Shannon -
I "subscribe" to all swaps I am in until they are completed. That way I don't miss or forget something about it. I can always click and delete the messages when they arrive in my email, but can also see the posted pics if I want. And yes, sometimes I am subscribed to a lot at one time. LOL!

Yes, she did let me know she had received mine, but was waiting on pkgs to come before mailing, but have not heard from her since. She could just be busy with Christmas as we all are.

Kris, I am so glad you liked everything. I had so much fun picking things out that I hoped you would like. My friend(who is also the one who started our "Hen" chapter)made the soap. The buttons on the star are vintage. I will let you know when mine arrives. Merry Christmas!
Hugs,

Kris, what a load I received today!!! Thank you so much. I love the snowman stocking, actually anything snowman!! My favorite stickers are from K & Co....how did you know? I love anything crocheted and the potholder is perfect. The beeswax candle smells great and the embroidery kit will come in handy this winter. One can never have too much candy (chocolate and PEZ). I wear those soft socks to bed every night here in upstate NY. Love the scarf,the homemade mint sugar scrub (smells heavenly), microfiber towels, and the yearly pocket calendar. Last, but not least, the bookmark.....I read all the time. Thanks again for a wonderful stocking full of goodies.
Hugs,
Portia

Received my Adorable Victorian Stuffed Stocking from Linda O. today.
She Created & handmade the Stocking! I Love It!!
Did I get spoiled or what??? Oh, my goodness Linda...I loved it ALL!!
I Love this Large Victorian Angel. She is Beautiful!!
Here is a Beautiful Cross Necklace that she made for me.
She bought the cross but knit or crocheted the ribbon band.
Well, I guess these are all the pictures that downloaded.
I will post more later once they come through Cyberspace. LOL
Thank you so much Linda...I couldn't be more thrilled with my
Big Over Stuffed Stocking.
Love and Hugs,
Peggy

I'm so so happy you love everything, Peggy Ann. I enjoyed finding and/or creating everything in the stocking. And the necklace "chain" is crocheted ladder yarn.

I can not thank you enough. What angel wings you have. My swap partner, I have never heard back from, and this is what Shannon sent to me as a gift instead.
I received the cutest stocking that is homemade and SO soft. Then the most beautiful handmade infinity scarf I am going to love wearing, it too is so very soft. Homemade candle in a cute snowman mug. The candle smells devine, just like honey. Ghirardelli dark chocolates with mint, how did you know that is my absolute favorite two flavors? Kids have claimed them, but that one we will have to share! Cute little face tissues, hot pad, note pad and nutcracker ornament. An oh so cute snowman decoration, he will be placed with my cute collection of snow people. Next I received a cute snow flake punch, card stock, and embellishing stickers. Along with all this I received a book "The Legend of the Poinsettia," cute cards, and bracelets for my two girls from Katie.
Thank you so much Shannon, you blessed me beyond measure with this wonderful stocking and gifts. Merry Christmas!

Don't worry, Portia, My camera is on the blink and I do not yet know how to work my phone camera to get it from my phone to the computer. I am not very tech savvy...I am hoping my kids will teach me this holiday! Have a wonderful week!!!! Smiles, Beth
You can never be too kind!

Kelly,
Oh shucks! Thank you! I think I am a little embarrassed now quite honestly! I'm truly glad I was able to do it for you - and really is just something small!!! The stocking is only sorta homemade - I certainly did not knit it!!! I used a sweater :) As for the chocolate - I knew you enjoyed dark chocolate and I happen to love mint and any type of chocolate together, so when I saw that, I just could not resist! Tell the girls maybe they can share one piece together, but the rest is yours ;) I'm not sure if I explained the book in my card or not, but we like to look at how different countries celebrate Christmas, so it is a great book on explaining both why poinsettias are popular around this time of the year, plus on the country :) Win win for us homeschoolers :D Merry Christmas :)

I can not tell you how very surprised I was to have received a box today. It is SO SUPER special, I absolutely love it all. I want to thank you first for the beautiful card and hand written letter. They mean quite a lot to me. Now on to my package. The stocking is BEAUTIFUL! I love the chocolate and wouldn't you know my kids quickly said that could be theirs. The candy cane is so huge and pretty. The stickers you picked are so my style and I will use them so proudly. The baking spatula will come in so handy. The card stock and adhesive tools are wonderful, I will get so much use out of them. The hand towel is just beautiful. My most precious pixie elves are my favorites. You really created a lovely gift for me, I thank you so very much.

Linda, I cannot tell you how delighted and excited I was today opening your stocking! Oh my, what a surprise! My original partner did not come through and several sweet and caring Farmgirls reached out to me. Since I had already received two fantastic other swaps, which also included adorable stockings, I declined their offers. But Linda, Quiltee, insisted and would not take no for an answer. VOILA! Check out this stocking Linda made for me and filled it with so many handcrafted goodies.
She made this cowgirl boot from jeans and trimmed it with International Harvester fabric(makers of RED TRACTORS). Inside the boot was a bowl cozy for the microwave from international fabric, an adorable kitty tea cozy, a crocheted dishcloth, soap, candle, and cute pair of chicken salt/pepper shakers. My daughter is home for Christmas and together we each opened one package at a time and enjoyed the special Farmgirl moment
Thank-you Linda for insisting on sending me a stocking! Farmgirls never cease to amaze me at their creativity! So, thank-you Linda and thanks to the other sweet and caring Farmgirls who reached out to me as well.
I hope all of you and your families have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy and Blessed New Year!

A VERY SPECIAL THANK YOU TO MY CHRISTMAS STOCKING ANGELS...who helped make this SWAP "JOYFUL' for
those who had ended up with less than committed partners. And you made my job as the Hostess so
much less frustrated by volunteering to Bless more than one person in this Swap. Thanks for your
MJF Angel Wings.
Love, Hugs and Appreciation to each of YOU,
Peggy
