Secret Sister Stocking Swap!!

I love to participate in Secret Sister type things! The joy of putting together the other person's gift is always so exciting! My friend Nicki is hosting a Secret Sister Stocking Swap on the HGTV Quilting and Needlework Forum and we have to get our packages in the mail because we are due to open them on the 21st. We hope everyone mails on time so that every single secret sister gets to open their stocking with the others!

The person I send to does CQ work, as do many of the secret sisters involved with the swap. I have made her some blocks to embellish once she gets her package! I really hope she likes the ones I made for her. I really like the Flower Fairy one and have enough of those fabrics left to make myself one later on this winter.


All of my gifts would not fit in the stocking so instead of risking ruining some of the things I included with her gifts, I purchased 3 graduating Snowman boxes. They are as beautiful on the inside as they are on the outside. The recipient of my package will be able to use these year after year as a display during the holidays! I really hope she enjoys what I have put inside each one!

To top off the gift, her stocking is stuffed full of none other than...CHOCOLATES!!!! And my secret sister is gonna be so happy to find one of Nickilee's Needlebooks hanging off of her stocking!

  1. Darn it! For a minute I was hoping it was me who was getting such lovely things from you, but I'm not into CQ so that eliminated me entirely.
    Whoever gets your package will be thrilled.
    And the chocolates.......how can you go wrong!

  2. What a great idea - CQ blocks for the recipient to embellish. Those are beauties!!

    I also couldn't fit a few of my odd-shaped items into my stocking.
