Wowwie - wow! Thank you so much Purple Passion for a great Secret Santa swap! I just love the PURPLE & blue table topper. The combination of batiks & snowmen are perfect & I will keep this baby out throughout winter. The fabrics are wonderful - the bundle & individual FQs. I am thrilled to have some new hexie templates. I re-use them til there is nothing left & I have quite a few ready for the trash can. Some other goodies to spoil me - a few Minnesota mementos (I collect post cards!), chap stick (you must realize that I'm outside a lot!), and hand lotion, plus a beaded key chain & snowflake decoration. She included some of my favorite chocolates, too. I think I can be good & not eat them all tonight. My computer does not seem to want to download the pic I took, so I'll keep trying & post a pic later. Wanted to say a big THANK YOU for your efforts right away, though! Merry Christmas!!!

Thank you SS from Shorewood ,IL. I don't know your name, but I love everything. I've never seen a lighted, magnified seam ripper, but I'm sure I'll put it to good use. Also 1 yd of purple fabric and 10 fat quarters, a journal, 3 spools of thread and some lavendar sachets. I'll post pictures from my computer tomorrow. I still haven't been able to post from my iPad. Please tell me who you are.

Cindy 60545...you are so welcome! Glad you liked it all. I was so nervous about it all since this was my first swap.
So glad you like the boot panel...it made me think of Texas! Didn't know if you had ever been to Ohio so added the buckeye on ribbon as a souvenir.
Merry Christmas to you an wishes for a wonderful 2013!

Thanks to Terri, my secret santa has an identity. Thank you so much, Chuckbere, for the lovely package. The casserole carrier is just stunning....in both workmanship and fabric choice. And what a treat to have the big package of wonder clips...I've been making do with a small pack and have wished for more. Thank you so much for such thoughtful choices. The fat quarters you chose are ones I will certainly use and the fabric "wrapping paper" is cool as well. It's not easy to choose gifts for a stranger, but you did a great job. Thank you. Thank you.

What an awesome box of goodies - I don't know where to start! I got some beautiful Christmas fat quarters that I am itching to start sewing, some lovely chocolate I am drooling over, decorations for the tree, sweet little reindeer socks, several notepads for quilty ideas (one for each place I sit - I won't have to hunt for paper for a good long while!), thread in just the right color and little boxes to keep little things in.

Best of all, a beautiful handmade change purse in luscious colors! I love it!

Thanks so much! (I think I am going to wear out the ! key here...)
