My SS was Sharon. my gosh she actually found things I didn't have. Some great quilt patterns, a kit to make a sewing kit, a huge spool of thread, two jelly rolls and something I have never seen. little things of wax to keep your thread from curling. And, lucky me, a color book for grown ups. I've looked at them but never got one.

Thank you so much Sharon for you kindness, I love everything.

BUSY DAY! Sorry I didn't get back here sooner.

Tina, you have overwhelmed me with your lovely gifts!! Thank you so much!!

I received a table topper with Christmas trees. A tote bag that could be reversible, it's so pretty outside and inside, which is hot air balloon fabric. Both, so beautifully made. A book to make Christmas quilts (sorry can't tell you exact name as Minnie is sleeping on my leg, so can't move). There are note cards, a Hot Air Balloon ornament and an Angel one, too. Several fabrics that are gorgeous. Also some chocolates, beads, and sewing notions.

I'm a very blessed Elf!

I hope everyone has a Wonderful Christmas!

Good Happy Morning......

What a wonderful day!! I opened my box & let it all tumble all over my sewing table. Thank you Sue...Kenderosa!!!! I know where to start the wonderful pocketbook in my favorite color combo white/blue/yellow. I've already moved my knitting in it. I love it. There's a large purple tot bag that just perfect for quilt/fabric shopping. There's a QIAD pattern I don't have, Double four-patch & another pattern for felt mitten ornaments. Made up the would make a wonderful gift, saving a few for me.
I have a cube of Thread Haven I have one in my quilting basket I needed one for the sewing room. How did you know I could use the lg eye quilting needles. I haven't seen those & quilting thread in my most used color....white. I can't wait to try the new parking pencil.
The cup of tea socks are perfect for me, I'll wear them today!
I now have a small carry with me measuring tape. There is a small pin cushion set into a little pink glass cup. last but not least there's a thread catcher attached to a weighted pin cushion. I'll keep that next to my hand quilting chair.

Sue Thank You so much for all the work you did putting my gift together. I think I'll leave it out on my cutting table so I can look at it.

Thank you Thank you & Merry Christmas!!!! Kathy

My Secret Santa was Cindy! She fooled me for sure! I thought sure it was someone else and Cindy was just acting as Santa's helper to mail things. I am the most gullible person in the world! And she packed it full of things she KNEW I would love - pieces of fabric in just my taste, a thread catcher she made from all fairy frost fabric, (she and I both love fairy frost!), a pattern for a wine bottle carrier (insert *wink* here!), a pattern for a Christmas wall-hanging complete with rice lights to add to it, a book by Brenda Henning of Anchorage, one of my favorite designers, and the Farm Girl Vintage book - which I've been wanting for a long time. Not to mention two Snickers bars, 3 large spools of thread, and two mini-screwdrivers.

CINDY - you are a cagey angle for sure! I love it all! Thank you!

And a big thank-you to our MARY Q for doing this for all of us every year!! Hugs around!

I am just like a little kid, I was so excited to open today. What a delightful gift!!

My Santa is Beverly (Muse & Sew). I have been blessed with a Secret Santa who is so talented! She blessed me with a special “take along” sewing basket, a beautiful snowflake ornament, the cutest happy little coaster, a kitchen spatula (personalized with a snowman face) how cute!!! A magazine of miniature quilts for me to explore along with 4 fat-qtrs to get me started on a new project.
Merry Christmas, Beverly I love all my gifts. You made me feel very special.

Vel

PS: I want to add a special thank you to MaryQ. You are a Great Hostess!!!
