**Remember Swappers: when you are done making your pinkeep, e-mail me for your person to mail to**
Howdy fellow Pinkeep Mystery swappers!
Now that we know how this swap is going to work, here is a post for those mostly without a blog to record your creating "adventures"...if you have a blog (list it here so we have a link to your "adventure"), you are more than welcome to post in both places. Anything goes girls...just make sure to keep hush-hush, esp when you do get the name of who you are sending to.
Fellow Farmgirls...you are more than welcome to geuss who the pinkeeps go to and see what is happening in the "Land of Pinkeeps" ...plus to get some inspiring thoughts along the way.

Hey PinKeepSwappers
I'm totally new on how this whole things works so I'm not quite sure how to record progress without showing pictures, or can we? I will be checking everyone's blogs to get a feel for y'all's personal style in handwork and activities. I will have to break loose and set my own blog up now. Nothing like pressure to get me going!

Hey Luna :-)
You may certainly post pics,etc. just make sure they are on the smaller size end, due to space on the board. Just make sure when I do give you the person to mail to and if you choose to add anything extra for personalization, make sure you don't make it too "obvious" who you are sending it too.
Now is certainly a great time to get started in blogging fun
Any more questions just let me know

Disappeared for a while. Had some 'stuff' to deal with. I didn't get my blog going yet but will try this week coming. Questions will certainly be coming up. Have to go to nj for a week but will take my stitching with me.

Rebekka....I will e-mail ya here in a jiffy....
Also...ladies, let's do this: when you are done w/ your pinkeep, I will e-mail you on who to send too (like mentioned before)....however, we will all have the same send by date (vs. sending them as completed, I am thinking the last week in March due to everyone getting on these quickly (off by a week or so depending on schedule of course)- that way we all send off to our people about the same time frame, we can also add-on something too what ....what do you all think?

Amy, as long we are not assigned partners( have each other name) there should not be a problem. This will be cool.

A reminder so everyone knows: every one will be getting a different name to send to....so for example, Debi M, sends to (blank) and someone different sends to Debi M (not the person Debi sent to)...And whoever Debi M sent a pinkeep to, will send to someone different (so no "assigned" trading pairs like in usual swaps), clear as mud Doing it this way makes it possible for us to "post n' geuss" who gets what...w/o saying, "hey that one is mine"

Ladies, if you would like to swap an extra pinkeep w/ someone please let me know....so far Rebekka wants to and I think Karin does(can't remember for sure)....so please let me know in the thread and we can possibly do a small 2nd swap group.

I have two pinkeepers done. One is a little watering can with a few "drips" of water out the "watering" front. The other is a mini quilt on an old heart shaped wooden spoon which will hang on the wall. I don't blog and I haven't figured out how to post pictures yet. THat's my goal for this afternoon, maybe I will get a picture of each on here somehow.
