October Swap; A leaf

I know we're already some way onto the month and several have more than they need on their plates but nevertheless a simple swap for those who can;

Make and decorate a leaf, any medium, any type, free reign, just  a leaf which will fit in an A5/C5 envelope,
but doesn't have to be as big as the envie eg 2" x 2" is fine if that's what you make.

I know Maria is planning to be back in the country at the end of the month so we'll go for Post by Friday 30th this time,
so they can be posted when ready, as soon as I've let you know your partners ;)

1. Karelyn posted
2. Lindy
3. Alison ;) sent
4. KT arrived from KT
5. Cath posted arrived
6. Maria delivered

I guess I'm in this then,
I will wait to see who it to before doing more than picking a leaf.

I'm singing me and mum up

Yes yes me, and i will post mibe in the uk and the person who has me can either post to mums if it isnt late or here forcwhen i get back.

Is it to be an actual leaf or a leaf made of card or paper etc...either is fine as long as i know

If you can do something wth an actual leaf that would be brilliant Maria, but use anything you like to make a leaf was my intention. 
I think I can manage to make yours post free this time, seeing as you usually have to pay more than the rest of us for your postage each time ;)

aww goodie, will get on with it, and er, bring it with me at the end of the month

never worry about the postage though, its such a pleasure getting a craft item through the post.

Would love to do this one, Karelyn, but I need to get ahead with making up the packs for my little craft class next week and for the workshop I'm doing in November: is there a cut-off date for signing up, so I can tell whether I'll manage it or not?

Lynda

I will have to think about this but will let you know before end date.

How about 20th Oct Lynda, will that give you enough time?
Not worrying Maria, just trying to bag your leaf for myself, under the pretext of being thoughtful ;)

No problem, Karelyn: I should know how up-to-date I am by early next week. However, does that give everyone else enough time?

Lynda

We could all start now if we wanted to, unless we really want to personalise them Lynda, so yes, we want to try and make it as accessible to all as we can. I'm not anticipating it being a huge task, says she knowing that she'll be last minute and baffled as to what to do as usual.

Been thinking about this one and think I can give it a go so sign me up please Karelyn.

As you may have guessed I will not be able to do this one sorry

I really don't think I'm going to be able to do this one either, Karelyn: haven't done any crafting for days as I haven't felt up to it. Sorry.

Lynda

OK, was hoping you might squeeze it in, but understandable if you're not well.

hee hee, just done yours tonight Karelyn (suddenly realised i leave on Tuesday, which means it needs to be done by Friday because sat, sun and mon are full on). Anyway, I have a matching table, chair and jumper now.

will bring your leaf with me to the retreat!

Thanks

I posted mint today to KT as I'm away untill late Thursday.

Are both me and my mum on this one? Or is Lyndy, Lynda?

I'm not doing it, Kate, because I didn't think I'd get it done while I was poorly.

Lynda

sorry Kate, yes both of you, just thought is your mum with an I?

I'm pretty sure Lindy is with an 'i', Karelyn.

Lynda

My mistake, easily confused these days!

Presume I'm sending to Maria and is that going to Patty's address?

Yes please Cath

Alison's gorgeous leaf has arrived! Taken pics and will put up ASAP!

I may need the weekend to rethink mine as really not happy with what I've done so far :-/

Er better get it in the post though cath as i leave first thing tuesday morningm sorry

Wasn't happy with my first attempt either but finished and if I can get in the post tomorrow morning to hopefully get to your Mum's Maria I will otherwise will be sent to France.

I took mine out yesterday to post, and brought it home again, posting in about 10!

Made the post but had to send to France so will be waiting when you get home hopefully Maria.
