2009 Christmas Scavenger Hunt!!!

[HeyJudee]

Cheryl...I think my parcel has arrived...I got a notice in the mail today that I can pick it up tomorrow night. But it may be Thursday before I will be able to go get it since our first storm of the year is forecast to hit overnight and all day tomorrow...20-30cm of snow is expected...that's 8-12 inches So I may be spending all evening tomorrow just digging out...LOL

Sheesh!! I sure hope it doesn't hit that bad.. But at least you will have something nice to look forward to!

Cheryl, haven't picked it up yet but probably tonight. We got approx. 8" of snow but the winds were a little nasty especially last night and still having small whiteouts this morning. My neighbour blew out my driveway behind my car to the street...but I had to shovel around the car and the walks, etc. Had some drifts in those areas...and kinda hurt my back so I'm off work today. If I'm feeling better tonight I'll drive to the post office and pick it up...it'll be just what the doctor orders...a surprise package...

Krystal....my pkg arrived!!! Thank you so much (and I got to open it without my dd since she's at work -LOL).

Beautiful Christmas pillow cases, a very nice handbag she also made. I love the "I" Inca gold thread!! Great imagination! Scented lotion and soap, malted milk balls (yum!!), ankle socks in red , tissues, and a silver star ornament. I didn't find the recipe but I'm sure it's in there (it's on the list) I'll look again later when I get a chance to take a break.

I love all of it!! Thanks so much!!

I'll post pics later when I get a chance to do that.

The seashell fabric is like some I got while on vacation to make a memory quilt. How funny is that?! You have great taste in fabric Lyn.

Pam glad your dd liked what you got too! Most of the "beach" type fabrics came from our FQ swaps here on the boards whether I sent it out or received it. I was glad to be able to use it for you. gotta tell you, I liked your lunch bag so much I used that fabric to make a pocket calendar holder for me. So nice when all the fabrics go together right! LOL

[HeyJudee]

Ohhhh Cheryl!!!! I loveeeeeeee my parcel! The casserole carrier is the best....perfect colour and now I don't need to make myself one. I almost missed the pocket for the spoon too. Really neat. Gosh the citrus hand lotion has already been used...smells great! And I can't wait to try Uncle Joe's sauce...especially with your recipes. RolyPoly is the cutest ornament. The Schmetz needle pocket guide will be so handy. Love the FQs, socks, thread, needles, quilting gloves, and that "I-shaped" point turner...LOL. Santa & I will be toasting you when I have my mug of hot chocolate Almost forgot...I'm already enjoying my Worther's...

[Upholsteress]

LOL!!! I am sooo glad you like it all! I wanted you to have something "unique" from Southern Illinois... and that BBQ sauce is made about 10 miles north of here in Ina, IL! ENJOY!!!
