I am deep in the trenches of hand-matching our Sewing Buddies for 2016!! If you haven’t signed up yet but would like to join us, TODAY is the very last day to do so–get in under the wire and find yourself a sewing pen pal for the year!
If you ARE registered, please be certain to complete the survey, which you can find on the main Buddy page. The survey results are what I use to match you with your Buddy, so if you don’t complete it, you won’t get a Buddy!
I am beyond excited to see so many familiar faces back this year, and just as many brand-new folks looking to make a sewing friend. I have some really fun monthly posts ready to go for you all, and can hardly wait to see what all of you will accomplish this year!

February 2, 2016 at 8:15 pmI sent your Buddy introduction to your email already! You should have received it last night, but let me know if it didn’t arrive. 🙂

February 4, 2016 at 5:32 pmI signed up and got a paypal receipt (2/1) but haven’t received anything to fill out the buddy survey, how do I find the survey? Thanks!

February 5, 2016 at 9:19 pmHi, Bethany! The survey is linked to the first post on the Sewing Buddy group page, here (you’ll need to log in on the site to access the content):
https://whip-stitch.com/ecourses/lesson/welcome-to-the-2016-sewing-buddy-project/
It’s also pinned on the Sewing Buddy private Facebook group, and the link is in the PDF you received when you registered. If none of those works for you, let me know and we’ll get you all sorted!

February 6, 2016 at 5:35 amThanks Deborah, I just completed the survey, hope I’m not too late! I signed up via mobile, maybe I made a typo in my initial submission, but for whatever reason I never received any emails from you when I registered (just the palpal receipt that I paid), if you are able could you double check that my email address was entered correctly? Sorry to be a bother!

February 13, 2016 at 10:27 amNext year. I’ve watched this for 3 or 4 years now but never felt like I could commit. I don’t want to be a disappointment! I probably could have done it this year, but I didn’t get signed up quick enough. Bummer for me!
Deborah
February 15, 2016 at 1:29 pmI would love to have you be part of it, Treen! Would you like to be on the wait list as an angel to replace any Buddies who aren’t able to complete their commitment? I’d be happy to put your name down!

February 16, 2016 at 10:38 amI signed up, completed the survey and am corresponding with a sewing buddy. However, I cannot sign in, and can’t access any of the content, like a February sewing challenge? Please help!

February 17, 2016 at 8:33 amI sent you an email, Sherry, but let me know if you have any other trouble! Hope you and your Buddy have an awesome 2016!
