And Merry Christmas! here it is the OFFICIAL Secret Santa Topic for 2021
Do you believe this is the 15th year we have shared the joy and fun of exchanging gifts. It is has been so fun for me to host this exchange.
I thought long and hard about a theme for this year... came up with a few, couldn't decide, even had a sleepless night or two. But while sitting quietly last night, it came to me. So here we go!
This Year's Theme is " P I M " Project in Mind! I'm sure many of you have a list a mile long of Projects you are Going to do SOMEDAY! I know I have Several. Whether it's a Queen size quilt for a special relative, a set of placemats for your own kitchen table, (with a matching apron), Christmas ornaments for your tree. Let this be the year Santa helps those projects come to fruition.
NOW.... here's the fine details.
I will be making a post for all new HINTS for 2021. It will be super important that you answer the questions in a timely manner and be a specific as you can. For Example... I would like to make a quilt with Hawaiian fabric... I have pattern, but not the fabric. OR you could really need a new table topper for a non-christmas season. Do you get the idea? check out the HINTS post for more details. You can either a) make the desired item (such as an apron or placemats). Provide that pattern--or A pattern and the materials needed (some or all depending on the P I M). And In the spirit of "Use, Reuse, Recycle" I'm all for sharing from our stashes. I'll explain more on that in the hints topic.

I would SO love to see some of you that haven't joined in before.. come and have fun with us this year.
Some of you have my phone number and are free to text me with questions. If you would like my cell number, send me a PM and I'll get back to you. Once you see the HINTS topic I think things might be come a little clearer for you.
Also, It is with some sadness that I will tell you that I am retiring as Head Santa! Doing this every year for fifteen years has a been a wonderful experience, but I think it's time I hand the baton to some one else. If someone else wants the job next year, I'll help in anyway I can. I have files in my computer from at least back to 2009!
A New Head Santa has come forward! Thank you so much Tina!!!! And thanks to Katy for your offer as well!
And a huge THANK YOU to all who have participated over years.... I love you all!
