Here's the handmade gift I'm sending to my 'pal'... it holds crochet hooks!

My prayers go out to all who are suffering with health and personal trials. It is so hard when there is nothing we can do to help even tho we would do anything to releave their suffering. Please know this group of quilters is always here to lean on and pray for you.

It's beautiful!!! I crochet and my hook case is wearing very thin. Is it me? Is it ME???

Oooh, potholders, pin cushions, and crochet hook rolls. I love them all. What great homemade gifts for your partners.

My shopping is all done. I just have to get all my items ready for wrapping (removing price tags and ironing gifted stash fabrics). Once it's all wrapped, it will be boxed and shipped.

these are the pesky ladybugs--just one of the homemade items that went into the box. i spent the morning doing my wrapping..it all fit before i wrapped and i was able to really squeeze it all back in. Now to get the energy to get it to the postoffice.

I missed a lot, over 20 pages worth to catch up on b/c; I got busy with work and life and in between I went on a 4 state, 10 store, quilting shop hop bus trip. I picked up several items for my Santee. Now to go through my stash to see what else I can pack in her box. Unsure if I will have time to make a personal item. I'm debating between a 12 inch wall hanging or pin coushion.

My monthly hint, just joking. My Santee post on this thread and quilts. LOL. Sorry couldn't resist. Back to work for 3 days. Will give another hint then.

My SS finally posted !! I can not take photos and then post for all to see.
My DH fell Aug 5th and has been In 3 hospitals since then.
Today had to read 40 pages. Still stuffing THE BOX!!!

Cute apron! I have a kitchen, therefore it COULD be for ME!

I hope your DH is much better, by now. :::::::: sending prayers ::::::::

My Secret Santee box is almost finished but because I spent most of the $$ limit on the main gift, it doesn't look like much. I guess that can be a hint. Will try to find a few other little things, to make the unwrapping more fun.
