Mine was a little silver cross on a chain that one of my grandsons picked out himself. I is very pretty and hangs perfectly! Love it!

We made some purchases together...we got a new tv, as the old one was starting to act up, we got a WII, as we've decided that we're not going out as much this year and will have that to play with at home for no additional costs, and a GPS for the car, because I get lost, A LOT! :lol:

When we went to Idaho for Christmas, he took me "junkin' " one afternoon, and we found a Hinterberg quilting hoop in one of the second hand stores, with two additional hoops for $30! He also bought me a set of two Gingers...8" shears and 4" snips.

The best part of Christmas was seeing him interact with his family. He was so happy!

My grandchildren out of foster care and living with me.

besides the quilting books, I got a mp3 player -- this is a learning experience with its touch pad and slidey controls -- I am downloading a free song a day and learning to get the thing to play -- I wonder what it would be like with one of the fancy sewing machines -- I'm not a etech or mechanical person

iPad!!!

I didn't get any "quilting/sewing" related things, but I did get a $100.00 gift card for Christopher Banks. I've lost 25 lbs since July, so I am need of some dress clothes for work when I find a job in the new area in which we live.

Then my husband bought us a big screen T.V. on Monday, so I guess that is the next thing I guess. Not my most favorite Chirstmas on my list. But moving didn't help either.

I helped pick out most of my gifts but my DDs bnought me a book without my knowledge. That is my favorite but right after that comes the Martelli cutter with the blades that they also bought for me.

That's wonderful....quite a Christmas !

My son and his wife are active in childrens little theater. He gave me a christmas cd that featured my DIL singing carols. I had never heard her sing. She has a beautiful voice. I was so moved when I heard it I cried.(glad I was alone)

WOW....what a wonderful gift.
