  1. It's really lovely when your bought gifts that mean a lot to you. I am going to ask Karen for the pattern for the wrist warmers.I call fingerless gloves the ones with finger separators but the fingers aren't complete. X

  2. Hi Angela happy new year to you and your family what lovely gifts you had it was so nice to see you today such a lovely lady I also watch Karen followed her all throw vlogmas another lovely lady hope you and your family are well see you on your next video Dawn 😀

  3. Love the mug. I got a machine needle threader and a set of hand sewing needles in a case. I love little useful gifts. x

  4. The crochet rainbow tablet case is a nice idea. Love the colors! The sewing sign is so cute! I loving sewing themed gifts! The mug is great too! 😊

  5. What lovely and thoughtful gifts you received. That book is amazing, what a thoughtful gift. I told my husband and daughter that I didn't want anything for Xmas or my Birthday (26th) I have too much fabric and all the tools I need ( when you've been quilting/ sewing for over 30yrs that's a lot of stash) so they both donated the money to a couple I watch here on Youtube @ TheFarm they had a Doggy daycare business but gave it up last year to take in dogs on death row and rehabilitate them for adoption. As you can imagine that reduced their income significantly! And they also have three young children. If you like dogs and heart warming stories go and have a look, it's really beautiful ( there are a few channels called the farm but his photo is a Rottweiler with a toy in his mouth) . My daughter did buy me one of their mugs while she was donating so I can have a morning cuppa with the pups ❤ look forward to seeing what you make in 2023 and I hope it's a good year for you and the family xx

  6. So happy you like your wrist warmers! I enjoy making those and they are so warm even when your fingers are out. Loved all the other gifts you got too, ways so nice to get sewing related gifts and I of course loved what you got for me in my advent calendar! Xxx

  7. Wow what gorgeous sewing gifts. Your crochet tablet case is beautiful your daughters knitting and crochet work is just amazing. I didn't get any sewing related gifts for Christmas but I did drop hints 🤣 I'll have to be more obvious this year. My son and daughter in law did get me a door sign last year for my sewing room it's says Nanny Debbie's Craft Room I just love it

  8. Such lovely gifts, the tablet holder your daughter made is fabulous 🌈😊 We are currently having our garden done too so I had a backdrop of noise from my end as I watched 😆

  13. Happy New Year. What wonderful gifts you had😍 I had a China knitting design mug this year, it’s so big it keeps me fuelled for ages!
