i totally agree. i'm eager to see who i got and start, but i'm nervous because i haven't been stitching long and don't want to disappoint. plus, if i get someone with games i've never played/heard of, i'll really start sweating bullets.

i still think it's going to be fun though!

PMing now...38 PMs shouldnt take too long...

please do not contact your partner, it is supposed to be a surprise. if you have questions you can relay them through me, but please try not too...it gets annoying relaying forwards back and forth!

ok. all done! phew...35 minutes of PMing, not bad. I'm going to make someone else organize the next one!

now, lets just hope i didnt make any mistakes!!

(3 of you got swapped up because 2 of the people were friends and already make gifts for eachother, so if you got a second PM make sure you read the correction)

also, I considered telling all 38 of you that I was your partner so that I would score 38 gifts...but, in the end I decided against it, im not sure how funny everyone would think it was.

It's funny that you thought of it, probably wouldn't have been funny in reality ;)

I'm sooooo excited! I was hoping for a specific game and gender for a project I wanted to do, and I scored big time! Can't wait to get started.....

OMG! I just looked at my partners stuff, and I've only heard of 1 out of the 5 games. :confused: I was pretty worried for a bit, but after some long searching I think I scored and know what I'm gona make. Disaster averted! :D

So I've got my pattern figured out, and a thought occurred to me. I want to frame my piece before I send it, but then it'll be too thick to fit in a standard envelope. I just don't want to be frowned upon if I get caught sending a bigger envelope then everyone agreed on. I'll still make it, just let me know if you think it's okay for me to frame before it ships. Just a random thought, figured I'd ask. Now to stitch it!!! :yahoo:
