Hi everybody! - Since the christmas/winter swap is almost finished, I'm already thinking about posting a spring swap thread soon, so that we all will have some time for knotting and sending in the bracelets until march. However, I thought it could be interesting to add some extra rule this time to see, what everybody will make out of it and there are several different possibilities to do so:

I like a) and b), but I wouldn't like a restriction on pattern type - as it'd mean everyone gets the same or a variation of the same thing. Plus what if you just didn't like the pattern type, it'd mean you couldn't participate.

Thanks for letting me know your opinion! - Yes, c) could indeed be very restrictive or even a bit boring in the end, but I've seen other contests, where for example a certain colour scheme was given beforehand; the results were very different from each other and it was interesting to see what everybody came up with :) |

I like the string restriction, or color themes |

How about picking two color "categories" (such as Blue, Orange, etc.). You can use any shade, tint, or brightness in these categories.

What about beads? I like to incorporate seed beads into my designs. I am willing to contribute to pay for postage if needed. |

Great news! I think, some kind of "theme" is the best option. As this swap will be happening in spring, the theme could simply be smith like "greeting spring" which automatically gives some colour scheme with all those vibrant greens, sunny yellows, bright blues etc.

I like the color-scheme idea EdBlair suggested! Especially if you have the choice between two different schemes.
