I haven't seen my Santaee post since she signed up. I know she got her package, but I doubt I'll ever hear anything from her. Oh well, I had fun putting it together.

My receivee hadn't posted that she got my package, nor has she posted anything here. I hope she is just busy. I know she's ok, cuz she does post on other threads. I wish she would post here. I will probably pm her in a couple days to make sure all is ok. What lovely boxes everyone has gotten...such alot of fun, getting 2 Xmas's. Teri, you need to come up with a beautiful blue quilt for us to see......:)

Okay. I did not hear anything from the person I sent to either. I heard from Terri that she had gotten her package, and knew about the opening date and was hoping to see her post something/anything since I continued to sleuth and had seen that she was continuing to post on the QB. (Cricket. Cricket. As my teenagers would say.) Nothing.

So, I went ahead and sent her a PM this morning reminding her that yesterday was opening day (in case she forgot!) and that I would love to know if she liked any of the things I picked out for her. Not because I wanted a pat on the back or recognition even, I just wanted to know if I had "done good" or not. lol

This was my first SS swap and I really had to do some investigative research as my partner was incredibly new, both to the board and to quilting and gave me very little to go on. I tried, just like everyone else, to tailor my gifts to her specifically and just wanted to know that she was happy.

I was so thrilled with my OWN Secret Santa that I wanted to run down the street and tell perfect strangers about how wonderful she was and how she nailed ALL of my likes and personality exactly! LOL

After I PM'd my giftee, she wrote back and explained that she did not have internet at her house and could not post until today. She gave me all of the feedback I had wanted and posted to the thread, too. It may be that your giftee's have extenuating circumstances, too, or just don't know what they should do in a swap. So, if you feel led to do so send them a note.

It can't hurt!

I am so glad you liked the things. I sent you a PM explaining why I was so nervous. I also got me a pair of the same kind of socks and I really like them. The scarf looks pretty on you. Thanks again for your wonderful comments. BrendaK
