LOL!!! I was so excited to get the my partners info, then I got so caught up in making a pattern that I ended up skipping class! Whoops!! Bad student!! That just means I'll try and make it early to my next one, to make up for that negative karma!

It's a great way of testing your creative limits!
I'm in the middle of about twenty things at once here, but the ideas are coming! As soon as things calm down a bit, I'll be off searching for things to make!

Is there any rule against using patterns already on this site? I'm not 100% skilled at making patterns and I know what I want is already on here.

Mine is a modified version of something already on here, and BMH didn't say I couldn't, so...

Considering how awesome some of the patterns here are I think it's fine. I never read that this had to be something "original" ;)

I got my person and my gift figured out. All I can say is they are lucky that I bought a sewing machine last week because it will look much better machine-finished!

I have a hilarious idea for my partner, the games they gave... So many ideas! I'm so excited! Hopefully they'll love it. ouo

I made my patterns for the last two swaps, so it wasn't an issue then. I'll be sure to credit those that created the original patterns, just didn't want to "break any rules" for fear of being unable to participate in any future swaps

Sooo jealous! Mine broke a few weeks ago and I returned it to Amazon, so if I want to machine finish whatever I make I'll have to go to the crafts lab and rent sewing machine time...

Just to make sure, does my project REALLY have to fit inside a normal sized envelope? How about a manila envelope? Please pretty please?

I'm really excited about this! Gathering some good ideas now, and as soon as I get my pokemon patches shipped off, I'll get started!
