Thanks for the positive comments, ladies! Now, if my Santee isn't one of you, I can be fairly certain she'll like it... and if she is one of you, I know she will!

VickiM, that is not quirky. I got hooked on true crime when there was a large family murder in Winston-Salem near where I lived at the time. It went national and ended up with books and movies. However, I have noticed that as I get older I like calmer reads (grin) - like quilting magazines and chat boards like this one on the "net".

As a somewhat newbie, let me say that I would love orphan blocks - a great way to motivate!

I am going to have to think on this. lol These are all brand new from a block swap I participated in but never got around to using in a project. I'd love to see someone "cut their quilting teeth" on them.

YES I can 100% trust this person to forward the box on to you.

My Secret Santa recipient lives close to Mickey and Minnie. I am enjoying gathering items to send to her.

I guess I need to be in the hole, when filling out my wish list I said I didn't need any rulers,

I was wrong I after reading about Bonnie Hunters new mystery quilt I would like to try doing it and I don't have one of the easy angles. I have lots of square rulers but no strange angle ones.

I could probably make HST the old way. Just a thought!

I included hand made ornaments in my package last year and will do so again. I would love to receive some thing special for my tree.

I have found out some really good stuff about my SS and will start getting the stuff together. Hint, I have lived in your state.

I would love the pin/ornament it is very nice. My Santa giftee also lives in a state where I have relatives living. I've started on the pkg. I will get the FQs next week so I don't forget about them.
