I received my SS package yesterday but unable to get on the computer to report it.

It came from Marcia Bello.

She sent me a quilty coffee mug and a box of herb teas (my favorites)
a note pad
some homespun fabric in my favorite color (blues)
and a Quilting Block and Pattern a day Calendar

I was looking at mine from last year thinking oh that's almost over and I didn't get one for this year. Emily and I were talking about it because she changes the calendar everyday for me. Now Emily still has her job.

Thank you very much Marcia!

A big thanks to Sharon for a great box of goodies. Loved the thimbles from Puerto Rico and France. Did you visit those places? Lucky you! The snowmen fabric goes with some I had purchased on a shop hop last fall. The thread clippers and machine needles will come in handy.
Sorry it took me so long, but my father-in-law had a stroke last week and I have been very busy taking care of him and my 2 year old granddaughter. Hope you had a great Christmas!!!!!!!!!!!Jean


P.S. I have a babylock bmp6 embroidery machine.

Thank you to Donnacrazylady for the wonderful surprises! You're a terrific Secret Santa! I understand there was some mix-up that delayed things, but it was not a problem as far as I was concerned. I loved receiving a package on Christmas Eve, and I saved it until Christmas Day!!!

Donna sent me two patterns, a book of 24-hour sewing projects, 2 fabric pieces (both in pink - a favorite of mine), an adorable chicken pincushion (handmade), a gift card case (also made out of pink fabric), a luggage tag (also handmade), some note cards, a notepad, a pair of socks with butterflies on them, a candy cane ornament for my tree, a handmade Christmas stocking, a small clipboard with cherries on it, some seriously yummy dark chocolate Hershey kisses and Bliss squares, some packets of Spiced Cider mix, and a pedicure set with those toe separators you use for polishing your toenails - which Donna suggested using for bobbin holders! Great idea! Finally, she sent a nice letter in which she told me a little about herself and her quilting. I love feeling that I now know a little bit about Donna and she is more than just a name on the forum!

Thank you for your thoughtful gifts, Donna!

P.S.: I have not heard if my S.S. received and enjoyed the gift I sent. The Post Office tracking number indicates that it was delivered well before the deadline, but it went to a P.O. Box, so I'm just wondering...

Caroline, thank you so much for the Secret Santa package! I enjoyed opening my package on Christmas Eve and seeing all the different things that came out of it. I got a beautiful snowman family applique pattern, cute puppies and kitties calendar, 2 King-size packages of M&Ms, some thread, stickers, a holly stencil, a pretty Christmas card, two octagon shaped Santa coasters, and one of Caroline's famous octagons in the perfect colors for my living room (which went into use immediately).

I took a picture of my goodies and every time I tried to get into my Photobucket account so I could post it here, it wouldn't let me in, so I put off posting until I could add the picture. And then I kept forgetting I still needed to do it. So (feeling very naughty for being so late) now I am finally posting and then I'll try to post the picture.

Thanks you so much, Caroline, for all the goodies!!!
