I am enjoying it right now...i absolutely love the dragon needle minder and fobs and the flosses. The card and ornament were cute and so were the snowman coasters.

I feel asleep was early last night cause I was emotionally strung out..but this was a wonderful surprise to wake up too thank you!!![/url]
Glad you like everything -- and now you can see why the package had to be kept away from a radiator! :lol: Fizzbw (Niki) is responsible for the needleminder and scissors keep. Yes, we conspired... :idea: And the card and coasters all support good UK causes.

Well I love them ..I love dragons

Love my Stashmas gifts! Thank you rebeccashelly!! Another Halloween fairy, this one is Raven, in my favourite shade of blue and 2 awesome Coloris threads plus some Halloween charms. Perfect for the Halloween smalls I hope to stitch next year.

Happy Stashmas to me.

Here you see my treasures - LHN and L*K charts (LOVE all of them, and a couple I've been eyeing for awhile), a beautiful piece of Lugana (can't wait to decide what to use it for - it's gorgeous), and a wonderful Mabel-designed/stitched hardanger card. I think I'm going to frame it or use it in a wooden box top.

Thank you for everything - I love every single piece of it!!! :wub: :wub: :wub:

Glad you like it! I had great fun with one of those charts myself, it's lovely to think it won't just sit in a drawer but be enjoyed by someone else too!

Ooh, what lovely gifts everyone has been given.
Thanks Tiff for my parcel of gorgeousness. I'll post a pic when I get home from Scotland (can't do it on the iPad) of my needles, threads, fabric, choccies and beautiful card. I'm feeling very spoilt.
Mabel, I didn't know it was your favourite colour thread I used it because it is my fave.
It seems stashmas has been a success again so thanks to everyone for organising it and playing nicely.

Yes thank you all so much for making the Stashmas go so smoothly!! Loving the range of gifts!!

Carole, I've used gold needles for ages, they are much smoother but my fingers must be a bit acidic so the coating of gold wears off quite quickly, so while I was desperate, I still have a tin with lots of what were once gold needles in it.....bonkers....

:dance: thank you so much Squirrel for my stashmas gifts! I was so surprised at how much you fit into the package! I got a gorgeous thread, lots of small charts to get my teeth into, fabric, washable fabric marker (I've lost mine so was very happy to receive another!) and a thread organiser/ cutter tool! I have been thoroughly spoilt! Oh and a gorgeous stitched card :wub:

I will post a picture soon, once I can get on the laptop (might be Saturday).

Thank you thank you thank you!

I'm so glad you like the chart! I had lots of fun picking the chart, finding halloweeny coloured floss and deciding on the charms!

I "framed" the Stashmas card from Mabel - I love it. The frame is much like a shadow box and the card looks beautiful in it.

Aww, that's lovely to see Debby!

Midge's pretty needlebook is doing already doing intense duty in the Figworthy household - I've added a few more needles and have now got a Tapestry side and a Crewel/Chenille side, so it's great for my on-the-go project box!
