Pay It Forward

I've seen this on a few blogs already, at first I wasn't sure about committing to it but have decided to give it a go :-) I have signed up on Piglottie's blog, here is the spiel:

"It’s the Pay It Forward Exchange. It’s based of the concept of the movie “Pay it Forward” where acts or deeds of kindness are done without expecting something in return, just passing it on, with hope that the recipients of the acts of kindness are passed on. You all know I’m already a PIF type of person. So here’s how it works. I will make and send a handmade gift to the first 3 people who leave a comment to this post on my blog requesting to join this PIF exchange. I do not know what that gift will be yet, and it won’t be sent this month, probably not next month, but it will be sent (within 6 months) and that’s a promise! What YOU have to do in return, then, is pay it forward by making the same promise on your blog."


My gifts may be knitted, or may be another craft ... I will do my best to pick something that the recipients would like.

So - the first three people to comment and say that they would like to PIF, will be my recipients :-) (you can still comment without committing BTW!) I am happy to send internationally too.

EDIT - all places now taken - thanks very much to my three PIF sign-ups - gilraen, hazy and blog-blethers! I'm looking forward to this very much :-)

What a beautiful idea! Can I sign up with you? I live in the Uk but you did say you would post internationally. I'll go post this on my blog shortly.

Is there room for one more not-so-little one to join up with you, dreamcatcher? It's such a lovely way of sharing skills and blessings with each other - and I'd love to be part of it, if I may?
