I had posted this earlier and I'm reposting it because I didn't get anyone signing up for the PIF (Pass it Forward) that I am working on. I was hoping I'd get someone to join in so I would have those 3 people to mail a nice stitched gift to, but no one signed up. I'd set a date of Dec. 31st as the end date, so I'm still waiting
Below is the explanation of how it works
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 January 30th at 9pm (MST). If you are one of the chosen three then in return, please post the same offer on your blog once I have notified you.
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!
You must be a cross stitcher of course. :-) So please add your comment/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
