140717Wow,Wow, No, No,
Secret Easter Bunny had not forgotten me!!!
I received his gift this morning! His has little legs, and the way to my home was long.
My SEB knew well how I love roses, and the colour blue! I received a beautiful rose FSL and a pocket for scissors. I will hang them next to my embroidery machine, and also bring them in my heart.
Thank you so much to my SEB
and thank you also to you Sue who organized all that so well.

5291I didn't think I had a SEB - but it seems that I was wrong! A parcel arrived today with a lovely towel, embroidered with roses, some nougat and some chocolate truffles. Unfortunately the (delicious) truffles were too tempting to wait until I fetched the camera!
Thanks to my Secret Easter Bunny!

140717Another late posting. I've enjoyed the Easter period so much that there were little time for the computer. I've never tried FSL before but like it and therefor appreciate my gifts even more. The bookmark is already in my bible and as previously told the keyring is attached to my work laptop. The hand towel I also took to work. As I work with money and papers I wash my hands quite regularly and the hand towel is very welcome. The sweeties was shared between the girls and I. Thank you again bunny you really contributed to a lovely Easter.

11528Sorry to be so late to post pics, considering I think I was the first to receive! I resisted temptation and opened my gift at Easter. What a great surprise to find one of my very favourite things (a greyhound) on a facewasher and my initial in a lovely alpha on a handtowel. You researched very well and I'm thrilled with my gifts. Thanks so much, Easter Bunny!

Its nice when our SEB knows enough about us to give us something with in our interests. Nice towels!
23163I'm late in posting my picture!!! I received my gift a few days ago but I've had a terrible migraine and I've been in bed!! I was able to sew my daughter an easter dress (which I'll post a picture of shortly) but I'm finally up and about again. Thank you so much to my wonderful Secret Easter Bunny. In case it is difficult to read - the Embroidered Cup reads: "Love is at the core of home schooling". The note pad reads "The Lord is my light and my salvation... Psalm 27:1" and the Mug reads "Live fully, Love deeply, Laugh loudly I have come that they may have live, and have it to the full. John 10:10"
I SOOO needed that mug too! All of my mugs that I have are tall and skinny - and none of them will fit in our microwave at work - this one if perfect. I love to have tea everday - so this was a much needed gift :)
Thank you so very much!!!
Does anyone else just want to say "Thanks Easter Bunny Bawk Bawk??"

33580140717a much nicer Easter surprise than the weather we just had. My SEB sent a small tote bag embroidered with butterflies on both sides, pockets inside and filled with pink easter grass. A box of tea,2 hot chocolates,2 hand lotions, a tea bag holder thing with the heart,a flower stamp, a beautiful bookmark with a cross. It is hanging off of the tote. And 4 plastic eggs filled with chocolate candy. Thank you Secret Easter Bunny you made my day and I'm loving all the gifts. You were far too generous . She also sent a lovely card with Easter wishes. this gift was worth waiting for. Thank you again!Bev

I got an applique scissors, a magazine from Urban threads Creative Machine Embroidery with a CD with 10 free design downloads, a gift card to DigiStictches for $10, and The Easter Bunny Embroidery she did for me. Made my day! I am sick with the flu and my hubby said if I didn't open it I would have to wait until next year. I am patient, but no that patient lol! Need to make me a warm cup of broth and get back to bed, I've got the chills again!! :(

67271Hi Cuties, I collected my SEB parcel from the post office today. Thought I would open tonight as we are leaving early tomorrow morning, going to our holiday home for the long Week-end.
Thank you so much for the lovely gifts that I received SEB it is really appreciated.
What a lovely design on the towel( I love lovely towels and linen),a pack of 2 Seaside Simplicity Soaps, a book One Minute Devotions FOR WOMEN by Carolyn Larsen,box of Sally Williams Finest Honey Naugat.
Also receive a card. Tried to take a picture but the wording did not show up.
Card read - Friends
The more you love, the more you'll find
that life is good and friends are kind,
for only what we give away enriches us from day to day.
Thank you so much for my lovely gifts.
Hugs and love Yvonne xx

15907My Easter Package arrived Monday but I was not able to post pictures until today. My Secret Easter Bunny was so clever and I hope my pictures will do the gifts justice. My SEB took my favorites and made my card and then sent a little gift for each one. My flowers are gorgeous and I must admit I studied very careful because I am not very good at FSL. Hers are lovely. Inspires me to try harder. I have already eaten much of the candy, and had a cup of peppermint tea. Thank you SEB. You are wonderful. Becky

5291Thanks to my secret bunny. I have received my gifts already. I will post pictures over the weekend as we close schools in RSA for the next week. Must admit all my gifts are in use already. The sweeties did not even make the pictures - remember I have 2 daughters and I just had to share. The gift I use daily is the FSL keyring with my initials - I just love it. For mobility purposes we use laptops at work. In school times I leave mine at work in the walk in safe. But so does all the other staff. So you have many laptops in similar bags in the safe. Mine I now identify with my FSL keyring which I have attached to the zip lock. No more searching which one belongs to me. Thank you Bunny.

11528I did receive my Secret Easter Bunny gift on Monday - however it was our 10th Wedding Anniversary and I didn't get pictures taken - until now. Thank you Secret Easter Bunny, you sure did a great job on the lovely teal and peach butterfly and red rose in this lovely 14" stained glass quilted wall hanging. I also loved the sweet way that you packaged the Marziapan Log, 4" Titanium embroidery scissors and the sweet non-chocalate bunny hanger in the patch of yellow easter grass.
You made my Easter special and will treasure these gifts.
I also like the way that you addressed the package - with the To and From with my address. Hehehe!
