Notice they only come out of the woodwork after the names are released.
Just goes to show they're not as good at being naughty as they think.

Yikes... I am signed up for several holiday swaps, so how will I know which package I need to hold until the designated date...??? The Secret Pal, Ornament and New Years swaps require that we notify the senders and hosts upon receipt. Should we mark the packages Secret Santa?

Also, put secret santa instead of your name. Last year, I also wrapped the gifts.
Yay! Let the fun begin! I also checked my "box" for items that I thought my pal might like. She didn't provide much information other than one tip, so hopefully, I won't disappoint.

last night when got the name I clicked on their name and started reading responses they left to threads or subjects they started and got some great ideas of what the person likes.

No... I had you for a st. patties day swap, not a SP... Oh well!
I got my name, but no info. Which means she is at my mercy (evil grin, ha ha ha)... LOL no, probably going to do a theme of some sort.

I also would like to encourage swappers to update their profile, and tell us something about them, it sure makes putting a package together much easier and increases your chances of getting something you can use, :-D Just saying :P I didn't give any information, but I do have a good bit about me in my profile,and I think many of us will check there. :thumbup:

If you need more info about your person, PM Sharon b or myself (me before Monday) and we will get you the information.
As to what to put on the box for a date for opening...Put "DO NOT OPEN UNTIL REVEAL DAY".

Thanks KGoodhand, Candi, and Dreamer and tlrnhi! Sure would hate to be a spoiler, especially just before Christmas!!! Good thinking to put Secret Santa in place of our name on the package!
I am new to the quilting board this year so this is my first secret santa swap... I love these swaps so much! My 10 y/o grandson was visiting over the summer and was here when I received my July SP swap and he said "You get a package every month MoeMoe?" I said I sure do! "WOW that's cool!!!"...I got him started sewing last fall (actually I bought a sewing machine for my daughter, needless to say, she didn't express much interest in it, but my grandson was over the moon with it and he made all of his relatives and his teacher potholders, napkins and coasters for Christmas. I will cherish those handmade treasures forever!
Oh, do we give hints and clues along the way...?
