I got my stashmas - I'm sooooooooooooooooooo happy :D :D :D

Thank you mauveme :D :D :D

I got some Anchor threads (perfect), some aperture cards (perfect) and my Alluring Sorceress kit (sooooooooooooo perfect). Mauveme's little personal gift was an adorable metallics wall-hanging which is going to take pride of place on our fireplace. I am really, really happy. When I saw the Canada postmark I thought it was the bits and pieces of stash I'd bought from Mira.

I'm just uploading pictures so will post in a minute :D

:wub: :wub: :wub: :wub: :wub: mauveme

As promised here are the piccies. The first two show both sides of the wallhanging - which is absolutely gorgeous - much, much prettier than my rubbish photography shows :P

And to give you an idea, I've posted the Alluring Sorceress next to the Midnight Enchanter so you can see how perfectly they compliment each other. If you have a look in my gallery, there should be a picture of how far I've got with my Midnight Enchanter - it dates back about 5-6 years though :P :P

Thank you again mauveme xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

So glad it arrived. That is always a worry. I am thrilled I found the enchantress for you.. So much cheaper here. I couldn't beleive the price in the UK. I couldn't afford to stitch at those prices. My gosh--they are doubled :shock:

Well I've got loads of Christmas bits coming the next few days :D :D :D

My brother has ordered me some cotton/linen and the threads for my HAED and my other brother has just ordered the fabric and threads for my Alluring Sorceress :D :D :D

I must put them straight in my stash boxes though or I'll have another 2-3 WIP's on the go :P :P :P

Well done tatty ted it was from me. Sorry the present wasn;t too interesting but with my arm in plaster I had problems getting out to buy anything. I hope you liked it.

The snowman isn't one of my best pieces i've ever done but it was done with my left hand due to my cast.
