Let’s all check in - how are you progressing?
Is this your first time making a pocket letter? (mini or otherwise) or are you a PL making expert?

I made a larger, full sized one once, but I like the results of the mini one better. I think I got in my own head too much with the 9 squares. I am done, I grabbed an envelope from work today. Tonight I have plans, so tomorrow I will address it and send it out! Thanks for hosting this swap. i had a lot of fun. :green_heart: :green_heart:

I’ve made plenty of full sized ones but I really do like the look of the mini ones. Although they may be harder to store in a 3 ring binder. I only have about 2-3 of the mini ones. maybe I will store them in a shoebox sized plastic container.

I am ready to mail also. I like longer craft times so I don’t feel rushed.

This was my first pocket letter of any size! It was super fun. I can see 9 being a bit overwhelming, though. I have rethought my ephemera at least twice now, lol. Still gathering/deciding on that part and I still have to do my about me letter! I should get all that squared away over the next day or two.

This is my first time making a pocket letter of any size! So far I’m pleased with how it’s turning out! I’ve got one more atc to make and goodies to find for it to be done!

I’ve made several pocket letters of both sizes. I like both! I am working on my letters and a little bit more goodies, but almost done.

This will be my second pocket letter :slight_smile: @Lynx and I swapped pocket letters in one of the choose your own partner swaps.

I’m still not thrilled with the ATCs for mine, but I do like them when I don’t think about the time, effort, cost, etc :sweat_smile: So I think I’ll just go for it and finish them up when I have time, then stuff the backs to make up for it :wink:

I’ve made and swapped several PL’s. I find them really fun. Coming up with an idea for each square and decorating them so that they fit the theme and are cohesive is really a fun challenge for me.

I should be ready to send by the weekend as well.

I made a full sized one but that was many many years ago. I’m shooting for sending this weekend but will see.

The gallery is posted - No pressure! There’s still plenty of time!

Also, I am going to do something a little different - When your partner posts pics of the pocket letter you sent them, if you create a new Completed Project post in the Paper and Vinyl category I will randomly draw a name and make you a mini pocket letter.

To be eligible:

  • Wait until your partner receives and posts in the gallery
  • Create a Completed Project post of the mini pocket letter you made
  • link back to this swap so I will get a notification and don’t have to track it down
  • After the last package is received, you’ll have 5 more days to create your Completed Project post.
  • I will randomly draw a name from those who have done the above steps
  • I will make you your own mini pocket letter based on the questionnaire you already sent in!
