I was totally spoiled by Karen this year, and this last package was no exception!! In addition to the wonderful package she also included a lovely 123 Stitch Gift card!!! Here's a snap of everything that tumbled out of the stuffed mailer......

.... included with the lovely stitched ornament were some great finishing fabrics, two needle minders, a cute holiday pad of paper, some gorgeous scissors and a hot pad baking set!! I immediately got the ornament on the tree......

Karen didn't know, but, this is one of my top 10 favorite Christmas Carols, so it makes it that much more special - Thank you so much Karen for a lovely year of super exchanging fun!!!!! Have a Merry Christmas and Wonderful New Year!!!!!!

He stitched Bent Creek's Autumn Row and Faye,

the carolina stitcher finished it beautifully.

He included lots of Fall goodies in the package.

Not surprisingly, the Ghirardelli chocolate is half gone. :-)

Thank you so much Edgar!
