Firstly, can I just say a huge thank you to everyone who has signed up. As this is the first swap I've hosted, I really had no idea how many people I might get so the amount of interest and support has been wonderful. We have a total of 51 people taking part (which means I will have 2 partners as I couldn't bear to turn just one person away!) I'm so excited and couldn't wait to find out who everyone would be paired up with, so have spent the morning writing out all the names and then pulling them out of the hat again.
Before I list all the participants, I should just mention that I did have a few queries from people, and so have introduced a few extra "rules" which you can find here. Please do take the time to read it if you haven't already. Also, if you do have an international partner, please check out the relevant customs regulations - Trashy kindly informed me that Australia, in particular, has very strict rules, especially concerning anything edible - so it's well worth double checking if you're not sure.

If any of the links don't work please let me know asap so I can fix it. Also, if anyone has any problems, needs to drop out or will be late sending their parcel, again, PLEASE do let me know so that I can try and ensure no-one is left disappointed.
Don't forget, there is a Flickr group here, and the last mailing date is 31st July.
All that's left for me to say now is - get creating and HAVE FUN!!
