Here is a run down for the swap. If you have any questions please ask away. Or if I have forgotten anything You know me. LOL.

There are 11 of us signed up. Yippppppeeeeeee so you need to send 3 beads, please put 2 matching beads (if possible) in a bag for each person, the third bead can be attached to a card with your name, swap date of March 2012, and the title First Ever Black Cat Bead Swap. If you would like to include what paper you used in case someone wants to make more beads out of that paper. I realize we have some serious beading ladies that are making their own designs so don't worry about it. I just want everyone to have fun and enjoy this. No stress or worries about any of it. We are all new at this and I am sure mine will be interesting lumps. LOL.

The packages need to be mailed no later than March 17th, And Whizzy and Kate, we know yours will take a little longer, but don't feel you have to rush and get done super early.

There are 11 of us, so everyone should contribute 33 beads or 11 bags each. Thank you all for making this such a fun challenge, I have gotten to know more people skyping and I am really enjoying myself. If I have left anything out just hollar and I will make sure I correct it.

Ok let me show one of my moments, Was double checking to make sure I hadn't missed anyone. Only counted 10, went over the list. Still only 10. Whoooooops forgot myself. LOL

I need to learn this skypeing thing. DS signed me up for it, now to remember the skype name.

I am so excited about this bead swap. I'm experimenting with different things, because this seems like a perfect time to do it. I printed out some paper that I am going to foil later this week and see how that goes. I printed several different ones to see what will look best.

That will be very pretty, I love the way foiling looks on stuff.

Oh...Yay...I found where you are doing the swaps!! Now..where can I go to see what beads you are all making. I want to try to make some beads. Send me where ever I need to go :0)

They are so pretty Rachell you did a wonderful job. Thank you for participating.

Ok Now I am going to be really bad, I wanna keep them allllllll. Know what else. I had no clue Ottumwa was a real city. I watch MASH, and thought it was pretend. See I even learned something already from this swap.

Susan...you are too funny!!

Maybe I should inspect these beads...make sure they are safe....
please send them to me...

WHOOOOOO HOOOOOOO I received Lesa's and Elizabeth's beads today, a lot more for my collection. RANSOM them all for chocolate.

Ladies these beads are really pretty.

And I received a very lovely card and some Washi tape from Elizabeth. Thank you sooooooooooo much. I love it all. Ok I will be good now and send everyone their beads.

That was fast. I just mailed them on Monday, with regular postage! Glad you like the little surprise, Suzan.

I do, I love it, I can't wait to try it out. Thank you again.

You are very very welcome!

Suzan,

I am not going to be able to post until Monday. I have made my beads and cards but I have not finished coating the beads. I am going to have a few hours sleep then pack and head for the airport.
I am sorry. I will understand if you take me out of the swap. I only got half of my BIL gifts made too for his surprise 60th but he will love it.
I will take my computer with me so you can yell at me.

Don't even worry I WILL NOT TAKE YOU OUT. They technically don't have to be mailed until the 17th and no one is going to yell at you. They may pick on you but that is ok, it is all in fun.

Thank you Suzan, I am coming unglued here. I have 3 hours to shower,wash my hair, pack and leave. I am so tired I just want to cry but I love my BIL. It just took me too long to make a bead winder that my hand could use and learning to dip them in UTEE is an experience. Don't expect perfect but I have kept mine all the same colour.
Have to run, love you all and I will practice not being grumpy on the plane. I will still take my computer so anyone can yell at me.

Kate you at least got them mostly finished. I didn't even get my ATC done. Why would they hate you? I hope you can relax and have a good time!!! Suzan is a honey and if she said she would help, she is wonderful in helping!!

Can't wait to see these treasures!!

Kate- safe travels, enjoy your visit and DON'T worry about your beads!

OOOOOOHHHHH I just got another set of beautiful beads from Kim. This is so exciting. They too are beautiful. And I love all the colors that have come so far.

Ladies in the swap, at the top post I am putting the date I received your beads. Thank you all this is really been nice hosting.
