Yikes.....my last post was in 2015......Now I am retired, I hope to do a much better job.  We will see.

2015 Santa Sack Swap

<

My Partner was Donna from Nashville, TN
She sent an email asking me not to open the
Box until the Official Opening day, as she
didn't realize each gift was to be wrapped.  Worked for me, less
clean up!

Here are the wonderful gifts Donna
sent me.  A embroidered pillow, a pretty
fan, matching pot holders and dish
towels, and a pin cushion with pockets for
my sewing chair.  She also made me
a blue and brown tote, which I have already
used to carry a crocheted baby afghan
I am working on

I love Hexies, and red is
my favorite color.  This is
staying out all year, on a green
recliner in our living room

My picture isn't perfect, but if it was, you
could see that this matches my chair perfectly!




Thanks Donna for the great Christmas Gifts, and
Thanks Cheryll for another great Swap Event!!

She loves to bake and has taken classes on decorating.  She also sells cake pops and cupcakes.
I am going to bring her this and CUPCAKES.

Santa Sack Swap 2015

I got my partner for this year.  It is Donna from Nashville, Tennessee.

This is my third year participating, Year 1 I swapped with Donna from Texas, last year it was Sue from Nebraska, now in  Canada.  I already have new gift ideas.  I checked out Donna's blog, and am quite impressed with the quantity and quality of her quilting.  Lucky lady is retired, so between her family (grandkids)  and quilting, it looks like she has a pretty terrific life.

Were those Santa's bells I just heard?
