2010 Spring swap

Knit-Alongs
1

I have participated in a few of these and had a blast! So I thought I would give organizing one a go! The theme will be Spring. I know it is cold and wintery out for a lot of us, but by the time we get this completed it should be right about the time for those spring projects! I have a basic questionaire, but feel free to add as much personal info as possible. Please PM your questionaire to me by [B][B][COLOR=“Red”]February 12, 2010. All packages should be posted by March 15th 2010. Lets HAVE FUN!!![/COLOR][/B][/B]

I would love to do this, except… This time of year is busiest for me in my gardens as I have bulbs to get in and flower beds to ready for spring. Also, this year we begin the build of the rose bower in our back yard. I won’t have time to dedicate to anything but my plants and flower beds until July.

my swap partner said some things in his questionaire that were not related to knitting so im working on that too. I went sneaking thro his posts too to scrounge up any bits of information i could about what he likes, ect.

I have to make one thing and write a note and its ready to be sent. I got all the rest of the things yesterday. I even got my husband in on this one.

MAJOR hints here on who my partner is !!!

can you guess?:teehee:
