I did not add anything that I myself wouldn't like to receive, my sp and I have quite a bit in common and I added some of my favorite fabric(s) and items, plus a really neat V****** S***** item.

(no worries I did not breach my $10 limit, Joann's near us is closing in July and has been clearancing out lots)

no more hints from me though :)
You don't have to make anything.It's just a way to save some$ and give a personal touch. I have sent pakages with no homemade gifts. Just depends on what I have and what the person likes. I usually make items that don't take long such as pot holders,tissue covers manicure kits etc. I make these when I have just a little time to sew and don't want to work on quilting.Just gives me something to do and helps add to my goodie bag. These things don't really count in the $10 limit.just like your own stash does'nt.Hope this makes things clearer.I didn't mean you have to make anything.Just giving ideas to the new comers. Mary

It's shaped like a eyeglass case but opens up flat.It has little pockets to tuck nail file,orange stick,clippers etc. in. I'm sending my pal one this month. Maybe she can show pictures.It takes about 15 minutes to make one and I get the little 4-5 piece tools from the $1 store. Very handy.Mary uh oh You made me tell what one of my items is.lol your sooo sneaky! You remind me of my daughter at christmas.
