Amy I asked a few ppl on the crochet thread if they were going to join. Most said they were too busy but some others said it was too complicated. I am wondering if maybe they got it mixed up with the quilt swap thing you were talking about at the same time. I thought that seemed pretty complicated myself but then I don't quilt either. Maybe should explain that. The MYB swap seems pretty easy to me.

I'll see if I get any new responses in the next few days. Maybe my blog post will get some new members here that join.

I would really like to see this materialize with more swappers.

At the request of a few members, I have moved the send off date to March 9-12, 2009!

Hope this brings more swappers!
