I have been ruminating over this thread off and on lately and I need to get it done. Problem is I am fully stocked with fabric, threads and a pile of charts/kits to keep me going for the next 20 years.
Having said that I know I will love and enjoy whatever is sent to me.

A Laying Tool - for when stitching with blended threads.
Simple small designs for cards
Small designs of Owls
non stitchy thing - small stickers to put on the envelopes of my letters

Dislike:

Not much really. larger than 16 ct fabric

However whatever is sent will be most welcome.

I'd be excited to get anything! My first stashmas :dance:

Not preferred :neutral:
I'm a newer stitcher so complicated or big patterns would probably be too much for me right now, but I can always stash for later.

Would love :wub:
I'd love anything that you wish you'd had when you started stitching. Or something you wish you'd tried sooner.
I've been interested in blackwork lately
Colorful patterns, fabrics, or threads

Do I need stash. Well, no, I don't really. But then "need" is such an elastic concept...

Likes
snowflakes or patterns that look like them
#12 pearl cottons
hardanger patterns or ideas
subtly variegated threads


Don't need
anything twee
Disney (sorry!)
fabric (I have an entire drawer full of fabric...)
DMC or Anchor stranded cottons (you don't want to see my collection... unless you take some away, of course)

Actually, I'm always amazed and delighted with my Stashmas person's choices, so don't worry overly much!

I haven't a clue what to put here.

Likes
Pretty much anything interesting

Dislikes
I just can't stand printed canvas (where the pattern is on the canvas) It makes me angry, mainly because I find it distracting
