It is nearly time for Secret Santa to get moving ready for Actual Christmas! If anyone wants to join the scheme, please send an email to cutesecretsanta@yahoo.com so I can add you to the list. Existing members don't need to do anything yet. (I will only get confused!)

Can't wait. These exchanges are great. It's the best fun sending off to someone who doesn't know who or where they're receiving from :)

There isn't much to know! Everone on the list is given the details of another person to send a gift to. They will get a gift from someone else. Easy.
Send an email if you want to join in the fun.

Sue, I am so excited about this upcoming season - it will be so much fun - of coarse you will be the one working hard to organize it - so why wouldn't it be fun for all us? Hehehe!

looks a nice idea ! The gift; is it something you need to sew ? or can it be anything else...what are the guidelines ?..""secret santa" so it means you never know who has sent it to you ?? ...Maybe some extra for new cuties is usefull ?

There really isn't any more to tell! You send one hand made item anonymously and will get one from someone else.
Sign up to the list and await further instructions (a bit like Mission Impossible only you don't have to eat the email LOL)

..I'm already getting nervous ...:-) Thinking also what I -as a beginner- could fix for someone....

One handmade item. The person you are to send to will tell you what they like (or not!)

Please answer all the questions and with as much information as possible. It makes it easier for the sender to know what your interests are so they can give you something that fits who you are, and not something you really don't like.

okay thanks for this info. So I will wait for an email with instructions.
When do we have to send the item ? since some -international-countries takes longer to receive gifts.

I've replied to your email.

I have send an email too. But so far no reply ? :-(
by asterixsew 11 Oct 2011
Possibbly because it is late in the UK and Sue if she has any sense is asleep which is where I should be
by zoefzoef 12 Oct 2011
yes probably that was the reason. in the meanwhile I got an email. Still have to get used to the fact that we are an international family :-)

For those wanting ideas of what to make for their recipient, you may wish to take a look at some of the previous gifts. Bear in mind that some have gone a little 'over the top'. Just one gift and hand made is preferred, so others aren't feeling like they've not done enough. It's the very best fun seeing what you've made pictured and enjoyed by who gets it without knowing it's from you :)

Hi Sue,

Can you mention what info we send in the email. Is there
a questionnaire that comes later with personal info or do I send that now in my e-mail. Sorry, I am confused.
