Hey everybody...we had so much fun on the last one, i thought I would start another one!! I will probably not make as great of presentation as Kitchen Witch did before, but I will try!!
Let me see...theme: fall/halloween/Harvest/back to school type stuff
Sign up in groups of 18 or 36.
I will leave sign ups open until September 5th.
Then, they will be due to me by October 1st!!! When you send them to me, please include some cash for their safe return to you. In the meantime, I will figure out what it will cost to send them back to you!!
After the sign ups end I will send you all my address.
Any questions?

I told Carmen not to worry about it, it will be easier to swap 18 pins with 9 participants!! So, all the 18ers are here. I will start to compile packages for everyone over the weekend. I will be out of town one of the days, but hopefully they will all go out early in the week next week. 36ers..we are still waiting on 2, so hold tight...you will get them dont worry! |

Jessica, and all of you, thank you so much. They are so much fun. Now I need to get brave enough to keep using the clothesline. Freeze-drying. Brr.

My Mom also used to take clothespins and decorate them with a mitten type hand out of felt...add a bit of lace around the cuff and gave them as gifts to be used as a book mark.....so cute too. Erica:) |

oh yay!! i am so glad you love your pins!!!!!! Magnets are a great idea. If you cut out a circle with pinking shears from starched fabric, then accordion fold it, you can put it on the clothespin to make wings and use pipe cleaners as antennae...makes good pins with magnets, too |

Yep, it was me!!! I am so pleased so many of you loved the magnet on the back....my 8yr dd loved the idea so much too that she made her own and gave them as gifts to her friends and teachers...then my husbands grandmother wanted some for her fridge and now my Mom wants some too....I love all my pins too....everyone did such a wonderful job. This was my first swap and it has truly been a lot of fun! Looking forward to many more:) Erica:) |

Carol Sue--that is very cool!
I have a circular black/like rought iron decoration. I pinned all of them right on it...until I take them outside to the clothesline. I wished I had more of them....I only did the 18. I am using the magnet one on the frige..but I don't know who did it.
Can someone tell us who did the magnet pins? Thanks!

I have been g0ne f0r a few days, yes I g0t mine and abs0lutely l0ve them. 0ne 0f mine had a magnet 0n it and my mind went a buzzing. I d0n't have a cl0hesline yet, spring this c0ming year, but I d0 have a sh0p light 0ver my sewing machine and sunlight bulbs in them. What is the sh0p light but metal that magnets l0ve, yep y0u guessed it glueing 0n magnets and making a very pretty light fixture. D0n't ya just l0ve it. Then I can stare at them every time I am in my sewing r00m. N0w h0w c00l is that!!!!

The clothespins arrived on Monday. My Birthday. What a fun extra surprise. I love them everyone of them are so special. Two of my sons (26&19) did not quite get why I would want to do such a thing but I told them they would understand more when I willed a few to each of them when I am gone. The rolled their eyes. Thank you ladies for all your hard work and to Jess for taking the time to make this swap possible.
