Description:

This is a Beginners Dotee Swap but Everyone is Welcome. Beginners as well as Advanced Dotee Makers!! This will be a fun swap to help get beginner Dotee makers started!! Everyone will be assigned 1 partner to which they send one completed Dotee Doll and a note stating the Swap Name and the Senders name Dotees must be at least 4" long without the Hangers and Tails. All Hangers and Tails CAN be Beaded.(Not Required) and the dotee itself should be Embellished /Beaded as much as possible. Everything in between will be Senders Choice It would be nice if partners looked at profiles for ideas on favorite colors etc.but it is not required. There is no theme required. Please do your best and put thought into the Dotee that you send. Embellish your Dotee as much as possible. Everyone will have 14 days from the sign up deadline to make a Dotee and send it out.

There will be beginners in this swap so please keep that in mind when rating your partner. I am limiting this swap to the U.S. for a quicker turn around and lower postage rates. Feel free to pm me if there are any questions!! :) I will Angel if needed.

Newbies are welcome with a well filled out profile (I will check) No 1's or 3's in the last 6 months or I will ban. I hate to be so strict but I want to make sure that no one is flaked on. If you can't send by the date posted, do not sign up..

Hi kimmer, have a look on flickr there are a lot of good ideas on there..I've done a few in the past and there's a link on my profile to flickr photo's..

Kimmer, Dotees are very cute little dolls. Please do look on Flicker for pictures of Dotees made by others. They can be as elaborate or as simple as you like. Hope we get some participants for this swap! :)

I have extended the :Send by: Date so everyone will have Two Full weeks to send their Dotee out to their partner.

Six inches without hanger or tail seems very big; most directions I've seen call for 3 to 5 inches...so a 6" minimum makes for a big doll!

Thank you Marthy!! I meant 4 inches without the tail and hanger, lol. I must have typed a 6 instead of a 4. I am so glad that someone caught that. I have edited the swap to state the appropriate size. :)
