Hi, I’m trying to eventually host a pattern trade/swap on my blog. I’ve never done this before and was hoping for some tips from someone who has done this before. What type of format, how to post so many pictures at once? how long to let it last? As you can see, lots of questions.

Hello!
We have a pattern swap going on my forum – http://www.saloon.pinup-parade.com
What we did was post pics of the patterns we were willing to swap & exchanged address details 'behind the scenes'. One lady taking part traces the patterns for us & photocopies the instructions. I send the patterns, and have lost one in the post before now.
You also have to be careful as I have know from other forums, people don't always return the patterns!
Feel free to join us on the forum 🙂
dolly, I’ll email you on this. thanks for the offer!
