There was no rule before because I didn't expect for something like this to happen, unfortunately, we have one friend who didn't receive her exchange parcel. More than one month has passed since the deadline so I think we can give that as a lost situation.
You all know there are no restrict rules on deadlines for our SALs, the date is set to motivate everyone to stitch and for us to have fun knowing that our friends are stitching the same thing. But life happens, we all have jobs and other things to take care, hobbies come next. So, if you can't reach the goal it's ok, just try to catch up as soon as you can. The only rule is to stitch and have fun while doing it :) Remember, I'm talking about
SALs.
When it comes to
exchanges, that's different. We are not stitching for ourselves, we are assuming a commitment to send a gift to another friend. A friend who will do the same thing and who will be waiting for the mailman to bring her something too :) It's important to respect the dates, that means you're respecting your partner too.
Again, life happens! I know! If you can't do it on time, just send an email to me or to your partner. Takes only two minutes to write an email and let someone know that you weren't able to post on time but it's not forgotten.
But.. if nothing is said, what should we do?
I will assume the responsibility and send a parcel to our friend who's waiting with her empty mailbox. No sad faces around here =)
I also think that the person who failed, should not sign in again for any other exchange, do you agree? She can continue on the blog, post her works, stitch for SALs but no exchanges allowed. What do you think? Please, it's a group blog so feel free to share you opinion too :)
