Greetings friends! It will be a short post today - I just wanted to drop in and share the last five days from Jenny's Countdown to Christmas Box with you. It has been such a special treat to have a small present to open each day...it really has put me in more of the Christmas spirit this year. I must say, I have been really impressed with the items this year - so far, all things I will make and use. If you are not familiar with this box, it is a sewing advent calendar from the Missouri Star Quilt Company with 25 numbered and wrapped presents. I shared the first five days last week. Today's post includes days numbered six through 10. Before I go any further, this is not really a spoiler, as everyone who has this box should already have the gifts from the 6th - 10th opened - but if you do not want to know what was in each of these packages, stop reading/looking now... Click on images, if you want a larger view...
Day 6: A wooden clapper (pressing block) and/or ruler and template holder with spindles for spools/bobbins. |
Day 7: A Charm Pack of Strawberry Lemonade by Sheri & Chelsi for Moda. |
Day 8: Hexie Cellphone Clutch pattern, with hardware, templates and interfacing. Pattern uses fabric from day 7. |
Day 9: Two paper star lanterns with fairy light strings. One has snowflake cuts and the other has sewing item cuts. |
Day 10: A pair of "Chuck" embroidery scissors with a tassel and MSQC quilt block charm. Chuck the Duck is the MSQC mascot. You can see him on the red wrapping paper in my images. |
There you have it, the next five gifts unveiled - 15 more to go...Christmas is coming in quickly this year. I need to hurry up and finish my gifts and get them shipped!
What cool items for days 6 to 10! Love the paper star lanterns. xoxox
