January SOTM - Insect Imitation Swap

[TomS]

Even though Sjo sat out this month I'd still like to send him a set of flies if that is ok with everyone?

I am not in this swap, but it is very kind of you to do that!
I thank you for your kindness

Send sjo a set. i don't need any of mine back. Have several of mine sitting on my table. The screw-ups that didn't make the cut!! lmao!!!
BTW i have a dozen tied for the next swap. Need my box back so i can use it to send them lol.

Absolutely, send Sjo a set. I'm pretty sure his address is on his profile. Let me know if you need assistance with the customs forms and "stuff".

[Captain_Mortis]

Yes send sjo a set

[Gigmaster]

Absolutely send some to sjo. We never leave anyone behind......

I sent branhap a PM. Maybe we'll hear something back.

Is everyone ok with only getting one of your own flies left instead of two? Even though Sjo sat out this month I'd still like to send him a set of flies if that is ok with everyone?

Anyone head from branhap or know his phone number? I want to send out the flies today but have yet to hear from him.

I put all the flies in the mail today.

Joel - I sent branhap's flies to you, thinking he could send both sets your way and you could distribute his ties to everyone with the next round. They are well-labeled.

FYI everyone - since the postage rates increased recently the MINIMUM cost for sending a fly package is at least $2.07. That's if it is under 13 oz AND 1/2 inch width or something like that. So, keep that in mind if you are attaching stamps.

And a confession - I changed my pattern at the last minute as well. I got stumped so bad on various parts of the patterns I pick. So in the end, I tied a mosquito.

I have to tell you, I wouldn't have thought of doing this if it weren't for Mr. McGarthwaite (Parnelli). Two years ago I participated in his Beginners' Only Fly Swap. Towards the end of the year school work got so busy that I was unable to tie the last two sets of flies. I was so surprised when I received flies for those months, though I hadn't tied any. So, it was from Mr. Steven McGarthwaite that I learned that type of generosity and so now make it my goal to remain open to opportunities to pay that forward in whatever way they may present themselves.
