly love. After we see who would like to sign up, I'll partner you up, and then we can swap homemade scarves!
Okay, so, sign up ends on July 5th, then, to give adequate time to make a pretty handcrafted scarf, mailout will be starting August 20th. It can be before that or after that, as long as it's mailed before September.
Okay, here's the partners for this swap! Please email your partner and exchange addresses and prefferred color for your scarf. Happy scarf making!

Dear Beth,
Just a quick note to let you know, on my way to swimming lessons for the granchildren today, I will be mailing your package. Because it is Thursday, I do not know if it will arrive this week or on Monday. I hope you enjoy it as much as I have mine. Thank you Sister!

Sisters, oh Sisters, I received the greatest box in the mail yesterday from Beth! While she said she does not knit or crochet much, she made the most unique fleece applique scarves. I have never seen anything like them. They are absolutely lovely. I have already warned my family, "hands off". LOL Thank you Beth for creating something so special for me. I love the fall colors and leaves. Thank you also for the recipe cards and note pad. I hope I can make you as happy as you have made me! I will be writing you.
Fondly, Rebecca

Guess what TexBetsy
The beautiful handknit scarf arrive. I loveeeeeeee your handknit scarf & your note. I wish I could knit. I love the multi-color also. Yes NJ/NY can get quite cold. It will be perfect for me when I have to travel to work at Manhattan, NY. I am soooo excited I can't wait to wear it. It is soooo humid now.
Your scarf will be ready soon...it is little bit humid for me at this moment to finished. I do hope you like it also.
Many many thanks TexBetsy for taking the time to knit.
I hope I post the picture correctly here.
