#952
I just got back in town last night, and had a WONDERFUL squishy from SuzanneTX. Cute little embroidery scissors, Kansas Troubles charm pack (my fav), Lifesaver Gummies (oh so yummy, also my fav), a beautiful handmade neeedlepoint card, white tea and pomegrante tea bags, notepad with a cute little pen, and an adorable handmade sewing angel. Suzanne, you are the best! You shouldn't have, but I'm so glad you did!

My package arrived from MsShawn yesterday afternoon. I opened it and was taking out the amazing things MsShawn sent when my daughter walked in the room and said "Mom what are you doing? I thought you weren't suppose to open your secret pal package till next month." I explained that is Secret santa package which is still put away. This was my Oct secret pal swap, it got sent a little late. It was so full it looked like a Christmas present!
THANK YOU Ms Shawn! it is amazing. I can't believe how much stuff you have in my package. So much fabric-I bet there is enough to make a quilt top. 2 angels, one is a home made standing angel with spools and buttons for arms and feet-(did you make this?) and a shiny angel ornament, a hand made star ornament wrapped in more fabric, a star pillow, hand made pincushion, packages of piping trim(2), bias tape(2), green ruffle more than 2 yds long, 3 plastic containers: 1-w/ q pins, 1 buttons, 1-w/ appliques, buttons and more q-pins; ribbon, earings, Christmas mug, Christmas towel, 3 long stem roses and 2 packages of Lindor truffles. I am truly overwhelmed.
Well you can see why my daughter thought I was breaking into my Christmas package! I am still amazed and speechless- luckily my fingers can type. ;) wow. Thank you, again Ms Shawn. I do hope all is well with you and your family.

Yesterday I received the most amazing package from my proxy secret pal, Cajunquilter2! The gold panda fabric, besides being beautiful, is a polished cotton. I love the oriental fabric, and I think I see a table runner waiting to be made. As you can see from the pic, she also included a set of templates, a pattern, pins, a little gripper, sandwich box, and a magnetic notepad that matches the card she sent. Oh, and lots of sweets!

I have to give a BIG and HEARTFELT Thank You to Suzanne for stepping in when my SP flaked on this swap. I responded to her PM asking if I had received my swap yet and I told her that I had not. I did not expect her to send anything to me. I just wanted to make sure the person who flaked didn't participate to do that to anyone else.
Well, when I got back from vacation, I had a package waiting for me from TX. Suzanne had looked at my form and sent me the sweetest present.
So thank you so much for your kindness!! I truly appreciate it and all that you do in organizing these swaps!!
Here is a picture of the great squishy she sent to me!
