I love surprises, especially handmade ones! And I would be happy with almost anything you want to make me (I do have enough potholders and trivets though).

Some ideas to help you out though...

handmade soap
a warm hat (though not too warm, TX winters aren't that bad)
a reuseable shopping bag, or morsebag
scrapbook pages that I can insert photos into

shinianen 08/17/2008 #

I like anything cute and handmade: softies/felties/stuffies, amigurumi

An extra long scarf would also be fun.

Really, anything that matches my profile and is hand made would be appreciated. Thanks!

Hi all I would love anything for my daughters - 2 and 3months, anything made from fabric that is not brown, orange, yellow, prim or naive style. Happy with any jewellery would really love a cool pin to use on a shawl (which i will eventually make LOL) but really just go for it!

ozduchess 08/19/2008 #

I too love surprises but some help is sometimes needed so: things from fabric eg, bag, 12in quilt block, apron; long dangly earrings - pierced; stationery. Have fun and I'll love it:)

Sounds like fun! I would enjoy:

handknit socks (shoe size 9.5-10)

anything for my boys (2 and 5)

small clutch/purse

personalized notecards/stationery

cute jewelry/hairclips/etc.

Or really just anything. I love surprises and I love crafts :)

LavenderLizard 08/21/2008 #

I'm in for the second round! I'd love:

amigurumi (I have none yet, oh poor me!) a stuffie (no wool though, as I'm allergic) apron purse or bag a painting of a tree or lavender lizard (like on those smaller pre-gessoed canvas boards you can get--doesn't need to be stretched canvas or anything that fancy!)

If you make other crafts, though, that is fine. Just look at my profile!

hanjiwest 08/23/2008 #

I also do not have any amigurumi thingies. I adore handmade soap, journals, carved stamps,tote bags, anything made from fused plastic, crazy spun yarn. I also enjoy being surprised and I am sure whatever I receive will be wonderful simply because it is handmade.

OnyxLight 08/24/2008 #

I'm pretty open to just about anything handmade, but heres a few ideas: -an apron (dont have one, and it would be nice since the kitchen is where I spend most of my time:) -I dont have any amigurumi -Any funky jewlery/hairclips -a loooooonnnng scarf but really, just about anything would be cool, like getting a present in the mail :D

barmeychick 08/25/2008 #

TiamatDesign 08/25/2008 #

Hi, I would like a carved stamps, a Vintage style chunky pages,a cute stuffie, or something you find I'll like from my profile...I love getting handmade surprises :)

leahsimone 08/25/2008 #

I would truly love to receive whatever is your crafting specialty. I am very easy to please, especially when it is something handmade. So, surprise me! I can't wait!

snpyrunner 08/25/2008 #

I would LOVE a handmade bag! If you're not the sewing type... perhaps a handmade sketchbook? Maybe you knit or crochet? A scarf or hat would be nice too... something oh so soft! Handmade soap is awesome too!

Juls 08/26/2008 #

Hi all,

I'd like Mini Album (for my daughter's pics) Fabric Purse / Purse organiser Rag Doll Baby Blankets / afghans carved stamps.. Check out my profile for more ideas

cass1272 08/26/2008 #

Tee-hee so excited! Honestly, I would love for someone to send me what they like to make. I am really easy. I appreciate all things handmade. I am a mom of three boys so I really appreciate girly and pink things. Do you have something you especially like to make? I love that!

astarael 08/26/2008 #

i would like to receive: anything from my profile (for example, in my profile i say i like deer so anything handmade to do with deer...that's just an example, it could be anything to do with things that i say i like in my profile), a tote bag (preferably big enough to fit an A4 sized exercise book, beaded earrings (nothing too big, i don't really like earrings that look like you have an entire chandelier hanging from your ear), handmade candles or soap (prefer "spicy scents" e.g. cinammon, vanilla etc. to fruity scents), anything made of paper...

pretty much anything would please me and i think my profile is pretty filled out so that should help!

euphoria 08/26/2008 #

What a neat swap! I can't wait to get a partner and make her something wonderful. :) There are several ideas on my profile, but I'll list some here: a handbag - I am a handbag fanatic, seriously can't get enough. I like the kind that have a flat bottom (so they can "sit up" instead of lying down) and with at least two pockets. I would love a few different colors/styles of pretty wrist lanyards because I have to carry an electronic key around with me at work. Amigurumi - love it. I prefer cats, ducks or cute "monster" type creatures. Love handmade (from scratch) books and journals, so long as they're of a good size (6" or larger). If you knit or crochet, I'd love a very lacy shawl or stole in cream or black (for draping on my shoulders when the A/C is too high).

If any of the above isn't a good match for my partner, just pm me and we'll go from there! I love handmade and am easy to delight!

Eden 08/27/2008 #

Hey!

I love anything handmade. And there are ideas on my profile, however here's a list anyway:

*Handmade Stuffed Animal, hedgehogs, seals and owls are my favorites

*A cool hand bag, or tote bag

*A handmade Journal or Sketchbook

*something to do with Alice in Wonderland, Harry Potter, Oscar Wilde or other stuff from my profile.

*Anything from felt....like a cool keychain or hairpiece....whatever

Something made with love!

picxie 08/28/2008 #

now ive been watching this swap for weeks now.. time to take the plunge i guess....

id love anything handmade especially for me :) i am fascinated by made jewellery (chunky bracelets especially) .. i love altered things too. im totally rubbish at sewing, so something like a tote (another obsession of mine) would be totally awesome... but seriously, i love surprises.. so just be happy and have fun and ill be sure to love it :)

motox 08/28/2008 #

I would be happy with anything, I just love receiving things in the mail :)

Foxtwins 08/28/2008 #

I'm so glad I found this swap in time! It sounds like great fun! If you can sew, I am a bag junkie....reusable shopping bags, tote bags, morsbags...anything I can put the latest knitting project in or take to the farmers market would be great. If you can crochet, I would be interested in a penguin, hedgehog, or robot amigurumi....I don't have any yet. If you do beadwork I love handmade necklaces, bracelets, and jazzed up hair clips/ties. I love images of leafless trees, it doesn't matter if it's a drawing, painting, a bigger photo or embroidered....whatever you can think of! I really need something for the kitchen to keep scrubbies and sponges in. If you make pottery or can think of some funky way to decorate a plain container that would be waterproof, that would be awesome! I would like it to be around 4" round or square or whatever. If none of this sounds like something you can or want to do, check my profile. I think it's pretty well filled out. Or you can PM me and let me know what your favorite craft is, I'm sure we can figure something out! All of my color preferences are listed in my profile. I love handmade so this should be a great surprise to get!

vale1987new 08/29/2008 #

i don't have a preferens...i'm so happy to receved anything...

janien 08/29/2008 #

I love ... anything you will sent ! But if I have to name a few things ... socks - a purple hat - anything with cross stitch on it - long earrings - handmade cards - oh this is so difficult ! Love what you will make I am sure about that!

SEMOkraftee 08/29/2008 #

I'm easy to please. I will name just a few things I prefer not to receive ~ sock monkeys, no erotica, or dark themed stuff.

I can't paint or draw, so something hand drawn or painted would be great.

I don't knit or crochet, so any little "whimsy" hand knitted or crocheted by you would be great.

I love costume jewelry (not real long dangly, short dangly is OK) so, if you are a jewelry maker, that would be great.

A DOTEE doll would be great. I've not ever actually seen one. But I'm going to make some soon.

Hand made cards or an altered tin, matchbox...something along that line.

I'm sure I'll be happy with whatever you choose. ;-P

barmeychick 09/ 1/2008 #

I thought i'd better add to my details to help my partner out:o)

I would love a crocheted or knitted hat. Any style as long as it covers my ears:)

Some knitted stripey socks would be fab.

I SOOOO want a handmade bag/purse.

I love SHEEP so anything sheepy works well

And did i mention a handbag?????????
