Vintagesaver --- Have you received my gift (handmade & vintage of something that you collect) I know you said you would not accept anything from me as you were angry with me for being disappointed. I do hope you've reconsidered. Happy Holidays!

Yes Anna, it came 2 days ago and itis really nice. You know I love the crocheted potholders! and the pine scent of the Meyers hand soap and lotion is so Christmasy. I'm sending you a few other things, bought yesterday, but can't mail until Mon. I don't want you to be disappointed, especially at Christmas. Happy holidays!

Beverly, I already posted under the cookie swap real quick but I wanted to post here too....thank you so much for my lovely package!! I love everything you sent. How did you know I needed a new recipe box? Well, not a new so much as another.....I have too many recipes lol. This one's perfect and even comes with a few recipes! I will have to try those cheesecake bars soon, they sound yummy. I have already had a cup of yummy tea (to try the cookies with, of course!), and the festive tissues and cute button wreath ornament are all greatly appreciated. But the jar with the embroidered cardinal is my favorite, I just love cardinals and this one is real special and every time I see it I will think of you and the wonderful virtual farm we have here :)
Thank you again for spoiling me so! Even the outer packaging looked so festive, I did not want to unwrap it (almost!). The red gingham kraft paper looked great, even my ups guy commented on how nice it looked!
I am sad to say, your package did not go out until today. I was finally able to do the baking part today. In fact, your package came while I was baking and I didn't even open it until I got home from the post office, I was on a tight time schedule to get a ride there and I had some other stuff to mail too so the ride was greatly needed lol. But it finally did go out and you should have it soon!
Oh, and I almost forgot to say that the timing of it coming today was nothing short of magical....I am battling the tail end of a cold and trying to baby myself while I catch up with life stuff, feeling calm now but awoke sort of harried so it was a bright light AND today is my birthday and it was neato to get a big ol' box on my birthday!! Thanks again for being my partner on these two swaps!!

Catherine, I spoiled YOU?!? More like you spoiled ME! My package arrived today! LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the box of ornaments! The box is beautiful! But when I opened it!....OMG!!! I could not believe how many ornaments you packed in it! I LOVE them ALL and will cherish them for years to come! We are a little slim on ornaments....we lost our home in a fire in March 09. Last year's tree was pretty bare :) I guess it took me years to collect the ones I had, so it will take years to collect again. Your ornaments will be a special part of the new collection! The snowflakes are too AWESOME! I can't believe they are paper! My son says the oven mit & hot pad are his....since they have the Toy Soldiers on them :) He loves to help out in the kitchen. The Gum Drop recipe sounds yummy & fun to make! Time is quickly running out but I'm thinking that I'll have to give them a try after the holidays!

Thank you for all that you sent! Happy belated birthday & I hope your cold is long gone! I'm also sending you an email!

{{{hugs}}}

LOL - I'd say a very successful swap is one where both sides think THEY were the spoiled ones! Glad you liked everything and thanks for being my swap partner!!

Your son is too funny....tell him he can have the oven mitt and potholder only if he bakes cookies for you through the winter :)

Kangarookate -- I received your 3 item Christmas swap. I love the little cross stitched stocking. Since one item was to be handmade, I was marveling over your handiwork when I saw a tag "made in the Philippines" Now I'm confused - did you make it?

Sue - I just realized in the busyness of the holidays, I failed to post a thank you to you. Your package was wonderful! The wreath you made is so beautiful that it is going to hang all year in my sewing room. The chocolates - oh my the chocolates are out of this world! I'm writing at work and not remembering everything that was packed in my special package, but please know that I love and appreciate it all!

Hi Anna, (ayates)
did we have the same package?
I sent the 3 crochet dolies that were handmade by a
friend of mine. one was pink and two were white.
didnt think I put in a cross stitched stocking?
trying to remember what all I did put in extra besides
crochet things and the recipe? was a hectic week getting
christmas stuff finished up I was running behind schedule.
