Summer Reading Swap (but hurry!)

I intended to post this earlier, but didn't. I guess I forgot. I forget a lot these day. Does that mean...well, never mind. Just listen.

Kai is hosting a Summer Reading Swap that is going to be a lot of fun--especially for book lovers.

I'm in a hurry and have to leave right away, so I'll just give you a brief overview and then you can go to Kai's blog to read details of the swap.

You'll be assigned a partner. You'll send that partner: 1) a copy of one of your favorite summer reads (or a detailed description), 2) an original art work (fabric, painting, altered art, needlework, etc.) done by you that relates to the book, 3) an inexpensive purchased item that represents something mentioned in the book.

The deadline for signup for this swap is tonight, so hurry over to Kai's if you think you might be interested. I was. I think I was the first to sign up. (Kai says I was actually the 11th to sign up. I don't have a clue what made me think I was the first. But I had a reason. Anyway--I'M IN!) And I knew immediately which book I would use.

You are actually the 11th to sign up & I am DEEEEEEELIGHTED because I think all the swappers who are involved in this are AMAZING! I couldn't get your blog to let me comment the other day but, OH! I absolutely freaked at how many things you & I have in common, my sweet friend! Not just the obvious ones (such as being voracious readers and crafters) but the odd ones. LOL! I cannot stand getting my hands dirty! Loathe hot weather. Love gardens, not the actual gardening (unless you count watering & happily gathering the 'crops'!) Dozens of others! It was a BLAST reading that & a joy seeing your photos! You are such a beauty and I don't think you even REALIZE how pretty up are! You? FAT? Not EVEN close! I may need to send you a brand new mirror!

Love the 100's post. What a great idea. You had to think up a lot of stuff! But of course, you always have good ideas. The quilt article sounded really interesting. I love that magazine.
