When I first Fiona Marie " Great Global Christmas Swap " filed, I knew not how long will it take to mail a package from Germany to the United States. When I got my Joan gave gifts for mid-November to the post office, I felt on the safe side, to make it short, Joan reached the end of January! Your package was long before Christmas with me, but I had an appointment with Joan, open it only when my presents had arrived with her. Here you can see, which surprised Joan me: A gorgeous bag that shows on the one hand, the court stepped block, symbolizing my job ;-)

Sending my Chrismas presents in the middle of november to Joan, I thought beeing right in time, but in fact, my package arrived Phoenix at the end of January! Joan's package came long time before Christmas, but I told Joan that I would wait with opening her package until mine arrived at her home. Here you see Joan's Christmas presents, a wonderful hand-made bag, that shows on one side, the courthouse steps-block, symbolizing my profession ;-)
the other side ziehrt a Baltimore Album block, which represents my Hobby patchwork. Actually Joan, the case for my PW-sewn things, but I take them everywhere with me and I had already been raised on the street because of this great part.
and on the other side a Baltimore Album - block, who stands for my hobby: patchwork. Joan thought, that I could use the bag carrying all my tools for my patchwork quilting-group, but in fact, I'm falling so much in love with this beautiful present, that I take her with me everywhere! Some people even asked me on the street about this extraordinary bag!
But that's not all: Joan has filled the bag with 2 great PW-books and magazines, a cute little pin cushions, stationery, fine cloth and Christmas tree supporters, you can imagine how I felt when unpacking , as if, like Christmas and my birthday together. I thank my heart with you, dear Joan, and I hope that you've got my presents.
