I've been picked to "PIF"

I just reconnected with a new friend from the UK, Hazel, and she has picked my name for her PIF members. I'll explain as I go along here.....some of you may have never heard of this kind of needlework group.

It's my first ever 'PIF" Pay it Forward experience. This is a totally new idea for me as well but I really do like thinking about sharing my needlework with 3 people that I may or may not know. It's a good thing I have a while to get the pieces done, but I am sure it won't be the full 365 days . People might get weary of waiting. I will give 'til the end of November for you to sign up. Anybody can sign up who does needlework and is willing to carry on the "PIF" idea as well. See, if you win, you also get to start your own PIF entry, and pick 3 people to send a stitched gift to. They in turn will do the same, and the game goes on. So please sign up by sending me an e-mail with the subject "PIF Entry". I hope I get a lot of takers .. it will be fun seeing who wins.

*** This is how it works ***

If you would like to receive something handmade by me within the next 365 days, please comment on this post to say that you are interested. I will then ask my DH to draw 3 names out of a hat on Saturday November 29th(MST). If you are one of the chosen three then in return, please post the same offer on your blog.

This is a simple and a lovely way of spreading joy in the stitching world. I hope that you will join in and possibly become one of my PIF members!

This PIF is open for everyone!

So please add your comment/entry entry. When I have picked the names I will post the names here, and also post you from your blog e-mail. If you do not have your e-mail showing, I will post it here and hope you check back here so you can send me your mailing address. Looking forward to seeing who joins and who wins!

Hugs all around,

Cathy
