I want to join it sounds like a lot of FUN :mrgreen: I sent a PM hope you got it I am new and not very good on this computer stuff!

trupeach 10-02-2009 11:49 AM

I haven't gotten an answer PPPPPLEASE tell me.....is this a store bought gift? or handmade? or could it be both? does it have to pertain to quilting or as long as it is handmade like an apron or something sewn. I see people have gone shopping I want to shop too but I can't until I know what I am shopping for.

Trupeach.. it can be either store bought or made . Last year was my first one and I was very nervous, so I understand. I don't know if you go to the search if last years secret santa is still available, that might help you figure out what kind of things to send :lol:

just pmd you shadow

pvquilter 10-02-2009 01:05 PM

Count me in. Sounds like lots of fun.

trupeach 10-02-2009 01:47 PM

Thanks for the info Sharon b. Now I can shop haray!!!

I can't believe there are 66 people and signs up just started I am so excited. I feel like a child the anticipation is killing me. I was the child that would search my house when I was young to find all my gifts. Then I would open all my gifts to see what I was getting and then re tape them. I CAN"T STAND HAVING TO WAIT.

Shadow Dancer 10-02-2009 01:54 PM

Uh oh, looks like Terri has some competition this year.... it will be exciting to watch trupeach and Terri when their parcel arrives and they have to wait!! LOL

S.D.

Wait a minute I have to wait after in arrives????? Is there a certain date that we all open them together?? Panic is setting in, do you mean to tell me there will be a package for me sitting in my living room that I can't open???? Did I make a mistake by signing up for this?? Will I have the will power to not open it. I feel my heart racing this can't be true I must be dreaming or is it a nightmare??? I CANT WAIT!!!!

Shadow Dancer 10-02-2009 02:44 PM

LOL!!! Yes you have to wait until December 13th to open it...we all meet in chat and open our Secret Santa parcels!!

It's okay...just take deep breaths!! LOL :)

S.D.

Once you are skilled at opening and reclosing they NEVER know :evil:

Iluv2quilt 10-02-2009 03:22 PM

Shadow Dancer, did you get my info? I pm'd you the other day.

sandpat 10-02-2009 03:22 PM

I did that one time...and one time only....I opened up what I thought was a beautiful doll for me and was so excited! Remember when people made those covers for the toasters that had a doll on the top??? It was that for my MOM!!! I've never peeked again....

but last year...my SS package spoke to me everyday and drove me crazy!

trupeach 10-02-2009 03:47 PM

NorBanaquilts....... you say that like you know..heheeh did you do the same thing????

MoodyKim 10-02-2009 03:56 PM

Shadow, now you've gone and done it - ya had to remind me. I couldn't stop myself from going back to that thread, and my sides are *hurting* right now! :lol: :lol:

trupeach 10-02-2009 06:52 PM

This isn't fair and I am protesting.......I searched last years Secret Santa to see how it worked (i couldn't fine it) but last year the gifts were opened Dec 7 why do we have to wait until Dec 13????? Shouldn't it be the same date every year like the real Christmas? They don't decide one year Christmas will be Dec 25 and the next Dec 28. This is making me insane. Can we make it Nov 3 that would work for me I REALLY wouldn't mind doing it just a wee bit early.

Shadow Dancer 10-02-2009 07:29 PM

LOL I picked the 13th for two reasons, the first that it is a Sunday, the second being that the mailing deadline is November 14th, and this gives the parcels a bit of extra time to get to their destinations. :)

You can do it trupeach, you and Terri will have to be support for each other for the extra few days! LOL :)

S.D.

trupeach 10-02-2009 07:32 PM

Terri..........where are you? who are you? PLEASE come hold my hand

tlrnhi 10-02-2009 08:48 PM

Trupeach....last year it was my birthday for the day that it was to be opened. It's not fair! I'm a day ahead of everyone, so I SHOULD have been able to open it on MY Dec 7 and not everyone else's. Just NOT fair!
<stomping feet>

sharon b 10-02-2009 08:55 PM

And Terris package kept calling her name and wiggling on the table if I remember correctly :wink:

Bettia, just because you cannot get into chat, doesn't mean you cannot join! We post pictures of our goodies, so everyone can see and you can thank your person.
Come join us! You know you want to...it'll be fun!
Come on..I dare you...I DOUBLE DOG DARE YOU!! :)

sharon b 10-02-2009 09:13 PM

But Terri I told you to send it to me and I would take good care of it for you :wink:

sharon b 10-02-2009 09:15 PM

It really is a BLAST ! I think the first time is the hardest because you don't know what to expect , but after that you relax and enjoy and actually look forward to it :lol:

tlrnhi 10-02-2009 09:26 PM

I know you did Sharon, but with all the goodies that was in there, I was afraid I'd NEVER see it again! lol

I agree if you are a day ahead you should open it that day and I wouldn't want you to open it all alone I will be WILLING to make a sacrafice and not wait for everyone else I'll open mine that day too and we can met in chat if I don't get booted from chat.

mcdaniel023 10-03-2009 03:10 AM

I sent you a PM, Shadow. I can't wait. This sounds like so much fun.
You are all soooo funny. No wonder I spend too much time here.
