Notes: The send date for this swap could be extended, based on the unfolding of the Coronavirus epidemic. We will keep this possibility open as the situation develops.
The original proposed requirement of purchased extras for this swap are now optional, for those who cannot pick up these extras by shopping online.
Finally, I am suggesting that everyone think about what they can make for their partner, with items that exist already in your own craft stashes. Flex your creative muscles by trying to create something beautiful from supplies that are already on hand.

SWAP OVERVIEW
- Either 1 Large crafted item OR 3 Small-to-Medium crafted items. You are free to choose between these options. It is highly encouraged that you talk to you partner about your preferences and choices. Either way, you should consider this a chance to ‘go bananas’ crafting something really lovely for them.
OPTIONAL: The second requirement for this swap was going to be 2 purchased small extras, based on your partners likes. Considering the current situation with the Coronavirus, I am making this portion optional. Some people might be able to order extras, while others might not have that luxury. I will allow people to send an extra from their own stash, provided it is a new/unused item, that they think their partner would like or appreciate. There will be a question below about whether you wish to do the extras portion of this swap, and I will attempt to partner accordingly. - You must send a private message to the organizer, @MistressJennie and your assigned partner, when you send your package and when you receive your partner’s package.
To participate, post at least once in this swap thread and send a private message containing the following questionnaire information to @MistressJennie:
