Well, I did get my secret pal's package in the mail today....which means it was postmarked before the 15th!!!! (Dawne- I read the secret pal post the same way you did: in the mail by Jan. 15th!)

It is headed to the east coast and I am sure it will bring a smile to one particular quilter !

mine finally was mailed today. I kept hoping I would get some clues of what to send...but I didn't so hope she likes what I sent...It was a challenge keeping the cost around $5.00. Next month I will have a better idea of what to send now that I see what people have been receiving.
and...whoever Jan gets next month is lucky her gift to me was fantastic!

Maryq!
Thank you so much for the lovely note and wonderful gifts! You are correct, I LOVE RED! The fabric is beautiful. Thanks for the handy needle set and case, my current one is missing most of the needles. The note paper is adorable will come in very handy. As soon as I saw the red wallet I thought , "This would be great for carrying fabric swatches", then that is what you wrote in your note! Since you mentioned that you like batik fabric I am attaching a photograph of a batik quilt I finished this year. Thanks again my new friend from Minnesota for everything!
