Hello All,
Rhonda and I have been quite pleased at the number of participants in this swap. It took a little bit longer to organize this many swappers. Now it is ready and I encourage you to look over the list and contact your swap buddy as soon as possible. Due to the fact that this list is a few days late, I am extending the swap deadline until April 25, 2012.
I would like everyone to contact their swap buddies 3 to 5 days. Please remember that you will need to check your spam box or bulk mail box for your partner's email as it may not appear in your regular email. Something like this has already happened to both Rhonda and I! If you have not heard from your swap buddy within a week, please contact me immediately so that I can see what needs to be done.
Please remember to limit your package to the following:
1. your apron
2. your recipe card, and
3. a postcard or a photograph from the area where you live.
We are all living in tough times. This limited package can be mailed in a padded envelope thus making the cost of mailing cheaper.
This is not a contest to see who can stuff the most in a box.
LINKS TO APRON MAKING TUTORIALS WILL APPEAR IN A SEPARATE POST!
There is a handful of ladies that share the same first name. So please, try your name with your email address carefully. Whenever possible I added something like "in NZ" to tell one swapper from another. The list follows:

I hope you have a lot of fun with this swap. Contact me with any problem.
Links to tutorials on apron making will follow in a separate post.
Hugs, Sharon
Thanks for organizing the swap! "Sew" excited! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the info! Can't wait to get started - now I know what I'll be doing on my Easter holidays!! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for organizing the swap!
ReplyDeleteFirst stitches already done :>)
Happy swapping!
Jeanneke.
Unbelievable.. Nearly two hundred ladies who want to join this swap? What a turnout!
ReplyDeleteI have emailed my swap partner. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteHi Sharon,
ReplyDeleteI tried to email my buddy twice,once using my work email address and then with the bigpond account. Both attempts failed aand reported that the email address for Leanne C is incorrect.
Could you check please and let me know,
Many Thanks Kathy
Hi Kathy,
ReplyDeleteThe mispelling has been corrected. Please try again.
Sharon
Yay!!!
ReplyDeleteI've tried to email my partner but the email keeps getting bounced back to me.
Could Barb of barbann3584atyahoodotcom please email me at beccisundatyahoodotcomdotau.
I tried adding au to the end but that didn't work either
Oh my goodness!!! Almost 200 of us!!!
ReplyDeleteI am so excited - I haven't got an apron and I am just so over the moon to be participating in this way to get one!!!
Thank you Sharon for organising this!
Hi Sharon and Rhonda, so many people wanting to make aprons. This was such a lot of work for you to organise, thank you.
ReplyDeletePippa x
Look forward to this fun swap , thanks for organizing this . Let the stitching begin ;-) Sheila
ReplyDeletehi Rhonda and Sharon, I was excited to see the swap list but cannot find my name:( Did i make some mistake when you were asking for names?
ReplyDeleteJacinta
Hi Sharon,
ReplyDeleteAlthough i left my details on the original apron swap post, I don't seem to have made it onto the list. Actually it looks like a number of people after comment 200 are not on the swap list. Is it still possible to be involved?
thanks
Sandra
(sandra dot mckean at optusnet dot com dot au)
How exciting! Look at how many people are participating! Wow. I just emailed my swap buddy. Thank you so much for hosting and organizing all of this.
ReplyDeleteSo fun and exciting!! Can't wait to get started! Darlene
ReplyDeleteOh well; maybe next time... I signed up, bought fabric and everything... perhaps I'll make the next one.
ReplyDeleteWent back and looked for my sign-up and couldn't locate it; it must have gotten lost in transition... no worries.
ReplyDeleteThank you for hosting the Apron Swap! I am looking forward to meeting my swap partner via mail! I emailed her yesterday afternoon...looking for ward to hearing from her.
ReplyDeleteBlessings!
Gail
I left a comment on the original post but apparently it didn't make the list :(. OH well, maybe next time.
ReplyDeletesorry! it should be jchute3 at bigpond dot com
ReplyDeleteGood Morning! I seem to be having trouble reaching my apron buddy--the address I am using is laurenjordan(at)livedotcomdotau (of course, I have changed it and put in the dots...)
ReplyDeleteHas she been in touch with you?
I really appreciate the time and effort you and Sharon have put into organizing this swap!
Thank you!
Brenny
Hi Sharon
ReplyDeleteI too am having difficulty reaching my apron buddy. I have not received a response to my email, and I am wondering if I am miss reading the adress.
I have emailed Audra
Adress wildflowerlynn at cox dot net
Please let me know if I have this correct.
Rhonda
My apron is finished. I just need to decide on a recipe and get a picture when I get an address. I have been in contact with my partner though.
ReplyDeleteaaahhh.. an apron swap!! I wish I'd have seen this sooner! I would've loved to have been in this. I love aprons and have my husband's grandmother's old apron. I like making these for wedding gifts. oh well, maybe next time!!
ReplyDeleteGreat swap idea!
Vanessa
Stupid me!!! I was so excited about the apron swap I had my apron made by the end of the day after it was announced. I realised I had to sign up here, but I had the idea the swap buddies would be posted on the forum, and I have been waiting and waiting....now I see I am too late.
ReplyDeleteI do trust all of the ideas you've presented in your post. They're really convincing and can
ReplyDeletecertainly work. Nonetheless, the posts are very short for novices.
May you please prolong them a little from subsequent time?
Thank you for the post.
