Game on! As we approach each crop date, look for new threads from each of our hosts with the magical links to the Pealand Virtual Crops :grin:

Thanks to kitbop, joyfulnana, and grammadee we have all of our hosting spots filled. Thanks for being available and willing to block off a chunk of your days manning the doorbell on the crops so we can all craft together

~~~~~~~

There's been some interest in holding our online crops on both Saturdays and Sundays. I'm all for it, but I can't be available to host every time. I put together a schedule of when I'm planning to host and when we'd be looking for someone to volunteer to host. I've filled in some spots already to give us alternating Saturday/Sundays, but if you'd prefer one of the times that has my name on it, I can switch to the other spot. My schedule is pretty flexible these days.

We use Google Meet, which is super easy to use, but the one caveat is that the host must be available for the entire crop in order to admit crafters as they pop in at random moments.

I've scheduled 4 hour blocks, but it's flexible. It might not be worth it to schedule anything shorter than 3 hours duration, though 3 hours of crafting together is worlds better than not at all. And you can shift those blocks a bit in either direction, but we want to try to keep the Saturday crop as an evening crop and the Sunday as a day crop.

If you're interested in hosting, please reply below in the thread, and I'll add you to the schedule here in the top post.

Whether you can host or not, thanks to all of you who have been making these virtual crops something special to look forward to!

I'm so sorry I missed your thread, glad you bumped it.
I can host: Jan. 30 and Feb. 13, Feb. 27, March 13 and March 27.
I've just taken the evening slots to make sure I'm available the whole time.
We can see how these slots are for popularity and adjust as needed!

You're so awesome! I'm on my way to bed, so I'll adjust the schedule tomorrow.

ETA, done. Your dates are in there. All the Saturday crops have hosts now, so we just need to take care of a handful of Sundays, including this upcoming Sunday. Or, if any of you would prefer to host a Saturday crop, I can give you one of mine and then I'll take the open Sunday for that weekend.

Anyone want to host a crop?

Oh I like having a schedule like this! I'm so sorry I missed you guys Sunday. My day went sideways about the time you were starting.

Anyway, I can't commit to this Sunday, but slot me into the other Sundays. If someone else is thinking of hosting, I'll share lol.

Awesomesauce!

So then, we only need one more host, and that's for this coming Sunday. Anyone? Bueller? Bueller???

I have never hosted in MEET before (only Hangouts). Can you see the requests for permission to enter from an ipad? That's what I have been using b/c I can put it on my scrap counter. If I were to host from my computer, all you would see would be my backside (not a pretty sight!).

If I can figure it out, I could host Sunday the 17th.

Just happy to be here!

I don't use an iPad, so I don't know. All I could suggest is that you open one as an experiment and try to admit a guinea pig. I'd volunteer to test it with you but I have to run in a couple minutes. There's no rush. You can figure it out later tonight

Yes! Absolutely!
The host for each crop will start a thread and will post a link for you to click on.

Easy Peasy

grammadee, great news! I'll adjust the schedule above later this evening when I have my laptop. (Pain in the neck to try to do it on my phone)

Bumping this up for reference for this weekend! I'm looking forward to tomorrow night. I work tomorrow but then I come home to a clean desk to play. I got my December Daily (2016) done today...and just finished 2 hours of wrestling Christmas supplies back into order and away. Don't want to face December Daily 2017 for at least a month
