Xmas Swap!

125 replies since 13th October 2011 • Last reply 13th October 2011

For this swap I've been paired up with Bindiibabe. I've heard she bailed out on some other people during the past month or so, and my work issues right now mean I don't have the time, the focus or the strenght to craft. Do you think she would mind if I send late? Or maybe I should wait till I receive her side of the swap (if I ever do) before mailing out mine?

I don't know what to do, I'm open to all suggestions.

Mary, I think you should wait for her, have you made her items yet? if you haven't, then I would not make them unless she contacts you, give yourself some time off etc. if you still want to do an xmas swap with someone you could ask for a swap angel?

Mary-Don't send or make until Heather responds to someone.

Considering the current situation, where several people have not received from her, I would message her and then if you don't hear from her in a given period of time consider the swap cancelled.

Boo to this situation, Mary and others. I wish we had some info bar on our profiles a la craftster.org that shows our swap history and feedback. Getting bailed on is terrible.

Alright, thank you so much to everybody for your advice. I'll message Bindiibabe and see what happens.

@Abby and Nikki: considering everything that's going on, I must say I actually don't mind missing this Christmas swap... too many things going on. Turns out sometimes being paired up with a flaker IS a good thing ;)

(I'm still convinced Bindii isn't a real flaker though, something must definitely have happened to her... I'm considering sending a letter to her home address or shop e-mail or even messaging her on Facebook...)

My swaps are away to Abby and Amanda.Sent them with tracking just to be sure.
Abby has been in contact and if things go well she'll post tomorrow.Amanda has extra time as she has small folk to juggle.

Enjoy these ladies I 'm taking a break for a while.

Finally got a picture of what Pam sent me!
Everything but the card is in the tree. I'm going to enjoy the hot cocoa tonight Happy And the white disk looking thing has a heart on it but I didn't realize it was twisted around until I uploaded the photo.
