SSCS Opened-Thank You Laila

SSCS Opened-Thank You Laila

My SSCS gift could finally get opened and I let the grand babies open it on Christmas eve when we exchange our gifts. They were so excited and I tried to explain it was all the way from Norway, but I don't think they understood.

This is the first picture, little sister is saying, this one is empty, big sister has already taken the package out.

Uh oh, might be a little bit of trouble.

Little sis took off and big sis finishes it up. Look at those eyes she just got through telling little sis to come on we can both open it.

Thank you again Laila (http://jacobs-quilt.blogspot.com/). She made the bag that May Britt designed and it is so cute. This is so special knowing that Laila made this and I already know the project that it will hold. Fabric, thimble and a charm were also included. The thimble will have a special place on a shelf. Mom collected thimbles and I have it on my wall.

I loved doing this swap and I want to thank Donna again for hosting it. I know Maree (http://www.mareew.blogspot.com/) received hers and this is what I sent across the big ocean. It really gives us an opportunity to meet people from all Countries.

Don't forget to sign up for the magazines giveaway below. I'll be drawing soon...

BOY, I just made it with my SSCS on it's way!!!

Has everyone waited till the last day like me. I work so much better under stress!!! I had things finished, just not in the mail. Why do I put things off. Just a little reminder if anyone has finished and mailed the SSCS gifts, just pop over to http://www.chookyblue.blogspot.com/ and let Miss Donna Elf know. Click on the picture above and it will bring you to her blog. I can't imagine having this to mark off and keep up with at this time of year. Thank you Donna again for having this swap. I hope my SSCS swapper (is that a word) likes what I'm sending. This is the first time I've entered. I'll post pictures after she opens it on Christmas.

I wanted to post another little giftie idea. I love travel pillows and I do these for the shop. Makes great gifts for little one's and adults to travel with. You can put all kind of sayings on them or names but I just wanted to show this one I've done for my show and I'll show some other ideas soon! Let me know if you all might like a tutorial on this.

I have some that say "Over the river and through the wood, to Grandfather's house we go" for traveling at the Holidays.

I only have 5 kits left that I showed in the last post. Thank you all that ordered them. They are on there way.
