this needle case and lots of other goodies (see how beautifully it is stitched)
Thank you so much Maree.
Then I got TWO parcels from Jossie, first she sent me this panel early in December hoping that I could do something for Christmas but I never took the time but I will make something before next Christmas!
Then she sent me a Christmas gift, isn´t she a great friend!
These fabrics are traditional and are used for their costumes (in the Netherlands), I haven´t opened it yet, it is so beautifully packed :)

I took part in the Stitcher´s Angel swap last autumn and my partner was a lovely, lovely quilter/designer in Australia named Sandi. She sent me this, can you see what is peeking out between the trees?
It is a kookaburra and now it hangs on my Christmas tree :)
together with the kookaburra was this fabric...
How lucky am I, I am so rich having all those friends.
I made more of the oven mittens

Sounds like your holidays have been busy! I love getting everything "just right." I do enjoy seeing everyone's holiday celebrations and preparations. Thanks for sharing! I have a dear friend whose son was in your city for two years as a missionary for our church, I will ask her what years he was there. Happy New Year!
