SIMS - Birthday & Christmas

Birthday

I collected more "loot" for my Birthday at the last SIMS (Susan, Inca, Maureen & Sue) meeting.

Normally I would have received these at our November meeting, but I couldn't attend that day.
This year for gifts we decided to give each other a kit - and the kit needs to be finished by our birthday month meeting in 2021.

My kits are - a Marg Low Christmas decoration (with a house)
A felt embroidered cat pincushion 
and a Thimbleblossom cross stitch pattern with the Aida (it has houses too....LOL)



So, plenty keep me busy
Thanks Maureen, Sue & Inca


Christmas

And of course, our December Meeting was also to celebrate Christmas.  We don't have any guidelines for presents so it's a surprise when we get something.

From Maureen - a pretty mug with reindeer (and some mini marshmallows) - wrapped in Christmas fabric.
From Inca - a potted succulent, some notebooks and a "treat".
From Sue - a decorated glass, some chocolates, candy cane and the cutest tiniest bear .

I made these hangers - to match the ones I made 2 years ago - here - which said "Yes, I do need all this Fabric"



and I added a container of Nutty Nibble Mix that I make every year.
They seemed to get a kick out of them.

    I do like the idea of giving a kit and having to make it by your next birthday. I might suggest this to my friend..
