Why is this US only? I would love to participate

Unfortunately, I have already spent a small fortune over the past year on international swaps. Please feel free to start an international swap if you want one. I am sure you would probably get a lot of participants.

Will we have the same partner for all 10 swaps? Also, do we have to sign up each month or just send out on our own each month?

lcove2000 02/12/2010 #

You will need to rejoin each month that you are able to do so. I am doing this because sometimes things come up in people's lives that they have little or no control over, ie. illness, deaths in the family, etc. This way we don't get bad ratings over it.

We will probably have different partners each for each swap

This sounds like a lot of fun and something to look forward to each month. I was on a website called "Crochet Pattern Central " and they have beautiful 12" squares.
