Linda, I always have the initial panic attack when the holidays are suddenly here. Then I realize I am only one person and I will do what I can and be happy with the results. After all, I want to enjoy the season too, not be a crazy person. I have two projects left to do and they will be. I started in july! LOL!
quilting cat, I hope you have a wonderful holiday and can join in next year. It is fun to send and receive an ornament from a Quilt Board member. Good memories and fun times, don't ya know.
sensewer, I have got to stay out of this candy! I dieted this year and lost the weight I wanted to. Now to stay on the right eating path to stay this way. Hard, but, I am determined. I will make cookies and gift them to friends and family. The toys and pencils will last until next year in a zip-lock.
I have had four more confirmations of mailings! Thank you for cooperating ladies. This makes my job so much easier and manageable to do.
This is what I had left over!

IT is not a requirement that you wait. But, if you do want to, the party date is December 6 at 1 pst, Sewnsewer.
Some of the gals enjoy the party and it makes it kind of a festive event to remember the swap by. I plan on waiting, to open with all the gals at the party. But, it is up to you. No one will have a fit if you open and share your ornament early. It is casual here. We are having fun!

When we open on the 6th at 1 do we then post on here with photos and thank you messages or do you do it 'live chat'? I've never done a reveal date before. I thought I was done.....I saw one ornament I loved at the store I want to duplicate....to add. I am sending an ornament I made that represents Texas. Should be ready in a few days, unless I fine more ideas to make.

HI Irene C.
The gals usually send a thank you note and then post a picture on the thread with a thank you. That way they are sure the sending party is sure to get a thank you. You see, sometimes people don't come back into the thread and won't see the thank you and post of the ornament. I know it is kind of double duty. But, that is usually the way it has been done in the past. This is the first year I am hosting, so that is all I have to go by, years past. LOL...

My neighborhood was so quiet last night I went around to a couple of my neighbor's homes to visit with them while hubby handed out the candy. That was so fun! I will have to try and do that again sometime. I had tons of bagged candy left over, so I guess I will have to make cookies with cut up candy in them.
