A letter to Santa

I see that Santa is over at the Fat Quarter Shop - and he is giving out presents and granting wishes. What a delightful Santa he is - so I would like to write him a letter.

Dear Santa,

I see that you are busy over at the Fat Quarter Shop - getting ready for christmas deliveries. To make it easier for you - I'd like to send my list and you can shop right there and the nice people will send the gifts out - now what could be easier?


I love 30s fabrics and this little bundle of fat quarters would look so nice in my christmas stocking. I would sew up pretty quilts with it, or make some bags to give to my friends so they could carry their treasures around, or I could make some quilts for newborn babies or little children that don't have a quilt of their own - oh the things I could do with these pretties.

I have been a very good girl this year - I let other people help with my chores, I let others enjoy the fun of doing some of my shopping, I even let some of my best friends do some sewing for me - now what could be nicer than that? I try not to be naughty - although sometimes it slips out without much effort on my part - but I hope that you are looking the other way - or at someone else when my naughties get the best of me. You could watch Linda, or Pat - they gave me the idea to send this letter to you - and you know how they are - sometimes naughty, sometimes nice, so if the naughties come a creeping up on me - please look the other way - over there - look at Linda and Pat - see what they are doing (oops, now there are those naughties that I was talking about, sneaking up on me)

If it helps any - I will try even harder next year to be nice - I'll think of new and different ways to be nice - and if the naughties catch up with me - I'll tell them to go away - because Santa is watching.

Thank you very much Santa. Your good friend, and very nice helper, Jo
