12 Days of Christmas Exchanges

I hadn't participated in a 12 Days of Christmas Exchange for a couple years, so this year I joined two!

EXCHANGE #1
From Berly at the I-Love-Cross-Stitching group, I received two skeins of Carries Creations floss and a box of Peppermint tea for Days 1-3.  I love that tea, and who couldn't use more floss?!

 
Day 4 - 28ct Evenweave
 
 
Days 5, 6, and 7 - Carries Floss and 32ct Linen
 
 
Day 8 - Skittles and Tea

 
 
Days 9, 10, and 11
 
 
Day 12 - 28ct Linen "Babbling Brook"
 
 
On Christmas Eve, I also received a gift certificate from 123stitch.  Thank you very much, Berly.  I enjoyed all the gifts.
 

EXCHANGE #2
From Greta at the Stitchers Circle group, I received:

Day 1 - Flowers Limited Edition Kit by Lizzie Kate

 
Day 2 - Cardinal Tweet Chart Pack by Just Nan

 
Hmmm... Both make me want to start a new project!! Must.... hold... out!

Day 3 - Crayola Erasable Twistable Colored Pencils


Day 4 - Cute "Peppermint" Soap
 

Day 5 - Main Street Station by LHN and Linen

 
Day 6 - Cardinal Ornament. So Cute!
 
 
Day 7 - Lemon Citrus Hand Soap


Day 8 - Notepads

 
Day 9 - Beads From My Wishlist

 
Day 10 - Snail Tape Measure!

So cute... inches on one side and cm on the other.

Day 11 - A Billion Dollars!

 
Day 12 - Matching Table Runner and Placemats


Thank you for the beautiful gifts, Greta.  I really enjoyed the exchange.
