Let’s talk OTT!

I took part in the very first round of OTT on c-ster and it started on 10/05/2005. Yep, 2005. My swap partner made me a tiny bound notepad and I made her a set of Rothko-themed stitch markers :slight_smile:

What are some favorite OTTs you have crafted?

Well, it’s definitely possible to make a fabulous OTT featuring paper as a major component :crazy_face:

Mini junk journal, collage artwork, decoupaged trinket box, altered altoid tin…and many other papery goodies.

I got the cutest tiny notebook from @rackycoo in one of the OTT swaps. I still cherish it…I filled it with small stamps and papers that I have received over the last 15 years (yes, it was that long ago when we swapped!).

What a lovely OTT treasure! Do you have a picture of it? I would love to see it!

I was looking at my list of completed swaps on c-ster and realized that I started swapping in 2005…so yes, time flies :slight_smile:

I got a fantabulous little house, modeled after the cottage I was living in at the time, complete with tiny sewing machine & couch & my heart-cat Cirrus. Then in another ott swap a few years later, someone sent me a tiny version of my next cat Phoebe, to join Cirrus! I can’t find any photographs of it and I’m really bummed because I loved that little house. It got lost when I had to make three different house moves in a short period of time.

Aw, bummer. The little cottage replica sounds awesome!
Most of my treasured swap items were put in storage when I moved. I know they are safe, but I miss seeing them!

Here is my little notebook…a bit worn, but still looking good! It is just under 4 "…I think we all stretched the rules a tad back then…lol

It looks great and has held up remarkably well over the years!
And I love how the little marker has your initials! @racky is the queen of details!

My first swap on the other site was the OTT round 4, started Feb 16, 2006. I did 16 of them by 2017.
I also participated in the first two OTT secret pal swaps you organized
(no, my memory isn’t that good, I grabbed screen shots of my swap list before the site closed)

I haven’t swapped in almost 3 years but couldn’t pass up on a couple this round. I’m going to send in my questionnaire shortly.
