Description:

This is my first swap, I hope you will like it.

I love crocheted flowers, in all colors and shapes! In this swap you will send TWO partners TEN crocheted flowers each. You will have to crochet TWENTY flowers in total! You can make the same model/shape, but then make them in a variety of colors. Or make ten completely different flowers. Minimum size should be 5 cm / 2 inch. Material used should be cotton. No other material are allowed, unless your partner does not mind (ask before you make them!). You can also make the flowers from (cotton) embroidery floss. In that case two flowers count for one cotton flower. Do not make the flowers too small (2,5 cm / 1 inch is the absolute minimum!)

Rules: Newbies are allowed with well filled in profile. No unexplained 1's of 3's. Send me a message before you join, to explain your 1's/3's. If you join the swap without messaging me, I will ban you from the swap. This is sender's choice, but try to keep your partners dislikes in consideration (colours for example). Make sure you tape the envelop well and have the correct adress clearly written on it, so it should arrive safely.

If there is anything unclear, just let me know.

Are we allowed to make some smaller flowers from embroidery floss? i.e. 2 smaller flowers could be equal to 1 larger from cotton?

Mieke 02/14/2011 #

That is fine by me, as long as the flowers are not too small. I will edit the swap.

awesome! I love making flowers in general by crochet, but when I make them with embroidery floss they always look shiny and smoother. cant wait xx

Hehe, I wanted to say: I am looking forward to what they look like, but I do not control the assigning-part. ;)

I did edit the swap, because I was afraid I was not clear enough on the numbers. 2 partners with 10 flowers each, means 20 flowers in total to crochet.
