Description:
In this swap you will make a little book that fits inside a matchbox. You can decorate the box AND the book. The book should have at least 5 pages and be of any theme you choose. Maybe you can make a book for the recipient to put small photos in, or a journal for them to record their thoughts. Maybe you could put your favorite poem or little 'happy thoughts' on the pages...The matchbox should be the small type that holds 32 matches. Have fun and use your imagination. When you get your partners, take a minute to read their profile and make your little book in a theme that they might enjoy!

Great idea. Looking forward to participating. Ashley

Oh, how could you? Here I am thinking I need to hold off on joining any more swaps and you come up with this terrific idea that is right up my alley! I love stitching books and I love little things that are small enough to fit into a match box -- so now I have to sign up! LOL

Well, at least we just have one partner, so that shouldn't be too difficult!

I made a little book for the 5 word matchbox swap a few weeks back. I have a photo on my flickr site if it helps anyone. :)

I am not seeing a partner name. Is anyone else in the same situation?

SharonP 02/16/2007 #

Me too. It's up to the swap host to click the button to have partners assigned, which is a change from before, so if this is the first time she has to do this and she's not used to it (having hosted several swaps where she wasn't required to take that step), she may not realize she has to get the process started. I'm sure she'll get to it soon.

Sharon - I am so pleased you liked it. Thanks for taking a picture - I always forget to take a pic before I send. :-)

Is anybody else having trouble viewing the gallery images? I am only able to view the first little cupcake book, when I click next, it comes up blank.
