Description:

I love dotee dolls and I love colors so to combine these 2 things that I love I came up with this cool spin on a swap.

The colors of the Rainbow are:

  • RED
  • ORANGE
  • YELLOW
  • GREEN
  • BLUE
  • INDIGO
  • VIOLET

Guidelines:

For this swap each partner will create 1 dotee doll for each of the colors listed above ( 7 in all). The color fabric you use can have some of the other colors in it but the dotee you are creating should be at least 80% of the color you are representing including hair, hanger, tail and other embellishments.

Recap: 7 Dotee's (TOTAL)/ 1 Partner Basic dotee rules apply. Add hanger and beaded tail as always.

*NOTE: Since this is a very lengthy time consuming swap, it is ONLY open to experienced swappers who have at least 10 snail-mail rated swaps and have no less than a 4.7 in rating. Also ABSOLUTELY NO 1's! *

Please keep up with your partners and the deadline when this is due to be sent out. I will be sending reminders. Also, check with your partners whether they want them sent all at once or one at a time. It might help to save on postage.DO NOT REQUEST CERTAIN FABRICS OR COLORS. THIS IS SENDERS CHOICE HOW THEY INTERPRET THE COLORS!!!

Finally have fun, and sorry but I have to make this USA ONLY. Someone who wants to do an international one can steal this. :D

Can't wait for you guys to sign up. I am getting full myself with all these dotee's. I have to pace myself.

Darn it!! Wish I had the required number of swaps done..what fun to receive a whole collection at once. Maybe I can catch the next one. :)

maryb221 02/25/2009 #

This is fun... I've done 3 1/2 of these already for the swap. Can't wait!! I'm retired, so I guess I have more time on my hand than a lot of people.

MamaD 02/25/2009 #

Just a quick question..do we really have to ask our partners if they want them sent one at a time? I actually would prefer to just ship them all together, I really think it would be cheaper doing it that way, when you consider packaging materials.. Thanks!

Sewingbea 02/25/2009 #

Just a thought-Since it is US only-The minimum postage for 7 -one at a time would be $9.38-can send all in the new priority flat rate box- videocassete size- for under $5- from a money and earth friendly side doesn't make sense to send them one at a time.

mmamodio 02/25/2009 #

You can send them one at a time or all at once. It doesn't matter to me as long as your partner gets them on time and they are sent on or before the due date. It might be easier to send one at a time depending on how much money you have at the time. Alot of us are going through financial stress and its easier to send $1-2 a week then $9 all at once. Either way its up to you. If your partner wants em all at once thats great. Just consider your options.

maryb221 02/26/2009 #

Oh, good. I was hoping to send them all at once, too. I would rather not forget one by sending them individually. I'm in financial stress, too, but I did make room for some swaps at swap-bot.

lovetoquilt2 02/28/2009 #

I would prefer mine to be sent all at once also. So much more fun opening a package with SEVEN Dotees than one. :)

maryb221 03/ 1/2009 #

I'm on my 7th Dotee now for this. Ha. I'll have to sign up for more swaps.

leahsimone 03/ 5/2009 #

I would definitely think all at once is better--at least, I'll send mine all at once. Am having a wonderful time with this swap!

maryb221 03/ 7/2009 #

.....sits patiently waiting for the partners to be assigned. Ha. I know I might not get mine as soon as I send mine out, though.....

WarLordsWife 03/ 7/2009 #

I will also send all at once, I am waiting patiently for my partner.....well not so much!! ;)

maryb221 03/ 7/2009 #

I've got all 7 of mine made already... do many of you? Just curious.

MamaD 03/ 8/2009 #

I've got 2 of them done mary!

mmamodio 03/ 8/2009 #

You guys are speed demons!! Glad everyone is having fun doing this swap.

maryb221 03/ 9/2009 #

Very fun swap, thanks for doing it. I may wait till April 1st payday, though, to mail it out. Since there's tons of time to mail.

mmamodio 03/ 9/2009 #

I think I have done 1 dotee for this. I better get in gear and get crackin! @maryb221 I understand how that goes. You have plenty of time.

honeybee 03/11/2009 #

Some of you are done already?!? I was waiting for partners to be assigned so I could make them tailored to my partner's likes but that's just my choice. I would prefer to get all of my dolls at once because I don't think I could keep track of them arriving one by one.

mmamodio 03/11/2009 #

lol @honeybee .. thats the same thing I was thinking. I am working on mine slowly but surely.

Tunamarie 03/13/2009 #

I would love to enter this swap...is it truly too late?
