Doesn't necessarily have to be a particular game series, like we did before. For example, we could use one of your ideas - dragons. There are many, many dragons in games and it would be interesting to see how many different ones we could get! :D

As I said though, we can choose that later - we have other things to do first!

I love the idea of a Stitch-Along. I don't hate the idea of a swap, but they kind of intimidate me. I see all the amazing things people have sent and I know I couldn't live up to that much hype. That, and I don't have a ton of extra time in addition to everything else I'm doing.

But the stitch-along, it would be like a challenge with all of us winning. I like that. :)

I'm in 100% agreement with everything that has been said. I will miss the big swap this year, but that just gives me time to complete some things I've had on hold due to swaps overlapping. One of my "resolutions" if you want to call it that, was to stitch some things for me this year and no big swap will help with that. As for the stitch-a-long, I like the idea, but we'll see if I decide to participate when the time comes.

You could always use the stitch-a-long to make things for yourself ;) That's what I'm going to do. I haven't made anything for myself for ages and I think the stitch-a-long will be a good chance to do so. All depending on the theme, of course! :D

Have you an idea of when it would start ?
And how long would we have to complete the stitch-a-long project ?
I'd love a dragon themed SAL :blush: <3
