Contributing Member ClayB Posted March 22, 2008 Contributing Member Report Posted March 22, 2008 Tina, I think this idea of YOURSis exactly what Leatherworker is supposed to be all about (education, fellowship, and friendship) Projects like this that encourage working with leather, sharing with others and maybe passing on some ideas are great and I am glad you thought of it and are getting it going. It was your generosity in sharing patterns for the monthly carving challenge that started this. You cant blame it all on me!!! Clay ClayB Badlands Leather Art blog Badlands Leather Art Website
Contributing Member wolvenstien Posted March 23, 2008 Contributing Member Report Posted March 23, 2008 (edited) To make this work this first time, lets go after the list, it makes things so much easier. Then if we want to go a second turn we can all decide "how to"...OK? I'm just trying to make things easy this time around. Ok, Tina, If I am reading you right, you are saying you will send to tazzman, and tazzman sends to wildrose, and wildrose sends to cecil, and cecil to Johanna and so on until it gets to clayB who is at the bottom, and he sends to you since you are at the top? Or did I just totally misread what you said? Tina tazzman* wildrose* Cecil Johanna SCOUTER Myriam Froghunter Kani Rayban Bob Regis$ Wood? Clay (M) Banwell Hoyden jammon ferret$ Beaverslayer CitizenKate ETW Grumpy broncobuster rdb Oscar B wolfenstien ShirleyZ ClayB $ I do have a suggestion..... make this exchange happen at the same time.... lets set a date to send the items out.... say in two weeks or a month to give everyone a chance to get an item made.... then everyone agree to send to their recipient on the same date, that way everyone gets their item from their sender in almost the same time frame.... (depending on shipping method and distance of course).

Moderator Johanna Posted March 23, 2008 Moderator Report Posted March 23, 2008 This is a good idea, and I'm glad to see so much enthusiasm...BUT...in order not to disappoint anyone, let's plan this a little bit better before we make any more arrangements. I don't want to let anyone on the list down, and I can guess there may be others on the list that feel the same way. Let's get a little more organized and plan this. Moving this topic to "Special Events", and bringing up the discussion with the moderators. Johanna You cannot depend on your eyes when your imagination is out of focus. - Mark Twain

Did try my best though Clay:-) Edited March 23, 2008 by Tina "He who works with his hands is a laborer. He who works with his hands, and his head is a craftsman.

Members wildrose Posted March 23, 2008 Members Report Posted March 23, 2008 I'd be willing to organize it, but we have to come up with a standardized way for those who want to participate to contact me (i.e. via email OR pm, and a deadline for being on the "list") and folks have to have a way to contact who they are exchanging with (their mailing address, obviously). So perhaps, the best way to do it is to set a deadline, and if you want to participate, you have to let me know your email address and mailing address. Does that seem reasonable? DON'T WRITE ME YET! We need to make a deadline first Holly Moore Wild Rose Creations http://www.wrcleather.com

Contributing Member wolvenstien Posted March 23, 2008 Contributing Member Report Posted March 23, 2008 I know Cailfornia has issues with selling items with Roo in it.... but I dont think there would be an issue with someone mailing something with roo in it to somone in califorina..... there is no money exchanging.... no roos died for profit...

Ambassador pete Posted March 23, 2008 Ambassador Report Posted March 23, 2008 A great idea! I just had a thought- how about sending out patterns? I've been on a belt tear lately and would love to get some belt-purse patterns from some of you. Lot's of us have trouble with drawing patterns and could really learn from them as well as seeing the finished product. Plus- we could share with more folks if they were patterns Just a thought..... pete
