Well it seems that while it "tis the season to be JOLLY!" I fell off the Advent Blog~a~long Bandwagon, but I am back and will work extra hard these last few days to blog~a~long with you all!
Advent Blog~A~Long Day #21 ..
Today marked the
OPENING DAY for the EB Sewing Secret Santa!
Who doesn't enjoy getting a little something arriving via Express Post from their local Post Office in this Festive Season! Yes, I was overwhelmed with this parcel and it has sat adoringly, awaiting Opening Day!
Many MANY thanks to the wonderful person that has sewn for me, a very special talent lies within this mysterious giver!
I received a beautifully hand-made quilted table runner, it fits in beautifully with our 1930's Tasmanian Oak Table, but as soon as I saw it, I started yearning for a nice side-board or antique side table which would also suit the classic "warm" colours. Thank you Secret Santa, its' just gorgeous!
That wasn't all,
JOY came forth in the form of a appliqued and embroidered tea towel, what a thoughtful design for this time of year! You know I would have never have thought to take such a lovely tea towel and add JOY to it as a beautiful gift (mental note to self for future giving) ... But how did you know I spend so much time in my Kitchen?? ... lol .. Its' just gorgeous!
I can't believe you didn't stop there, you have really spoilt me with a gorgeous little stocking full of lots of sewing goodies! .. I honestly was speechless by your thoughtfulness and generosity and I wish you the very best of
TIDINGS and
GOODWILL for this Christmas!
So thank you (whoever you were), trust that your special gifts have found a special home!

You lucky thing, what a great haul! The table runner is lovely, is the stocking in the shape of a Christmas sock? The ribbon would be lovely on a Lazy Days skirt. What a lovely generous SS you had :)
Its' like a cone Vik, Would be great to make and fill up with wrapped chocolates and lollies too! :) Anything really! I'm still smiling :)
What wonderful SS gifts! What a talented bunch of generous ladies in our group. Susan :)
Lovely gifts. The little stocking is a cute idea I haven't seen before.
