I am sorry that I have trouble getting good photos with my Kindle, but my phone is a piece of junk and it is of no help at all. You did not see the Washi tape. Six rolls for Christmas, WOW.
This has been an awesome day. First at 10:00am we watched my husband's youngest niece get married. Mother of four, never been married. She went to school to become a nurse, met a nice young man and they tied the knot. The last two kids ages one and three are his. We were blessed to see her middle sister and family and the mother of the bride and her two sisters. The parents of the girls divorced years ago, but my husband's brother, who is in very poor health was there to be father of the bride. A young man that I spent many weeks,for three semesters, three different years, sitting in alternative school with, came up and hugged me. He is biracial, born to a fourteen year old druggie mom. Her mom and step father are raising him. They have tried so hard to keep him straight. Most of our time together was looking in God's word and me trying g to answer his questions about God. He is a good looking high school junior. Lunch with grandkids and their Mom. I got my car back from the dealership again. I went to get a few groceries. As I was closing car doors and turned to grab my cart, it was in the hands of a young man, a store employee. I said, "thank you." Then I blurted out the same thing again and added, "you just made my day."(I felt a bit foolish, but I was excited that I did not have to go put it up.) God has blessed me over and over today, including my box from Shannon. I hope you are enjoying your own blessings as much as I am. MERRY CHRISTMAS.

Shannon, did you make the red felt ornaments? They are so cute. I love them. I think you are amazing, raising a big loving family, nursing them and yourself back to health and doing all you do with us. I truly admire you.

I'm back from my week-long cruise and trying to make my way through the 1038 emails that awaited me, since I could not have my phone on without getting a looooooooooong bill.
I love seeing the pictures - and all the goodies and stockings. There are quite a few who have not uploaded their pictures. Please!!! Post pictures so we can all drool over everyone's goodies. So many talented ladies here - love seeing the hand made items in the stockings.

I got my box from Kerry (Pokeyfire) yesterday, but did not open it until today. Yesterday I spent all day in bed - don't know what bug I picked up somewhere, but had nausea, chills, and headache all day! I feel a little better today, but still shaky.
Opening the box really made my day. I love the stocking she decorated with a large "L" on it! And everything was wrapped in fat quarters of pretty green and white fabrics - a great idea! Inside was an antique nut grinder, two antique handkerchiefs, a sewing machine ornament, Mexican spiced coffee, a chocolate nut candy bar, and a bar of Christmas Memories soap. And also a cinnamon stick Santa ornament, a candy cane, loose candy, and a beautiful homemade card. Here is the filled stocking. Then the stocking and candy, card, and cinnamon santa ornament.
And all the rest of the goodies sitting on their FQ fabrics.
Thank you SO-O-O-O much, Kerry.

That was a great idea to wrap gifts for a seamstress in fat quarters Kerry!

Linda- I am so excited you knew what the nut grinder was!!! :0D I just liked the shape of it. And I didn't wash the hankies (okay that sounds gross when I type it) because I don't know the proper way and didn't want to ruin them. But, I hope you are able to use everything, for something. :0)

My stocking from Quiltee. Includes my new favorite apron, a bowl potholder (fun new tool), too cute note cards, Santa Christmas socks, trailer birdhouse (including resident flamingo), snowman ornament (look at that smile), kitty cat Christmas card, fun selection of teas, festive Christmas ribbon, yummy cherry cordials, and a beautiful handmade stocking. Thank you bunches. It truly made my day. :0)

Oh my crummy internet! I just typed everything that Karla put in my stocking and the internet went off and lost it.
I will retype it in a bit.
Sorry.

Ok my stocking from Karla is absolutely wonderful, There are so many things in it and I took a picture of it all with my camera but can't post it yet, I will try to take a picture of it with my tablet and see what happens. It is all so nice Karla and so much.
Hugs
