Embroidery in a Hoop Swap

Do you love to embroider? Are you new to embroidery, and want an opportunity to practice? Would you like to start collecting finished embroidery pieces from around the world? If you said yes to any of these questions, then this swap is for you!

This is a swap for finished embroidery samples in hoops. The embroidery hoop must be 6"/15.2cm. You can use any embroidery techniques that you would like to do. You can make any pattern or picture of your choosing, as this first swap is purely sender's choice. Just make sure that you make something that you are proud of, and that you would like to receive. The hoops must also be nicely prepared for hanging. It would also be nice if you could somehow attach your name, date completed, and minimal contact information or your Swap-Bot name to the back of your piece. If you aren't sure how to prepare your piece for hanging, there is some great information at the following site: Preparing Hoop for Hanging at Wild Olive

I would really like to have an ongoing embroidery hoop swap, with different sizes, themes, colors, etc. each time, so I hope there is a lot of interest! If you have any questions or concerns, please message me!

Everyone, including newbies with a well-filled profile is welcome! However, I will be checking profiles and ratings, and will ban any questionable swappers or those with any 1's or unexplained 3's. I hope I don't have to do this, as I would love for everyone to be able to participate, but I must protect all of our good swappers! It isn't fair to put a lot of time and effort into a swap and have your own partner flake on you. That said, please let me know if you have any problems!

Because this is sender's choice, please rate a 5 if they sent you a completed 6"/15.2cm hoop, even if the design isn't to your taste. Please also remember that all skill levels are welcome to join!
