Life cycle swap

Thought this would be an original idea for a swap... at least on this forum. I'm talking about a life cycle swap, meaning each tyer ties a nymph, emerger, and dry for a specific mayfly or caddis.
 
Since each tyer would have to tie 3 flies for each person in the swap, let's limit it to 10 tyers or less. I don't mind if we have multiple people tying the same species of bug, since most people's patterns are slightly different from others..
 
Who's in???

    I don't have the time to join but just wanted to commend the idea! I did a whole multi-leaf flybox based on that idea: life-cycles.

    It never leaves me without an imitation! :)

    If there's no interest by saturday. I'll just cancel the swap.
     
    If I can get 3 or 4 people in on this one, i'll keep it open.
