Hoping this works, here is all the stuff Chriss was able to stuff into one of "those" boxes. Let me see if I can lust them all. A large and small hand made box, a thread catcher with detachable pin cushion, a little journal, a cutter with new blades, a seam ripper, some marking pens, a little jar pin cushion with pins and safety pins, a thimble, 2 charm packs, a fat quarter bundle, three different sizes of Dresden plate rulers. Oh my, have I been spoiled.

But most importantly is all the fun times we have together and even when we are apart. Thank you Chriss for your warm friendship!

Good Morning Girls

WOW …. I'm here to tell you that I am one happy little Elf! My Santa was Mary(Rosebud) and boy did she spoil me! The flat rate box was stuffed! SO many fun things!

An absolutely gorgeous tote bag ( that will likely become my new knitting bag) a little basket STUFFED with fabric pieces... all sorts of beautiful colors and great sizes for finding the perfect piece for applique work, mechanical pencils (which I use a lot of tracing) a new seam ripper, quilting pins, stick pins, and best of all... A little wall hanging, hand embroider with one of my favorite verses about " Where two or more are gathered, I am there" I got goosebumps and a little schmoopy… Zoom in on the photo and you will see how gorgeous it is.

You are very welcome Lois 🎄🎅

I hope it's ok for me to wait till Tuesday to open. The kids always help me and all 3 won't be there till Tuesday after school. It's been a tradition with us since I started with SS.

My SS was Teresa. In my box there were candies, books, ornaments, fabrics, spoon rest, table runner (the quilting on it is beautiful), some wonder clips, project bags, Kleenex, napkins, celebrate dessert plates, thread, note pad, a quilt project, a gift card at my LQS, and some cat candy for my fur babies. Goodness, I hope I didn't forget anything.

Thank you Teresa for all the wonderful gifts you sent me. They are all perfect. You have truly spoiled me with all the wonderful treasures. Once I finish here, I will work on figuring out how to post photos. Thank you again, not only for the wonderful gifts, but for your wonderful friendship.

Mary/Rosebud

Chriss:

I was your SS. So sorry that I didn't include a card. This is my first year doing SS and I wasn't sure about all of the details of this fun activity. I can't believe how fast you put the crumb quilt blocks together!! You might want to keep it for yourself and do something else for charity. Also, if you want a few more blocks to make it longer just let me know. I have a lot more completed blocks on hand.

I have company coming soon and I have to get ready. I'm going to have to wait to post about my box. DARN. This is torture. Apologies to my SS for the delay.

MaryGo

P.S. I was getting a kick out of you trying to figure out who your package was from. I could tell that it was driving you crazy! This Santa was flying under the radar this year. HO HO HO

Val. I’m so glad you liked your gift. You are a great friend

Marygo. You really fooled me. I have to admit that I usually am the one who forgets to include a card. Thank you for a wonderful gift. The crumb quilt is hanging on my design wall and keeps catching my eye. It’s really cool
