Cheers! It’s time again for Stitching Santa, the third year of this gift exchange, but just my second year to take part. I’ve received my swap partner’s info and started to “stalk” her blog. Ideas are spinning around in my head and I’m anxious to get started.
There is a limit on new purchases ($15 here in the US), but we have a free reign with our existing stash and any extras (freebies) we can come up with. This the process: After our partner assignment, we cruise through her blog to get to know her and gather ideas for our parcel. From time to time, we’ll post a little sneak peek at what we are creating, and then on Christmas Day, all the “reveals” begin posting, so follow along and we’ll see everyone’s handiwork together.
Just to give you an idea, here are my giving and receiving posts from last year’s partners, Abi of Freckled Fashionista and Michelle of Sewnhenge.
Many thanks to Sheila of Sewchet for organizing this activity, it’s a great little way to get to know other sewing/knitting bloggers, and spread a bit of holiday joy in the process!
Stitch on, lucky participants!
Exciting!!

Yay! Isn’t rather like being kids again? Getting it all together, then watching for the mail, then opening, and then seeing all the other packages!

I’m so glad you’re doing this again. I contemplated it, but I know how busy I get this time of year and I didn’t want to let anyone down. I’m excited to see what everyone comes up with this year. I loved your little “tomatoes” from last year.
