March mamas swap is on (closed: send gift by March 1!)

So, Ravenmoon organized a swap last fall and suggested we do a swap for out babies later. I've been looking forward to this as I couldn't do the last one. So, whoever is in will each make (or buy) something special for one other's baby. Maybe we'll keep the $20-30 limit?

Not much time left, we better get cracking! Let me know if you want to participate by Feb 5 and send a swap gift by March 1. Just PM your address to your giver. You might want to post here if you're going to be CDing, having a boy, girl, or surprise, or any other useful info.

Here's the swap list:

MamaSpruce gives to Ravenmoon
Ravenmoon gives to Simplehome
Simplehome gives to Mommyto2
Mommyto2 gives to Minim
Minim gives to Bubbles
Bubbles gives to Finnsma
Finnsma gives to Mtm
Mtm gives to Teensy
Teensy gives to Rad
Rad gives to JoyfulMomma
JoyfulMama gives to Nu Mommy 2003
Nu Mommy 2003 gives to Jenniebug
Jenniebug gives to Crayon
Crayon gives to MamaSpruce

And the last to sign up will give to me! Looking forward to knitting or sewing for one of you too! (ooh, for Ravenmoon's baby girl, I can get started!) Shannon

I'm in!

We think we're having a boy, and we'll be CDing. If anything diaper-related is coming my way, medium-ish sizes would be more helpful than small--we're all set there. And I love wool!!!

I am in too, but haven't done it before. Can I get the exact info from the past thread as to my part of the swap?
I don't know what I am having . We are cding and I would love smalls and mediums. I love wool too. I love all natural baby products (WAHM are great!). I love organic fabrics for clothes, but not dead set on it.

Oh yeah! I'm in too!

We're having a girl and of course are cloth diapering! I have big 9-10 pound babies so medium sizes only please. Love wool, and well... everything. Have tons of pockets/inserts though as I'm the Ducky Buns lady. lol

I hear you, we are running low on time. Let's do better and get going now. Then we'll just add people until Feb 15. Sooo, see my OP edited above!

Hi everyone,
Hopefully you have all noticed you can get started if you like (except last on the list) because I'm adding names progressively until the swap is closed. I decided to close it next Saturday, Feb 5 instead of Feb 15th, as it seems like sign ups are slowing down. And, I don't know what I thinking having the sign up so long, my first swap organizing and all...

So sign up this week if you haven't yet and want too. Can't wait to hear about thoughtful gifts received among us!

Just want to make sure I know the rules... Limit is $20 - $30? The gift can be purchased or hand made? And sent by March 1st? Is all that right?

About us - we are having a surprise & we CD.

If you are still taking names, I will join. I had to wait to make sure money was okay this month

For us, we are having a SUPRISE however, I have made flower diapers I guess that is what this kid gets for having a big sister and only having flower patterns :LOL I do have the feeling it is a boy, but I could be wrong.... We are using Coth (duh..) and I am trying to change the kiddos to wool covers. The plastic type seem to make their dipes smell real bad. I am doing all the normal AP stuff- We didnt sling much with DD because we couldnt find one we liked (we had a new native), but I want to with this baby. So I guess that is it for us
