Tiny swap number 2 - completed

[ol' blue]

I just filled the tiny swap in what seems to be record time (less than 1 day). If you are just dying to get in on the tiny swap but didn't make it in, please PM me about it. If there is enough interest, I'll set up another. Or, if you want to start another one on your own, go right ahead, I won't be offended. I'm a bit amazed at how fast it filled and wouldn't be surprised if there is enough interest to fill another.

OK, we have enough participants for another tiny swap. I would ask that the tyers that have signed up for the first tiny swap would refrain from signing up for this one until everyone else has had an opportunity. Here it is--same rules:


Time for a swap using itty bitty hooks. Size 18 or smaller. Other than that your pattern choice is up to you. Signup deadline is Sept 19. Open to the first 10 to post and ask for a spot plus the swapmeister. Your flies need to be TO ME by October 9. Include return packaging, postage (not metered), and a crushproof container. Be sure to have toetags on your flies with AT LEAST the pattern name and your username.
As always, I don't need goodies or extra flies for hosting.

I had thought about joining the swap but I am not that good of a tier and have enough people laughing at me. might be interested if that what it takes to fill another then I guess you can count me in. I will do a zebra midge. Least wise I think that is what it it called.

Don't be afraid to sign up. We have some excellent tyers here, and some beginners as well. But doing swaps is a good was to get in some practice to improve your skills, and to see some different patterns firsthand and expand your fly selection.
So far, you are the only person to speak up, so another swap might not be likely at this point, but I'll be starting anothe swap of some sort in a week or 2 when I finally mail out another one that is running right now. Keep an eye open and join in the fun.

I'd like to have a go ol' blue.
I am not quite sure what but something different from the Spiders(softhackles) I've been tying lately.
