I was SO close to not buying the box this year since I retired and the box has been a luxury to myself (3rd one). Yesterday I was telling my husband the same and told him of your videos, your evaluations of the prices and how good we were doing this year. He looked at me and said "Why would you not buy it?" Well, honey, couple hundred bucks is a couple hundred bucks. "But you enjoy it, right?" Well, yes, I do because I never had a stocking or advent calendar to do, so yeah, kinda LOTS of fun to get presents every day before Christmas. "Then you buy it. Who cares about the cost?" Well, then. 😌 So... I enjoy watching your openings with your wonderful enthusiasm and I also enjoy knowing our boxes are a dang good value. THANK you for doing these!! 🎅
Oh my goodness! That is so great! I love that you are enjoying this so much. 🥰 It really is my pleasure! I just love this series! I look forward to it each year.
Thank you! I always try to have fun with it! I loved teaching. Maybe I will go back to it someday. I really miss the kids. Society ruined teaching for me, unfortunately. Teachers lost the respect and expertise to know what is right for their students. I have so much to say about this, but, well, for now at least, I am stepping off my soapbox on this subject. 🤣
Kris, I’ve got the other card decks. They do have sewing instructions after a sort on the side with all the different cutting sizes. Take a look at the line drawing in the upper right. Sometimes it matters how you assemble a block, and sometimes there are multiple ways to sew it up. The line drawing gives you how they recommend to put the block together. What fun those block box sets are!❤
Kris I just love you and your facial expressions please do not change. This is part of your charm. I love the crunching of the parcels. Love all of your videos. xxx 🥰🥰🥰
Dear Kris, I just love all your Christmas head decorations. This Santa one is extremely cute. Those ornaments are very nice. They would look good on my tree too! Take care, Marion.
Hi Kris. Really enjoy all your videos Just wondering …. you do a great job working out all the costs of the items against the cost of the box. I imagine the good quality packaging and the time taken to beautifully do this would add to the cost too? Just a thought 🤷🏼♀️. Thank for sharing your great fun of opening. Happy Christmas! Jan
HI Jan! That's a great point. It years past, I discuss all of that at the end when I do the wrap up video, although I am careful because packaging isn't usually factored in at Target, say, when you are buying something. It is always tricky. Happy Christmas to you, too! So happy you are enjoying these videos! ❤️
I have all 5 boxes. Box 1 15.26, box 2 15.26, half square triangle 14.20, box 3 16.95, Christmas box 18.95 preorder date was August 14. I love all of them. I will have fun with new box. Enjoy them! And see the distance!!!
Thanks for yet another "full of joyful enthusiasm and giggle causing" unwrapping video. I am very tempted to start saving up for next years Jenny box. (I live in South Africa so our exchange rate causes the cost and the shipping to work out very expensive!) The value is amazing and I love the gifts which you have revealed. Can't wait for tomorrow's reveal!
My husband keep asking me what I want for Christmas. I told him Jenny’s next year box! I hope they do early buying again this year 🎅🏻 thank you again Kris. I look forward to your unboxing every morning. What are we going to do on December 26 😮 ?
Hi, mI opened my gift before leaving for church, but had to wait till after I got home to watch your opening. They are really nice ornaments, but I have a very small tree that fits on my piano, so these ornaments don’t work for me. But maybe I can find a place to hang them for Christmas.😄 Yes, maybe there is a pattern or some kind of project in tomorrow. Have a blessed day! Deborah Powell
I am going to address this in tomorrow's video. I am not an expert in pricing. HA! Far from it! And part of me is flattered, but overall, I don't know what I am talking about! I just Google and do research, just like everyone else can do. Also, although I am not 100% sure, in years past, most of this stuff will be available on the MSQC within the next upcoming months. Personally, I'd just wait to buy it if I wanted it. 🤷🏻♀️ I have more to say on this in tomorrow's video. Thank you so asking, but honestly, I wouldn't use me as an expert. I don't know anything.
Hi Kris, I noted a follower is posting on MSQ site for reselling images of you and your price on items. I realize you have done some research to come up with an estimate. I do not feel that Kathy Martin should be posting images of you and your estimate. I did report her to Facebook. I love following you. This is my second year following you and all your videos.
I think, at least for now, this particular deck of cards is exclusive to the box, but you can get other sets. Here's are links to some of the Block Builder Card Sets you can get: Set 1: amzn.to/4iyuDce Set 2: amzn.to/4iyuDce Set 3: amzn.to/4fmWU2K Holiday Edition: amzn.to/3BEfTId Here's a link to the book I showed: amzn.to/4iyuDce Hope this helps!
The ornaments are nice quality, just wish they didn't put their logo so prominently on the back. But oh well, I don't have a tree this year so kind of a moot point. At least they have a nice storage box.

I appreciate you letting me know, and thank you! Is she saying she is me? I mean, all of the information is out there for the public, so I don't think there is anything terrible happening. It is probably good advertisement for my channel, maybe? Hmmm. I will have think about this one. Also, I am not an expert at pricing at all. All I do is guesstimate by googling. It makes me want to stop giving estimates, to be perfectly honest.

I so agree with you. this year's box has been amazing.
Oh my goodness! That is so great! I love that you are enjoying this so much. 🥰
It really is my pleasure! I just love this series! I look forward to it each year.
He's a keeper! ❤
I agree with you. I will be retiring next year and wondered about whether to do next year. I really enjoy these videos.
So you got one?
I love the Jenny box
Kris I just love your facial expressions when you do these videos. I can only imagine how much your students adored you when you were teaching.
Thank you! I always try to have fun with it!

Not going to lie, I adore the box almost as much as the ornaments inside it. 😃
It really is lovely, isn't it?

Oh! Thanks for the heads up! I'm going to look for that line drawing now!
Kris I just love you and your facial expressions please do not change. This is part of your charm. I love the crunching of the parcels. Love all of your videos. xxx 🥰🥰🥰
Thank you! I have so much fun! I don't plan on changing. 😀😎😀

Thank you so much! I love having fun with this series!
Thanks to you telling us about the 12 Days of Quiltmas, I won a quilt! (And discovered some awesome creators)
Oh, how wonderful! I am so glad you discovered a new favorite creator, too!
I use them as coffee cup coasters too!❤❤❤❤
I was thinking they might be good for that too.
Oh, that's a cute idea! Thanks for sharing!
This is so much fun to watch!!
Thank you! So glad you are enjoying it!
I love watching how detailed you are with the descriptions. Thank you
You're welcome. I do discuss each item on my blog, too, at sewthedistance.com.
The ornaments are so cute and look great on your tree!
Thank you! They are so adorable!
I really enjoy watching you every day! I love your fancy headpieces! 🎄🎄 Thanks for keeping track of the cost.
My pleasure! So happy you are enjoying this series!
Another cute present. Love them on the tree. Tomorrow's present looks baffling, wonder what it is? See you tomorrow.
See you then, Sue! ❤️
SEW FUN! Thank you! Happy Funday Sunday🫶🎄🫶

Thanks so much for doing this each year! Have a fantastic day!
You are so welcome! It's my pleasure!
I hope you have a great day, too!
I love watching your reveals, and I'm so mad at myself for not ordering the box this year!
Thank you so much! Oh, you will have to get it next year! 😉

I love that you think so! It's my happy place!

Awww! I love that! That's the perfect gift! I will miss it, too! I have a lot of fun videos and happenings planned for 2025! Stay tuned!
Seems like there is less fabric in the box this year. At least so far.
@@MartyLawless-kh2jd your right, but they have some great ideas for using up some of my scraps! Which is taking up a life of its own
Another great video. Have a good Sunday. Till tomorrow.
Thank you! You too! See you tomorrow! ❤️
Very nice ornaments
SEW FUN! Thank you! Happy Funday Sunday🫶🎄🫶
I hope you got some fabric to make a block from the block builder set!
Oh! That would be amazing! I would love that!

They are a little heavy, aren't they? I know what you mean.
I hope you are right! That would be great! I hope you are having a blessed day, too!
Good morning from Ontario🇨🇦
Good morning! ❤️🇨🇦
So cheery
I think its a project of some sort too
Let's hope so!
Can we your pricing for countdowns pricing for MSQC items in our groups? Because there’s an lot of price gouging going on

Guess we'll find out tomorrow 🎉

Hi Wonderful presentation Chris. The link that is supposed to lead to the book only leads to the cards!!
Oh no! I will fix it now.
In the meantime, here's a link to it: amzn.to/4gEJnV9
❤❤❤❤
🥰
I say tomorrow's gift is a calendar
Oh, that's a great guess! I would love that!
Is it a dowel in there?
It doesn't feel like it, but maybe a small one? Hmmmm.
This should have been Day one or two so you could have them on the tree longer.
That's true! There's always next year!

How can we order the box of cards

Here's are links to some of the Block Builder Card Sets you can get:

I know what you mean. That's not my favorite part either, but they are nice overall!
Are you sure that they aren’t chocolate???
I am sure. ❤️ They are stoneware.
Planner and pencil😊
Ohhhh! I would love that!
