I will not be able to make chat either. Sorry, church program with the youth.

If my SQA is reading this, I am sorry I won't be here. You have been a wonderful Angel all year long, most generous, and alway's so sweet in your notes. Thank you from the bottom of my heart whoever you are.

I also have decided to not reveal myself to my Angelee.
I thought long and hard about it, and I think it best.

I hope you all have fun tomorrow evening and I can't wait to see who's SQA is who.

Merry Christmas everyone!

I receive my SA parcel and hopefully will be here on the 16,can hardly wait to see who my SA WAS!!!!!

Are we gonna do this again next year?? :D

wondering this myself! :)

Chrys it would not be the same without you.

I am watching the mail to see in a reveal parcel is coming!! If not that is ok! I have been spoiled all year! I know some were saying they weren't sure if they wanted to reveal themselves! Either way I will say a BIG heartfelt thank you to my SQA!!! This is been great all year!!!
Oh and thank you to you KWhite! What a great idea!!

Please count me in....if we do this again next year....


please tell "Miss Wings"...she be my Angel.....Could she care for me again????

Wvdek, I bet your anglee will be sad to not know you were the angel in question. I know I would be.

I JUST FOUND OUT, I CAN'T MAKE IT TO THE BIG PARTY!

So I am pressured to open my gift now....and seeing what I got...I am also VERY pressured to eat my gift now!

I feel so lucky! Look at all the wonderful things I got....

CHOCOLATE...AND MORE CHOCOLATES! YAHOOO!!!!
Pretty coasters, cute butterflies pins...and the coolest quilted theme mousepad....mini rotary board...and a glass teacup pin cushion!

Don't be jealous.....BUT I LOVE MISS WINGS...she be my ANGEL

Great gifts "Darlene"

I would be too!

"
Just curious - why would you think it best your Angelee not know who you are? Speaking for myself, I want to know so I can put a name to the wonderful year I've had because of her.

Darlene-what a haul!! What great angels we all have.

wvdek-it's too bad that you think it best to not reveal yourself on the 16th, I'm sure that your angelee would love to thank you for all her lovely gifts.

wvdek I was reading your profile and found that you and I have the same birthday I do not find many people with that date, my doctor has the same birthdate, but he is a lot younger then me, he is 40ish. I hope you have a very mery Christmas.

Darlene what a wonderful Christmas gift.

I hope we can do this again next year, this was fun.I just wonder wh will be willing to put it together, is must be an awsome task. God Bless kwhite for her hard work this year.

I "think" the monthly secret pal has/will replace the year long Secret Angel swap :lol:

Sewred,
Your angel says that since you cannot be on chat because it is your anniversary, you may open your gift when it arrives.
Happy anniversary!

Oh Are you sure! Ok it arrived today. I finally made it to the Post office to mail my SQA her gift!
There are no special instructions because I think it will barely get there and I won't be able to be on the chat with everyone.

OMG!!! I just opened my box from my SQA McDaniel023!

She put in pressies for my 2 girls which they jumped up and down and already ate some of the candy right away! hee hee

They say thank you so much!

Also I had a pretty card and candy and a pretty handkercheif angel! Last but definately not least I had some pretty fabric wrapped around something ... unwrapped it and it is the most Beautiful Red and white Sunbonnet Sue quilt made just for me ! I am in tears oh really thank you so very much!!! Where in Indiana are you from?

Your quilt is BEAUTIFUL!! Great job!

Hi Sewred, I am from Valparaiso. You will have to take a road trip with the girls and visit. Lake Michigan is only a few miles away.
I have so loved being your angel. I am glad you liked your quilt. Hug the girls for me.

I received my SQA gift in the mail today. Needless to say my kids told me NOT TO OPEN TILL THE 16TH!!! Grrr....so as a good person I WILL WAIT! :lol: Mind u they don't live with me, 22 and 21 yrs old and they're telling me to WAIT to open the gift! THANK YOU TO MY SQA FOR SENDING ME THE PACKAGE, now if I can only take a peek without them looking....

I will send my SQA gift out on Friday so I hope it gets there before Christmas. My apologies to my SQA but its been a roller coaster ride here! BUT YOU WILL RECEIVE IT!

I received a package in the mail today, with no instruction's on it, so I am thinking it is from my Secret Quilt Angel!! :D I will save it until the 16th to open. Thank you in advance to whomever it came from!! I can say it is from Illinois & that is where all of my other SQA packages have come from!! I am so excited, that I can hardly stand it!! Hee-Hee

:D :D :D

What great pressies. Sewred, I love your SB quilt!!

Hi Yall. The 16th is just around the corner. Are you ready?? By now all of the gifts should have been in the mail and most have been received I imagine. Lots are being opened. I did get my final gifts. Thank you so much Angel. I know who you are but will not tell now.

As for the question of next year SQA. I will not be doing it. If anyone else wants to do it feel free, but please please please PM me first. I have lots of tips for you.

kwhite-we're ready and waiting anxiously for the 16th. I do hope that my angel reveals herself, because I want to personally thank her for all her terrific gifts and I'd like to get to know her a little better.

Merry Christmas to everyone, may it be merry and bright, and a fantastic New Year!!!

The verdict is in...I won't be able to be on on the 16th...Christmas retail means lots of loooooonnnnnggggg hours. K White thank you very much for a year of fun giving and the chance to know someone a little better.

Well I finished up my 12 days of Christmas and THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU "SaraSewing". I have PM you a message. I'll try and post pictures in the next couple of days. My week if full of Christmas gatherings. I have been truely blessed with a new best friend!

Yesterday, I received a lovely Christmas tree and a beautiful star both made from fat quarters and a pair of Christmas socks with penguins on them. I didn't get a chance to take a picture, but will post one as soon as I can. The tree and star are so clever. I didn't see a note that said wait to open, and you have made me wait in the past, so I figured I may as well open it. Thank you my dear sweet Angel. I took note that you did not reveal yourself. I sure hope you are planning to as I wouldn't want to miss the opportunity to personally thank you for all that you have done for me throughout the year. I have been so blessed.

I mailed a package to my Angelee yesterday afternoon, they promised that it would arrive Thursday or maybe Friday. There is still hope. Neither my Angelee nor I are able to make it to the chat, but I hope everyone has fun. Thank you KWhite and your helpers for all your efforts, you have had your hands full all year long. Hope you are still smiling. It has been fun following this thread and watching so many people being blessed by complete strangers and I'm sure there have been many friendships started because of this thread. I'm sorry to those who have been disappointed, and hope you will be able to find forgiveness and move beyond it. I am encouraged that there are so many people who did follow through on their commitments and all in all it seemed to be a successful swap. There are many Angels among us. I had fun being one of them, and even more being blessed by one of you. I look forward to you revealing yourself.
Linda

yes i am spoiled i got so much 2 fat quarters a cute doll 2 angel ormaments needles a marker and so much more thank you my angel will not asy who dont want to reveal til after the 16

I have enjoyed the S.Q.A. project too! I loved sending little things to Barb M, my angel. But, I felt truly blessed when a couple of Angels took me under their wing and sent me cards and gifts. Thank you so much for adopting me.
Teddy Bear #3, Mary Jane, you always put a smile on my face, I really loved your surprise emails and cards. Thank you once again for the lovely package. The C.D.s are very special to me. My Quilt Guild Card will stay in my wallet forever! :thumbup:
Dawn, you have brought tears of joy to my eyes and a warm fuzzy feeling to my heart. Thank you for caring about me, I wished we lived closer, I know that we would be B.F.F.s The treasures that you made and sent me will be a constant reminder of you and your generosity! I am in complete awe of your craftsmanship. Thank you for the marvelous Santa wall hanging.
To my New Angel, whom I seriously hope will reveal herself, THANK YOU for pitching in and adopting me. The gift of the Panera Gift card, celebrating a very special day for me, was so kind and thoughtful. Being a Grama is so special!
MERRY CHRISTMAS TO EACH AND EVERYONE OF YOU!

Marie, is was my pleasure stepping in and adopting you :) Besides, I made a good friend!

I got a big heavy box today. It doesn't say SQA or wait...but it is from a name I don't recognize. I will open tomorrow, unless I am told not to. :D :D :D

Nothing for me yet :(

I finally got out to mail packages today. All were mailed via Priority Mail. All should be received by Saturday.

Only one more day :lol: :lol: :lol:

No package here either but the weather is so bad here! We were told it was so bad that the government declared a state of emergency for the area! We have unable to leave our little town since Monday!!! Nothing in and nothing out! I am lucky I mailed my angel her gift already and was told she received it!
