For the tuck ins, she chose the word "CHILDREN" - since I have so many! No, she knew that our kids are the focus over the holidays. This is the "L" that she tacked to the pocket - a Little angel!
The "R" was also included on the apron. A Recycled vintage brooch. In the shape of a snowflake, no less.
She sent me a lot of scarves for the kids to play with. Aren't these pretty? I know she sent them for imaginative play for the children; but I will admit, I've been wearing a couple of them myself!
The "N" is for Neatness. She sent me a thread catcher that her mother made! I must admit, that I am a messy person and I throw my threads and scraps on my table as I'm sewing. I'm so excited about this thread catcher! It has a grippy bottom on the flower to stay put on my table and it's also a pin cushion. As I sew, I'll just be able to throw in my threads in the cute little bag. How cute! There was more things that were including that I didn't include pictures with - Candy canes for the kids (they're already gone), a Hand towel with snowflakes on it, Decorative snowflakes all throughout that I will use as ornaments, and snowflake Earrings! I think that the best surprise of all, though, was that my partner was sweet enough to include a donation to help bring Valeriy to our house!
Thank you so much, partner! This was most fun I've had opening a package in any swap I've ever been in. You truly made it special!
