I am mailing off my 99 inchies today for the inchie swap I'm in
... just in the nick of time too ...
It feels like I haven't been in a swap for ages
The way it works is like this:
Make and send your pieces to the host;
who then divides them all up equally;
and mails them back
... so 99 of mine go out ...
.... 99 of other people's come back ....
this one is a favorite - I don't know if I can part with it
and this one is too.
I think I have time before today's mail to make 2 more inchies so I can keep these babies.
That's the hardest thing - giving up art babies.

These are WONDERFUL! I agree... it is difficult to give up art babies sometimes :)
Hope your week is wonderful!
I know just how you feel about sending your beautiful art "babies" away, Kimmie. It's like sending away a piece of your heart; and in essence, you are! But think of how happy the other artists will be to receive your awesome inchies! Hugs, Terri xoxo
PS I hope you DO have a chance to make a few duplicates for yourself!!!
Oh - bless the 99 inchie sorter person. And 99 envelopes. Oh my! Love the ones you want to keep.

Yes it is difficult giving them up... I love all the butterfly ones... and that little Painted Bunting is adorable!
I am still trying to get over the amount!!! 99!!! yikes!!!
hola kimmie!!!!this is a party of inchies!!!!!they are more than beautifull!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!lots of minie creations and an enormous talent!!!!!hermoso kimmie!!!!besos and l wish you a very mice and happy week!!!!
I don't blame you! What if all 99 of yours are just the best out of them all? Then, there is a bit of regret. I say, take pictures of all of them individually so you can always reproduce any if you want. Or make a card out of the photo or something!
I have been in a bunch of large swaps, but only one that had 100 or more players. Unfortunately, the swaps I've been in, everything is the same or similar. These are all so unique. I would have trouble coming up with enough layouts to make 10, much less 99. You did an excellent job.
I'm not sure how you can part with any of them, really. I'm so into those inchies -- I have no desire to make them, but I do enjoy appreciating them, especially yours!
These are so utterly beautiful. How exciting to receive 99 different ones back. Your work is wondeful!
Fabulous - Kimmie ! They are like tiny tiles - I like the thickness of them. Wonderful
that's a lot of inchies!!! they look so great all together like this. hope you get to keep your specially loved ones.
I love your favorites also- especially the one with the copper wire!!! 99- what an accomplishment!! My 10(!) to you are almost ready to go!!!!LOL
Oh my goodness - 99 inchies! Takes me all my time to do one!
just a note here: it's not 99 players! that would truly be a nightmare for the host!!! I think it's only 12! I'll show a picture when they get back :)
Incherrific WOW Kimmie!
SO wonderful, each and every one, those lucky lucky swappers!
Kudos to you for parting with any of them!!!
oxo
what a marvelous accomplishment Kimmie, i know what you mean about parting with favorites!!
These are gorgeous, Kimmie - and don't they look stunning together! It will be so interesting to see the variety of inchies you receive. A fantastic project.
