I have the exakt same thought. Instead of everyone sending a frame along with the stitch (or other..) it's much simpler to each buy a frame for ourselves.

seriously. I've spent way more time trying to figure out what to make than I ever would for something for myself...

I love Ikea too ♥ And yes, you can find frames with plexiglass, though I believe most frames come with glass (at least in the States). You'd probably have to go with a lesser quality frame if you'd want plexiglass instead of regular glass.

And, I agree with the planning! It's so hard to decide what I'm going to do...so many ideas! I spent a large chunk of the weekend looking over different games and sprites, and contemplating what projects to make. This is a lot of fun though :nod Making a bunch of projects for someone, and hoping that they'll like them, is exciting :D

Johloh, are we sending our name with the item, or just leaving our name off and when the craft swap is done we reveal who everyone had?

I think we should send name with item...unless you prefer it to be a secret, I don't think it is a requirement.

Yeah, I was wondering that too. I think I'd like to send my name with the projects, just so my person knows. Obviously we can talk about it afterward as well, and with pics! :nod

maybe when we send our projects we could send a little note or card and tell the recipient a little bit about us and why we chose to make whatever we made? just an idea.
