I wonder if there will be an ornament swap this year.

today was house cleaning day for me. After that was done, I popped down "the HOLE' and tidied up a bit down there, left over party stuff etc from last year....its all ready now, table and chairs all out, clean cloths and flowers on the table. All ready for the "naughty" people to arrive with snacks, drinks, recipes etc. I'm climbing out now as what I've just done doesnt put me in the naughty category

I hope so djmat.

Just got to send mine-have been saving just for this swap the last 6 months. Thanks for doing this again this year!!! Crafty Grammie

I’ve been hitting up the sales and spending my pin money the way it was intended LOL!!! Can’t wait to see what my partner wants so I can have some more retain therapy

Secret Santa is so fun. I used to love it at the office. Look forward to this. Can’t wait to get started. I will send my PM soon.

Sorry I've been MIA. Had some family issues I had to resolve.
But I'm back!

Sent my info today.

Woohoo! Here we go again! Tuning up my Super Deluxe Broom, washing, waxing and fueling her up for super sleuthing out my Santee!

Sent my info

I'm sending out international names tonight.
Will be working on the rest of the names in a couple days.
I will be visiting a friend, but will have my laptop with me.

Thanks tlrnhi. One question - is this a direct swap (so the person you are sending to is who you are receiving from) or more like a traditional secret Santa ‘names out of a hat’. It doesn’t matter either way I just wondered and can’t remember from last year.

Ready, set, go! From what everyone has said this should be so much fun! Can’t wait!

Getting my big mailing bag ready, for the Christmas swap. Yep I already know how much space I have to pack, and know the cost of mailing. I am going to decorate this package a bit festive, so you do not open it until opening day. I am waiting to get your name and list.

No. You are not receiving from who you send to. But then again you never know. That’s why it’s secret

Trying to get names out but my friends internet is really slow. Names will be sent out in batches so please be patient with me

Got my name..... now to go hunting for some goodies to send somewhere far away!

Got my name. It is very easy for me to shop for this secret partner. It will be fun to put a package together for this quilter.

I got my secret santa... never swapped with her. looking forward. You got fur babies, and you live in a state with a sea shore. So many of my favorite things are from your state. I have traveled through your state in our RV , just a few months ago.

Wonderful Secret Santa name! Now need a ladder to climb out of the hole so I can do a shop hop for extra goodies to mail. My Santee lives very near my dear sister who lives much too far from me!

I have my Secret Santa name. In my Santee's state, bathing between October and March in prohibited. Additionally, it is illegal for any pedestrian crossing the highway to wear tail lights.

I have my name and am already planning my visit to a few quilt shops for some goodies! My Santee lives several states away but I was recently visiting family just 125 miles from her. In her state, it is illegal to fish for whales on Sunday and it’s also illegal to get a fish drunk. Lastly, we both like (maybe even love) chocolate but only one of us likes dark chocolate. This is going to be so much fun!

Got my name so now it begins ..... need to add to what I already have and make a few color adjustments 😀

Got my name too - so excited to get started on her surprise package! She has pets and i’m pretty sure she lives in the same time zone as i do!

So fun to look and see the hints. Some hints rule me out, for example, a silly law that doesn’t exist in my state. I can’t wait.

But in my pal's state it is against the law to shoot at any kind of game from a moving vehicle, unless the target is a whale.

Well my state has a sea shore and I have fur babies but then there are many quilters that live in my state. scratching my head.

All names are out!! WOOHOOO!!!!!
If you didn't get a name, please let me know asap

Got my name...I have someone I think I have swapped with before quite awhile ago and is in other swaps with me, who likes handmade things.

have my secret pal

Thanks tlrnh, I got my SS name. Now to begin the fun.

I got my name, I’m so excited. My local quilt shop moved to a new location, I’m so ready to visit them now. It is a way better location. The other location did not have any parking. Happy holidays to us all

please take a pic of pkg. someone sends me i cant send pic at this time thank you sewingsondra

I'm going to love making up a box for my Santee. She lives in a city I recently visited.

I have just ordered my Santee’s ‘most wanted’. Not easy to source in the UK but I have done it! Now to start thinking about other pretties to add...

I just placed an online order for my SS, certain items are a little hard to come by when you live in Podunk-ville!! But lucky for me, there's the internet! I love online shopping...!!!

My SS's 'really want' item arrived yesterday and I've added it to my collection of items to send... I am making something that should be complete in a few days but just came up with an idea of something else I'd like to make. I'll just say it involves something sparkly red, has a few letters & numbers and will require a bit of glue to finish! Hmmmm.... what might this homemade item be???

i got my nam she only lives about 2 1/2 hrs.from me,i have already collected some stuff

This is too fun!!! My Secret Santa person must have been a very good girl this year cuz it’s all coming together! Making one item (not on her list) and if time allows i will make another - both made with love 😊. Cant believe i was so apprehensive about signing up (had never done this before).

I got my name. Now to start stalking her... :D
