    Here is mine I got from OK' Sew N Sew. She made the bird with sparkly fabric and it has a little star dangling from it's mouth. How cute! She also made another little angel with a wooden head ornament. I love her. Well, I love them both really. The little goodies she included are a seam guide and a needle pack. How I needed those, you will never know.
    A Big hug and Thanks so much Jean!

    Hello everyone, I am doing the happy dance. First I got a wonderful wall hanging, From RoseIrish.
    [ATTACH=CONFIG]501410[/ATTACH] and it's already has a place on the wall. I can’t wait to see what I get tomorrow!!! Unless someone else used her return address she is my SS also!

    And then I open something that is from Wisconsin, I could not see the postmark so I thought it was from the next state over, but wait it’s not from Wisconsin!!

    A wonderful person just a few miles north of me sent me this cute Christmas tree!! And Chocolate and a FQ.

    [ATTACH=CONFIG]501415[/ATTACH]
    I hope she will be nice and show me how she did it. This year we are a tight little circle here in MN.

    Here's the pics of mine, the first one is from PenniF, she sent the cutest little wood bird house, a tissue holder for my purse and a sewing kit/with bag that she made. It is perfect to pack and take on our cruise next month. You just never know when you need thread and a needle. Thank you very much, I love it all.[ATTACH=CONFIG]501409[/ATTACH]
    This next one is from omacookie, she made 2 fabric christmas trees with little buttons to decorate, extra fabric and this kitchen towel that has a very special meaning in her family and a pic of her and her husband. Thanks so much for sharing your "story" with me omacookie, it makes it very special.[ATTACH=CONFIG]501414[/ATTACH]
    and here they are hanging on my little carousel in the sewing room.[ATTACH=CONFIG]501416[/ATTACH]

    Linda aka Learner747 made me this gorgeous sequined and beaded ornament! The photo doesn't do it justice; the blue sequins and beads sparkle with iridescence.

    [ATTACH=CONFIG]501417[/ATTACH]

    I'm almost positive that I received her package before we had the discussion about our mothers making these -- so she couldn't have been more in tune with me! I have approximately 50 of these type ornaments on my tree, and this one will now join them every year.

    Linda, I know from watching mom make these just how much work you put into this. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

    Here are my two beautiful beaded ornament covers by Mrs Shak. Her clear bulb broke en route and so I substituted one of my own. They have frosted swirls so it maybe a bit harder to see the beads clearly. The tops were smaller so I couldn't put the sweet little snowman back inside the middle of the bulb either. I'll try and find bulbs that replicate the ones that got broken. Kari also sent a bottle of lotion that was made in her town. Thanks Kari! I love the delicate bead work and they do look elegant hanging over my sideboard! They are reflected in the mirror.

    jaba made me, as she puts it, this little "watchdog" to await Santa's arrival. Doesn't he look cute standing beneath the tree?

    [ATTACH=CONFIG]501421[/ATTACH]

    She numbered the parts (how did you know I'd need help ), so he went together in a snap. So much personality; love him! Best of all, she wrapped him in batting!! How clever is that?

    She also gifted me with this --

    [ATTACH=CONFIG]501422[/ATTACH]

    A beautifully made tissue holder, trash bag for my car (really needed that today), and Andes mint wafers. Now just how did you know they're favorites of mine?

    Thank you so much; love it all!
