Ambassador Luke Hatley Posted March 17, 2009 Ambassador Report Posted March 17, 2009 HAVE ALL THE FOURM MEMBERS RECEIVED THERE PAY IT FORWARD ? I HAVE NOT RECEIVED MINE.....
Members wildrose Posted March 18, 2009 Members Report Posted March 18, 2009 I'm supposing there are some that haven't gotten theirs yet; but I do know the deadline for shipping HAS passed. So for those who haven't gotten theirs, the person sending really is supposed to get in touch about the delay. My pif'ers have always communicated well with me about delays, at least.
Colman Posted March 18, 2009 Report Posted March 18, 2009 HAVE ALL THE FOURM MEMBERS RECEIVED THERE PAY IT FORWARD ?I HAVE NOT RECEIVED MINE..... Luke, I feel your pain! haven't received mine either. Johnny
Members Windy Posted March 18, 2009 Members Report Posted March 18, 2009 HAVE ALL THE FOURM MEMBERS RECEIVED THERE PAY IT FORWARD ? I HAVE NOT RECEIVED MINE..... Luke, I am sorry to hear you have not received your PIF. If you send me your address I will gladly send you something I made. WINDY

Members ryano Posted March 18, 2009 Members Report Posted March 18, 2009 What is a pay it forward? Thanks!
Members yotebuster1200 Posted March 18, 2009 Members Report Posted March 18, 2009 pay it forward must have been before my time. or when I wasn't really getting on what is it, I think I got the idea though
Contributing Member TwinOaks Posted March 18, 2009 Contributing Member Report Posted March 18, 2009 (edited) Egads! New Members have been missing out!!!!! A 'PIF' or 'pay it forward' is a gift that you make and send on to another member. IIRC, Tina had the original idea, then Wildrose managed one, and I did the last one. It's a great way to get members involved in leather projects, and perhaps introduce them to something they haven't seen. We have them every so often and we usually start with a list of participants. In two of the previous PIFs, the member below you on the 'roster' was your recipient, and on the last one we went with a randomized list. You can search the terms "Pay it Forward" and "PIF" and should get some results. There is usually a bit of 'customization' to the project, accomplished by researching your recipient. I think it's okay to do it, but I prefer to just make something in "my" style to hopefully show a novice something they haven't seen. Besides, "my" style is what I'm best at, and I don't wanna send somebody a colored swatch of leather and say it's "my best". Anyway, there's several threads with lots of pages each for your reading pleasure. Edited March 18, 2009 by TwinOaks
ferret Posted March 18, 2009 Report Posted March 18, 2009 Still waiting for mine, but it does take a while to ship stuff across the pond. Come to think of it I'm still waiting for the previous one.
