My daughter (10 - almost 11) has repeatedly been asking me over the past year to organize a swap she can be part of, as she too, loves to craft. If there is any interest, I'd love to do a swap for Farmerette's and Young Cultivator's :)
It seems as if there is enough interest! Wonderful. I thought we could split it up according to age - to include Farmerette's and Young Cultivator's. If you could let me know the age of the child, if you haven't already, then I can organize the swap according to age.
I think it would be great for the girls to swap something homemade. We'll do signups until January 15th, and mail out January 31st. Feel free to swap favourite colours/likes/interests to help with the homemade item you'll be making your partner.
Signups so far:
Hailey, age 15 (lovinRchickens) Stella Jane, age 10 (MaryJane) Mia Marie, age 8 (MaryJane) Adria Ruth, age 6 (MaryJane) Katie, age 13 (hudsoninaf) Sammi, age 7 (hudsoninaf) Lily-anne, age 10 (GinghamGirl) Sofia, age 6 (Sobyn)
SWAP UPDATE:
Partners are as follows:
Hailey, age 15 (lovinRchickens) and Katie, age 13 (hudsoninaf) Stella Jane, age 10 (MaryJane) and Lily-anne, age 10 (GinghamGirl) Mia Marie, age 8 (MaryJane) and Sofia, age 7 (Sobyn) Adria Ruth, age 6 (MaryJane) and Sammi, age 7 (Hudsoninaf)
Feel free to swap interests/favourite colours etc. before having the girls send out their homemade item. Mailouts will be February 15th, instead of January 31st. Happy Swapping!!

Let me see if my oldest granddaughter might up for that. She's still a Young Cultivator but she might be interested. Thanks!

My granddaughter, 16, is just getting into sewing. I'll have to see if she would be interested.

My three oldest have their partners and have started gathering crafting ideas. They're very excited. Thank you for thinking of this and organizing it, Joyce. Grace, next time we'd LOVE to have your grandchildren join in.

I'd like my 2 grandsons to become Young Cultivators. Do they have to sign up? Or just start working on Merit Badges? Then maybe they can participate next time you have a swap?

I'd love to have them participate next time, Linda. I think they just start working on badges, but I'm not 100% sure.

No problem at all Shannon. We have so much on our plate right now. We can hardly think straight.

Shannon I sent you an email. I sure hope your feeling better now. We had flu symptoms here also. Glad it's behind us now. Hailey received her package today. She loves it! Already has a spot for the wind chime. Everything is so pretty and well done. The girls are excited to write back soon. Thank you for such a fun swap.
