Got a big baggie full of 2 dozen charitable kumihimo bracelets finished up with the findings and ready to send off. Got bags of at least that many more still to do. I"m a little concerned that I've made many of them big, over 8", where the standard size for most people is 7".
Do I need to make a lot more of them small ones?
Also, I could also use an idea of how many to send along.
Pic from what I got done about a week ago:

Those are awesome and you can send as many as you like! I will be sending the package to its final destination in November, so getting your bracelets to me by the end of October would be excellent (and then you can just make as many as you like in that timeframe. Honestly, we can hand these out for as long as they last, there is, sadly, no shortage of foster or homeless kids.)

Don't worry about the big ones, as some teenage boys can grow quite huge! Or they can always hang them on a backpack; they'll find a way to use 'em if they have them, not to worry.

Have you made any smaller than 7"? Because young girls can have tiny wrists, too, so a variety of sizes would be good.

From:

I do have some smaller ones, but probably not enough in proportion. I will work on getting that size some more. Also, are the metal findings okay for the kids? It's not a great pic, but you can kind of see how I'm using wire wrap and end caps on the cords. I could make knots and loops, but with cords this heavy they'd be very clunky.

From:

james

Yes, they're fine! I think the kids are going to love them. :o)

Oh, good to know, thank you!

The fanmixes related to jodianne's Gypsy story are posted here under Mixing Bowl and ready to link.
I also posted a piece of fic related to the Gypsy fanmixes, and not a drabble as it's longer than that.
If I can come up with a shorter piratical space story, will do.

We've got many of our fanmixes posted ready to go. Some of mine could also use crosslinks to Gypsy Moon, but that's up to the mods on how you'd rather do that. If you'd rather I just post an ordinary link to the relevant story in the body of the entry, later on, I can do that. I said I might add notes, but later when I have more time!!

I posted (one of? I'm not sure if I'm going to have the headspace to do both of my proposed mixes, I confess) a mix! The mix that's a complement to the lonely loser bang, perhaps unsurprisingly :P

We're collaborating on an interesting combination of BB and complements.

I'm embarrassingly excited about all this, actually! It's going to be fantastic. All I need to do is keep writing... I opened the doc yesterday and wrote a smattering of words for the first time in many, many days. Pleasingly, the stuff I've already written holds up reasonably well. It's just a matter of churning out the rest of it cracks knuckles
