I hope you do join and sew for your partner. Not many of sew "perfect" either. That's not what matters.

I'm also having a hard time waiting to find out preferences. For instance, don't want to buy a bunch of purple and then see my parter list purple as the one color she can't stand! So until we get our partners, have to wait!

dd me on again--cant wait as loveto play secret santa

I agree, if you'd only seen mine when I first started?? And I LOVE purple!!

I've seen some good ideas here. I need to start pulling things to put into a box. And as I make my extended family gifts, maybe I can make double and spoil my person.

Am I too late to join in on this, it there a post that gives all the details, I would really like to participate. Thank you

Count me in. This will be about the only I will get a gift! Will make me feel special and excited!

I read the rules and I still want to Join :)

Sounds like fun. I would love to join!

I haven't been on the board in several months due to life getting in the way. But things will be settling down by the end of the month, so I'm in again. Sign up will start next week, but I may not be able to be on the computer. How long are sign ups? I don't want to miss out, it's so much fun! I see lots of the the usual trouble makers hopping on & lots of the yummy food makers too! Hope I won't miss out!

Dreamer...she's only 30 min from me, so I can personally get to her if she misbehaves, but...then again, she has a key to my sewing room

I've been making a list of stash items to share. Fun. I love to share stash and it doesn't count toward the $20.00 limit. hehehehe

I have been waiting all year for this!! I'm in again too!

Uh Oh! I'm all out of jingle bells. Gotta go get some more to put inside my Secret Santa package! Weeeeeeee!

I am really looking forward to this!! I can hardly wait to make things and get things for my giftee but I want to see their likes/dislikes first!

Jingle bells crafty.

Jingle Bell Angels. Tutorial on youtube, link here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2nlzldCnpkw

How do I join and when? It will be my first time on this board but not my first time taking part in a secret santa. I've done this before in guilds, clubs, church, other groups etc. So I definitely want to join in.

Irish, thanks for the jingle bell angel tutorial. They are adorable!

She will let everyone know here when it comes up. Most likely the first of the month....? Just guessing there.

LOL or next week!

Had to go back and find it, thank you!!

I started filling my ss box today, it's going to be fun!!! :-) can't hardly wait!!! Curios...how many people normally participate?

Sorry but I have to bow out this year. I had lots of fun the past 2 yr. I will ck in and catch the chatter.

Looking forward to this for 2014! When do we start?????

I might be interested. Can you tell me a little more about it

Count me in again for this year. I do so enjoy secret santa swaps.

In a nutshell....you get a person, another person gets you. The swap is 4 fat quarters and a gift not to exceed $20. If you pull from your own stash, you don't have to count that as part of the $20. If you make something, you don't have to count that either. Some send more, some stick to the 4 fat quarters and a gift. It's up to you. This is a fun swap and meant to be fun.

I'm so ready to sign up for this one!! I had a great time last year with this.

tricia

Oh me me me (hands raised, waving) :)

waving back at ya !!

Just looking through these posts is getting me SOOOOOOO EXCITED for the fun of this swap again this year.
Posted this in Chit-Chat - but will remind you here also....
As of Today - 13 September - there are only 14 Saturdays til Christmas !!!
Now if that doesn't make you want to break out the wine and chocolates, nothing will !!

AH! yes the count down begins... its 7:30 here and a nice cool 60 deg. I had a small piece of my chocolate for desert and am sipping on a glass of Cab. for the evening. Does any one remember when the questions were going to be posted? When does next week get here??????

I would like to be added. Please let me know what I have to do to get on the list.
