absolutely love gift cards to Joanne's. we recently got a Hobby lobby but havent been out to visit it yet. dont need subscriptions as l ready get like 8 different ones. got so i dont know if i owe them or if they are just trying to get me to renew my subscriptions. i look at connecting threads or keepsake quilting catalogs and wish i could afford to buy some of their patterns or materials. someday i would love to be able to one of the many bargello quilts they showcase.
i stopped into the thrift store yesterday on my way home from bingo at the VFW (lost again as usual) and found 2 lovely green fingertip towels to cross stitch. brand new with tags still attached for less than the price of one at Joanne's. found a design that will stitch up fast so i can include them in the box for my secret santee. Now if i could just find a box big enough.....

OK, hope I am not too late with this information for my SS. As previously mentioned I forgot to add this to my threads so have missed out on all the conversation.
OK gang, now that the party has started, it's time for some digging into likes to help our gifters. We all filled out Terri's entry form, but some of our minds took a hike while answering it! Let's help our Santa's to fulfill our likes!

3. Quilting style - traditional, modern, scrappy? Traditional
4. Pets? what kind & how many? Yes, 3 dogs and 1 cat

Great questions Quilty Louise. I even have more ideas for my SS's package.
Just thought of more questions.
Do you applique? Yes
Do you use turn edge, or fusible applique? Fusible
If fusible what kind do you like/use? Heat and Bond
What kind of scissors to you use for cutting out the shapes? I am not sure of the brand name. They are really sharp and I used then when I was doing Hardanger.
Have you ever used (or own) a pair of the Fiskar micro tip spring action scissors? No
Mosre questions to come later (when I think of them).

Is any one in the Hole? I cant hear any noises etc Maybe theres a garden party happening somewhere for all the good girls and I havent heard about it. I'm being good, posted off my box, crept to the edge of the hole & peered in but...NOTHING! My SS may think I'm bad though as I forget to say what I like (I dont dislike anything except quarantine and postage rates) Love fabric though and in my town,good fabric is hard to find.
