I am pretty sure she won't kill you lol. One of my Swapee gifts is bit over 7 inches and she said it was ok, so I am pretty sure she isn't gonna be mad at you for a half inch over.

are we suppose to make more than one gift for our swappie? I feel bad because I only was working on one thing and I see every one is making 3 or 4 gifts. >.<

More than one thing is definitely not required; I completed all of mine over one weekend so I didn't feel like it was too much work to do more than one thing. If any one of them had taken me more time, I probably would have done fewer items. I didn't mean to be first and set a precedent of 3 things; I just figured I should send it since I was done :)

I'm doing three things because they are all small. There is no rule that says you have to do more than one. :)

I'm just doing one. :) Though it is about the max size for the swap, so... heh. Fiiiiinally finished the pattern tonight! It's nothing "amazing", but definitely tailored specifically to my swapee. I kind of love it and I hope she will too! Now to get stitching...

I just finished the first part of my swap gift! I'm pleased with how it turned out, and eager to start on the next part!

Part 1 of my 3 is almost done as well. Been working on the inanimate objects challenge over the weekend because I was gone all weekend and wanted a bigger project to keep me occupied. :D
