Wow! Everyone has their gifts?? Is this a first?? lol! I will wait for this weekend but not knowing what this weekend holds for us, I'm not sure what day it will be. But happy birthday on Sunday to Tina! I'd wait until then, too, if it were MY birthday!

My Secret Santa was Teresa! I don't know how she did all this what with a major move across the country, trying to settle into a new home, medical problems, surgery, and just a general upheaval of her life. But she did and in a very grand way! She went way overboard. She sent me a pattern book of projects made with paper pieced angels (I love PP'ing!), a book of appliqued quilt patterns using strips and included a package of 2-1/2" batik strips! Also 2 charm packs, 5 fall FQ's, 5 winter FQ's, 2 very fine stitch pickers, an embroidery scissors, QIAD's scallop template, a Christmas dishtowel, 2 knitted dishcloths, 2 Christmas oven mitts, a set of 4 Christmas placemats with coordinating napkins. Also, 2 5" ceramic Christmas pie plates, 4 bowl cozies, an ornament, 2 pr fuzzy Christmas sox, LED lighted outdoor gloves, 2 candy bars, a pack of 10 paint with water Christmas cards, a stack of old quilting magazines, a card, and a short letter explaining that she had all her SS stuff set aside but her movers packed it all! When she got to FL she couldn't find it and had to start all over!

Teresa, you were over the top generous! Thank you for everything! I love it all!

Merry Christmas!

P.S. And Foxy says thank you for the box! If it fits, he sits!

My Secret Santa was Kathy. I really want to say Thank you for the great gifts. She sent me a beautiful Christmas card with a barn on it. I received a nail kit along with a box of Santa soap and hand cream. In the sewing department I got a journal ,thread covers ,a box of directional pins , charm squares ,A sewline fabric pencil [Which i can really use} ,a pair of snips and a tiny ruler. I also received a beautiful table topper, and four round crocheted coasters. Kathy if there used for something else let me know. Of course the thing I really like is the Pecan Brittle. This is one of my favorites. If you have the recipe please send it to me.
Kathy you did a great job as my Secret Santa.
Merry Christmas
Katy
