I made a terrible mistake today... A package came in the mail for me and I thought it was probably some fabric I'd ordered from the destash groups on Facebook. It wasn't... A bunch of Christmassy looking pretties spilled out before I realized I had opened my Christmas Ornament package! Horrors! I quickly put it all back in the bag and stuck it away for opening day. I didn't recognize the name on the package. I'll try to forget what little I saw until opening day.
Maybe we should be writing "Ornament Swap, DO NOT OPEN" on the packages? Anyway, whoever sent to me... it's arrived!
