The other thing I want to do again this year is start up the Pay It Forward Exchange.
It is based on the movie "Pay It Forward". Basically it is based on doing acts or deeds of kindness without expecting anything in return in the hope that the recipients you send something to will pass it on!
So here is how it will work. The first 3 people who post a comment to this entry stating they wish to join the Pay it Forward exchange, I will make them something handmade and will have it sent to them before the end of 2011. Remember I do have a small baby here now! But I promise it will be done! I email these first 3 people requesting their email addresses so that I can receive their mailing address.
In return, you will post the Pay it Forward Exchange on your blog promising the same thing to 3 people. Remember though, you will need to have a blog in order to do this!
So who wants to join??? Let's start 2011 with some nice random acts of kindness!!!
Quiltingly Yours!
Andrea
