My SS is Beth Street.

Beth you have blessed me tremendously and I am thankful. In my box there were pattern books, a Jim Shore figure, a handmade stocking with my favorite candies (3 Musketeers), notions and lots of over things. I will post pictures tomorrow.

Beth, Thank you so very much. You are a very good SS!

As I mentioned, quickly, on Saturday, Nur5e/ Marcia is my SS. Sorry I haven't gotten back here sooner to tell y'all what goodies she sent me.

A quilting journal (I didn't have one), small holiday picture frame (going to put a Minnie pic in it), shopping bag, a can with chocolate kisses in it (only see can in photo cause I don't want DH to know), a Christmas ornament, a quilted heart pillow kit, pretty potholders and a dish cloth (I love the knitted ones), lip balm that looks a spool of thread (where did she find that?), a book night light and 3 pretty fat quarters in browns and turquoise. When I was shopping Saturday I happened to find a batik of the same colors and bought half a yard to go with fats. Don't know what I will do with them yet, but oh soooo pretty!

Marcia, thank you so much!! I pray that you are feeling better.

Thank you Nay Kay! Joyce ,Thank you for a wonderful Package. I received a teapot pin cushion for my sewing studio! Several hand made ornaments,3 potholders, yardage in horse fabric, beach fabric, Christmas fabric, puppy fabric, a crocheted scarf I will wear tomorrow to work. A candle in sweet almond, which is going to burn in moments, A magnetic pin wand, I needed that. I love the puppy card. My DH is from Louisville and he was thrilled for me to receive a package from a Kentucky secret Santa. The horse fabric is going to be used in a quilt for him , been collecting for a while. Thank you so much.

I just walked through my door after 8 hours on the road from Tucson, Arizona. It was a very memorable visit with my dad, my brother and sister. Dad has dementia... his eyesight and hearing are failing. Made lots of memories...took lots of photos and videos. I'm so glad I went.

I wasn't able to open my package until just now. Drum roll please...my secret santa was our very own hostess, Maryq!!!! Mary, your generosity and talent is overwhelming!

Don't know where to start...the box was heavy.Red and white potholders with zig zags and polka dots, baking utensils in one of the pockets. A mulled cider candle, I love candles. A white dishtowel with white polka dots on red background fabric and a red one with poinsetta fabric with prarie points. A 2015 QUILTING Block and Pattern-A-Day Calendar,a Round Stoneware Mini baker in red (my signature color).Mary, I love the zippered pouch, do you have the pattern I can borrow? Your handmade folded fabric ornament is darling.
The cranberry spice moisturizing soap will look great on my soapdish.
The handmade knitted dish or hand towels will come in handy. Are those glass jars with the cut outs filled with scented gel? Lip balm, key ring,portable sewing kit and so much more are all greatly appreciated.

Mary, thank you for your Christmas spirit and for organizing this wonderful swap. I look forward to it every year.

With much love and appreciation,

Lucie
