Thank you seweasy (Chris) for the wonderful batik FQ's and the FROG! OMG, the Frog is a total hoot! He now has a prominent place in my sewing nook. Thank you again for taking the time out of your jam-packed schedule to send me the goodies. I hope your DH is now more completely on his way to healing. Best holiday wishes to you both!

Dutchie, that frog is so cute.

A huge thank you to Ssnare (Sherry) for all of her hard work to make my first Secret Santa Swap a joy!

Sherry made a gorgeous little sewing kit/roll purse for me. The photos won't really show it off as much as I would like. Inside of the purse is a tiny pincushion on the right side. There is plenty of room for me to store my embroidery floss, etc. She even made a needle book and scissor or rotary cutter holder for me, along with a larger pincushion. The needle book has a cloth page for needles and behind that two tiny pockets for storing little things in. Very clever! This little purse has so much going on in it with fancy flower stitches and creative placement of fabric, etc.

Then, Sherry added jewelry findings and beautiful red fabric along with a gentle brown plus some red fabric scraps. Who else but a quilter would like scraps. But, to me they are treasures.

Thank you Sherry for everything. I think you spoiled me. You are so kind and tender-hearted. :-D

See the teeny tiny pincushion on the right?

My Secret Santa pressie arrived from Australia today! Thanks so much Loraine for your thoughfulness. I just broke another sewing machine needle the other day so I am thrilled to receive the needles you sent me. The ornaments, crocheted cat bookmark, and snowman pin are adorable, and I love the fat quarters too!

Thank you! Ho Ho Ho!

She also sent some things for llittle Tinkerbelle...a terrific squeaky toy and a licsence plate with her name. And some pink ribbon that has a Chihuahua with a crown and tutu...she must have known that we call Tink, her royal highness.
Thank you again...sooo thoughtful of you. Susie

To my secret santa, THANK YOU! I wish you has included your name but I hope you see this. The sewing box, patterns, fabrics, angel, and little bits were so beautiful. I simply adore my sexing box, I always wanted one! :) This has been such fun. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!

looks like everyone got some great stuff. i think there must be some hardcore quilters at canadian customs, because mine has not arrived yet...but it will eventually and when it does i'll be sure to share. :)

has homecaregiver opened her parcel from me yet?
