This swap is a bit more of a challenge so i'm giving plenty of time for signing up and sending.

You will send one of each item from the list made from either fabric, felt, crochet or knitted plus a small picnic cloth.

  1. One filled sandwich or roll, wrap or burger

  2. One fruit item, or 2 slices of fruit

  3. Snack item e.g. packet of crisps, 2 crackers, sausage roll,

  4. One cake, one doughnut or 2 biscuits

5 Your choice

For example i would possibly send One ham and cheese sandwich, 2 apple slices, 2 crackers and cheese, one dougnut, two sushi rolls plus a gingham picinic cloth.

Please send a package you would love to receive.

As this is a big swap i will be contacting all those who have signed up a week before i assign partners to check you are still able to do the swap. I don't want anyone to be disappointed. If your swap is ready, post below and i won't need to contact you. If you will be away that week, either contact me or post below. This is a big swap to angel!

To join you must not have any recent 1 ratings. If you have been rated unfairly (which does happen!) contact me. You must have been rated for at least 5 snail mail swaps , one of these ratings should have been for a handmade item. If you would like to join the swap you have plenty of time to get some ratings under your belt.

Why am i being so strict?? This is a very involved and big swap and i would really love everyone to receive something.

On my watchlist. I want to try and make a few things before I commit.

I'll be out of town the week of July 4th but should be back in time to get your message. But I do also have everything I'd need to send this swap already made (even though I'll probably make more, for profile specific wants.)

As soon as I saw this swap I began making my items to make sure that I could meet the deadlines. I had too much fun and am ready to send as soon as partners are assigned.

Thank you for hosting a great swap! :)

Thanks, this is my first BIG swap to host!

So kaypendragon and CraftDiva4 are ready, i won't need to contact you two. Wow! I've only made 2 items so far....

I haven't even started yet.. but then i just signed up.. this sounds like so much fun.. I think I might even make a felt grocery sack to put it all in :-)

Do they need jmup rings attached or are we lesving our picnic "on the table" so to speak, lol.

lovecupcakes 06/ 3/2009 #

JennieGee with jumprings are you thinking of clay? This is a felt/fabric/crochet swap.

kaypendragon 06/ 4/2009 #

If someone's feeling really brave, lit'l brown bird has a tutorial and pattern for a picnic basket on her blog. You can find it here: http://lbbspassion.blogspot.com/2008/11/felt-woven-picnic-basket.html

Just to stress the point made my lovecupcakes, this is a soft fake food swap, but anyone is more than welcome to set up the same swap for other forms such as polymer clay.
