Hi Karon,

Maybe this would be a good time to outline any swap guidelines that we're going to follow? (This will be my first swap.)

For example, I remember reading that the swap bear is supposed to be a new bear made just for your swap partner--not an old bear you have sitting in your studio.

Are there other things we should keep in mind?

Thanks,
Becky

I would love to join again this year. My only concern is the last swap I didn't get my bear to Linda until not too long ago. I've been very ill over the last 8 months and after working all day have very little energy left when I get home. Linda was very kind and understanding about this. I received Linda's bear on the perfect day, a day I really needed something to pull my spirits up.

So if everyone is okay with the chance that they may get their bear a little late, if they are paired up with me I would love to join again this year.

I would LOVE you join - you bears are so sweet - star in the making I think, for the short time you have been it.

Just PM your name and postal address to me.

The thread called Bearswap Guidlines will give you all the details.

Consider yourself IN!

You can count me in on the swap Karon.
I have done some great swaps in the past though as you know in the last teddy talk swap I sent my bear out and my partner never sent me my bear so I have been a bit hesitant in joining in again.Better luck this time though :dance: :dance: :dance:
