Does Anyone Fancy A Russian Doll Swap?

SIGN UPS ARE NOW CLOSED!!!!! THANK YOU!



I've been thinking about this for a while....ever since I made the cushion for G.


A russian doll swap - use your talents, whether they're sewing a softie, a little dotee doll, knitting, crochet,creating a mini quilt, a cushion, painting a picture - whatever comes into your head.

Do you fancy it? Sign up below!!!! I'll leave the sign ups for a week, so you have until a week today to decide (or until I get too many people for me to cope with!) and we can go from there.

jellybelly*jellybrain said...

Christine said...

I think I could be tempted :) I've been trying to persuade my fiancé to buy me a Russian doll as he goes to Moscow quite a bit but no luck so far!

Claire said...

Sign me up (I must be crazy really but I'm in!) xx

Chloe said...

I must be bloody mad!
But how can I resist :D

April said...

Hi, i just found you through Lucy Locket.

I love Russian dolls so can't resist signing up for this please!

Love your blog by the way

April xx

Marie said...

What the heck! I have no idea what I'm going to make... but sign me up.

I think Miss Locket might have started me down the dangerous road of crafty blog swapping with her mini quilt swap. Naughty lady, it's all her fault!

Beth said...

Like I don't have 10 thousand things I should be doing. But I would love to. Boy oh boy swaping is addicting.

trashalou said...

Crumbs! Glad I read Locket just now otherwise it would have taken me longer to get here. Yes please Miss, count me in.

ClaireP said...

Charlie P said...

Ooooooh! Yes please!...but only if my partner wouldn't mind waiting 'til early August for their thing as I'm stuck in Germany until the end of July with lots of essays to write :(

Charlie P said...

p.s. I have serious sewing machine envy :) What are you going to call it? It has to have a name!

silverpebble said...

Never been part of a swap- how exciting. I can make a little doll out of silver but not so hot on the sewy side of things (yet). Hope this will be OK. Might be a week or two's delay as I'm due to give birth soon but I'm dead keen. Emma

quiltdude said...

yes please I want to join the swap, I just love Russian dolls.

Over the years i've collected a few and i think it might be fun to join your swap. FYI i'm from Aust..

Kathleen said...

I would love to be part of this swap! It'd be my first one.

monda-loves said...

i'd like to but it largeley depends on when the closing/sending date is, as i have a few things on at the moment. If it's in 6 weeks or so then count me in, if it's sooner then please count me out - is that OK?
