Christmas in July!

The wonderful Kaye is hosting Christmas in July and it was a lot of fun getting things together for the exchange. It was a "no extras" exchange which I think a lot of us find hard since as a whole we tend to be so generous with each other. I stayed within the rules though and I sent my package to Jocondine. I didn't get it off as early as I wanted though, so I'm not sure if it has arrived yet . 

 My exchange partner was Kay, who I don't think has a blog. She was on the ball and I received my package well ahead of time and then had to wait to open it!! 

 Then today arrived and here it is:
And inside:

 A beautifully stitched and finished ornament, a cool felt CHRISTMAS banner and some special chocolates! That's not to mention the special fabric they were all wrapped up in, thank you so much Kay! 

 I hope you're all having a great Christmas in July today. 

 Happy Stitching!

    Happy Christmas! What a lovely exchange, I think she bent the rules using beautiful fabric for the wrapping LOL

    So happy that you enjoyed the exchange, Tiffany. Kay sent you some gorgeus gifts - the ornament is beautifully stitched!

    Lovely gifts, I can feel my surprise will arrive today! Maybe I'll wait the postman stitching on a chair near the gateway. xxx

    Nice exchange goodies. I did this exchange too and I don't think my package to Noni in Australia made it in time. I did get my package from Nadine in France and had to wait almost a couple weeks to open it! The wait was worth it though. Merry Christmas in July!

      Thank you and I hope Noni has received your package now! I had sent to her for the Easter exchange and it took 2 more weeks to get to her after it had arrived in Australia, so bizarre.

    I am glad you liked your package. I must make the same santa ornament for myself one day. x

    You received a lovely package! I received mine from Noni and LOVE it! (Still need to post about it.)
    I sent mine late, but that was because I wanted to get something from where we were on vacation. Lyn knows and hopefully she'll be receiving it next week at the latest.
