Description:

Everyone could always use more coasters, right? I try to keep one on every surface that could possibly be used to set a drink on, and I usually end up misplacing them. So how about a coaster swap?

For this swap, you'll be making a set of FOUR coasters for ONE partner. The coasters can be any durable medium (no paper or cardboard!) but must be handmade. If the coasters are made of something like wood, tile, or stone please make sure there is a piece of felt or some kind of "feet" on the bottom to prevent scratching. You may use your partner's profile for inspiration, but it is not required (sender's choice). The coasters should be at least 3.5" square or across (if making a circle coaster), but no more than 4.5" square/across

Recap

  • Make FOUR coasters to send to ONE partner
  • Coasters can be made of anything durable (not paper/cardboard)
  • Coasters should measure between 3.5" and 4.5" square or circle shaped
  • Sender's choice but it'd be nice to look at your partner's profile for inspiration

Swapper requirements

  • 5.0 rating (no 1's or 3's, but if you feel you received one of those ratings unfairly please PM me and we'll talk)
  • At least 3 rated package/large item swaps
  • Must sign in to swap-bot within 2 days of the sign up date
  • USA/Canada only

Please feel free to PM me with any questions!

Do they have to be square? I like making circular coasters. =)

Good point, I hadn't thought of that! Yes, circles are fine, I'll edit the description.

Can I knit the coasters?

Can they be crocheted? If so,please PM me. Thank you.

Knitted and crocheted coasters are fine, any medium is acceptable except paper/cardboard.

I hope you repeat this swap in the future! I'm a newbie so I don't meet the requirements, but I do love making and collecting coasters.

Hi everybody! Tonight's the last night for signups. I'll be assigning partners Wednesday evening after I get home from work, so watch for the email tomorrow night!
