Here's a needle case from Mrs B in Australia. I tried to get a good pic of the poem, but it didn't come out. The poem says...The Needle Case
This needle case made specially for you
to keep all the notions
for the sewing you do
So fill it with needles
and fill it with pins
Slip in your scissors and odds and ends
Then you'll be ready
to put in some stitches
On your quilts or your bags
or even your britches
~Mary~

That is the CUTEST needlecase I've ever seen!!!!!!!!!! :D

Ok, I'm opening 3 at a time, because I can only post 3 pics at a time and I'm too lazy to use Photobucket. lol

Here's from Mish, Maine Ladybug and from someone who didn't put their name, just a postmark of Houston, TX

The one that is just postmarked Houston has a nice little change purse that I adore. Courtney is trying to snatch it, but I have a sharp knife! lol

From Mish...another Jim Shore, which I love and a little sewing machine charm.

From Maine Ladybug, a nice Thimbleberries calender and it was wrapped in that yummy piece of fabric!

This is from the person in Houston

Wow! I just opened mine from Jim's Gem (Gayle). She sent me 10 gorgeous floral fat quarters, two packages of chocolate bars (one milk, one dark), a really cool Chenille cutter and a magnetic note pad for the fridge. Also a beautiful card that reminds me of the reason for the season. Thank you so much, Gayle

OMG - my Secret Santa was fabulous. I received so many wonderful items. Wanderingcreek was the best secret santa. I received lovely Hoffman Fabrics - my favorite, a book for making fast and easy bowls, beautiful handmade coasters with matching potholders, a notebook, cookies and candies, a desk set with key chair, a cute spool charm, darling cheep talk charm squares, 3 patterns, 2 cup holders, trivia time desk calendar and a lovely handmade tote bag. My secret santa was WONDERFUL!! Thank you so much. I'm not sure how I will decide which project to start on first.

Thank you so much eimay!

I tried to get everything in one picture so things are kinda squished everythingh up.

In the back is an apron with a santa on it, a button box, matching snowflake pen and pad, holiday napkins, a pattern for a scrappy quilt and batic wall quilt, a super simple sweatchirt jacket and some twilight woods hand sanitizer. Who says Christmas is for the little kids. I couldn't be happier. :-D

Oh did I mention fabric. eimay sent fabric for all seasons and then some. Bolds, brights, florals, abstracts and down right beautifull.

Lost the pix. Be right back.
