Typing at top speed as this post has vanished into the ether 3 times already, my wonderful linktastic post lost when the flammin broadband crashed again....and again...!
I have a great idea for what I'm going to make and I hope you do too. I suggest something that takes two or three evenings of creativity to finish so everyones gets a similar amount of swap goodness.
Please post by 19th Novemebr at the latest to allow time for the international parcels to arrive and if you are anything like me it will free up December for making presents for family and friends as somehow Christmas always creeps up on me! It might be a good idea to get a proof of posting in case anything goes missing in the busy Christmas post.
Please take a photo of your swap before you send it and email it me so I can do a showcase of swap lovliness in the New Year.
ok here we go...
Lynda and Kiona
Lucy Locket and Vanessa
Diana and Maxine
Camilla and Kat
Karen T and Tea and Cake
Leslie and Solorn
Maryanne and Periwinkle
Tracey and French Knots
Mary and Frugal trenches
If you have any problems with the swap- missed you out,changed your mind, links don't work etc- please let me know. I will email the partners contact details for the people who don't have a blog.
Happy swapping!
I have amended the links that were wrong so hopefully they should be working ok now. I have also emailed the contact details for the ladies without blogs to their partners, if you've not had the email please let me know...I'll assume no news is good news!
Thanks for organising this great swap Jo! It's always lovely to 'meet' new (to me) bloggers. Of now to find out more about my partner :)

Hi Jo

Oh, completely by surprise I came to this blog and it's such a pleasant surprise... when I read Christmas Swap I had to peek.... what a lovely idea and you all must have so much fun.
Love it,
Will check in on a regular base.
I love gardening, cooking, am currently working on a cooking book and I am in awe of all the amazing blogs I find online.
What a way to connect !!
I will be back on this one !
