SSCS 2014 - Thank you

Just a quick post 
to say thank you very much to my Secret Santa:
ak.a. Susan (from Australia) 

Susan sent me such beautiful gifts this year.
Although it has been a very sad year for both of us....
My Mother passed away suddenly on the 4th of December
and Susan's Father passed away a few days later 
so we were both feeling a bit blue this year...

Look what Susan sent:

 A beautiful zippered pouch, love the detail....
.
Look at the 'k' - love it!

 And a lovely zipper pull...


The magnet is wonderful...
and is already on the fridge.

Susan also included some notelets
and a beautiful hanky (love birds!)

Thanks Susan!

Thank you also to Chookyblue 
for organising this wonderful swap!

This is what I sent my partner Peaceful Threads
a.k.a Fiona (in Australia)

The Christmas decorations...

And the gifts...

Including an embroidered pincushion...

A needle-case...

And a reversible sunhat.....
as well as a cosmetic bag set.

Still on a Christmassy note...
Some stockings I was asked to make this year:
