November 2013 PITH pairings

[lyonsacc]

Here are the pairings for the November 2013 PITH!

But first a few comments:

1) Please check over the list, let me know if there are any issues/errors
2) Establish communications with your swap partner
3) Stuff happens. If something comes up that may affect your ability to complete the swap, communicate with each other and with me so we can resolve the situation.
4) Your pens need to be delivered by 12/15/13
5) In a couple of days I will start a thread to post pictures of the pen you receive. Let's have the receiver post pictures for this PITH if possible. However, the maker should take a pic or two in case the recipient can't do the pics.
6) You can post teasers and taunts in this thread.

Let's start with the pairings for the youth. I followed the rules in coming up with these pairings – randomized the list 5 times on random.org. This was the 5th iteration; no sibs were giving to sibs, so I stuck with these pairings (Eric & I will be sending 1 large package to each other).

[penmaker1967]

my pen for ed is well under its way hope to have a camera in the next few days and i will post a teaser pic.

 

[lyonsacc]

We've been having problems. Tried to get fancy with back painting (multiple coats of different colors) and it didn't work, had to clean the holes back out and start over . . .

 

[Buzzzz4]

At least the kids have kits and blanks picked out over here. Now they have to wait until daddy can let them at the lathe. Looks like mid December the Lyonsacc kids will get theirs. Just in time for Christmas!
