Santa Sack Swap - Part 2

MY TURN!  To be honest, I almost forgot all about gift opening today.  I am so wiped out from my traveling that I really want to be lazy today but I can't be lazy today so I won't be lazy today.  :)  My day started before 5 am yesterday because I just couldn't sleep anymore; my internal clock was still on east coast time and I was at the airport for 7:00 am.  I landed at 7:30 pm.  I stopped at Target on my way home to finish up some Christmas shopping last night.  Crazy, I know but I figured I was already out so why not?

Okay!  Present time!  Melissa made/gave me some wonderful gifts!

Here we go!  Just a little overview on my couch.  Not everything is in the picture.  I broke some things out.
3 wonderful wall hangings or table toppers.  Love that "Ho Ho Ho" one.  I think some short person in my house will claim it as her own once she sees it.  Fabric ornaments (that are already on my tree).  "Chocolate"mug with a sack of Dove dark on the inside.  MMMMMM.  All MINE!  And more and more!



"Citrus" charm pack.  Love the colors.  I think I'm going to use my Lil' Twister tool to make a table runner out of them.  A scissor keeper with a cute pair of scissors inside.  And a close up of the ornaments.


These trivets ROCK!  Melissa, please share what the pattern name is?  I would love to make these next year for Christmas gifts. And if I start in January; I should be done by Christmas 2012, right??  LOL!  They are SOOO COOL!


Hanging kitchen towels.  One is already on my oven door.

A pair of Christmas pillowcases.  Funny.  Pillowcases was on my potential gift list for Melissa but I never made them.  They are going on my bed today... before Amelia claims those too.  A zippered pouch that I can use for travel or in my person and the pattern to make more!


Melissa, THANK YOU!  I love everything.  And a thank you to Cheryll for hosting this wonderful swap.  It was a big commitment and I don't know if I could do it again.  Having the summer off this year REALLY helped but who knows?  If there is a 2012 version, I may change my mind.

Merry Christmas!!
Jen
