I am so glad that you received your gift and very glad that you liked them as well. The fold in the Autumn Cats was because of trying to initially get it into a shipping package hope that it did not ruin the chart for you...I grimaced as I folded it

but then found the envelope so it fit perfect!!

It's here! IT'S HERE!!! My lovely, wonderful, gorgeous, fantastic, awesome Stashmas gift has arrived and I LOVE IT! Thank you so much, K1ns!

Picture 1:
4 scented DMC flosses (honeysuckle, apple, orange and strawberry)
2 14-count bookmark ribbands (with a free design attached!)
1 pack of plastic bobbins with metal ring

Picture 2:
14-count aida (with a free design inside!)

K1ns I am absolutely over the moon with my fabulous gift - I can hardly wait to start using them all! I may even create a new bokmark design specifically for one of the ribbands, and I think I'll be using the aida for one of the samplers I plan to stitch in the new year. I couldn't be happier! Thank you, thank you,thank you!

I'm glad! I know you said you didn't want anything too cutesy or cartoony...

I'm really wanting to get a copy of that book myself now. It's a lot bigger than I expected!! I'm so glad you enjoy it.

All these gifts look great. Happy Stashmas, everyone!

They do! I adore scented flosses and they add a lovely extra element to your stitching. I plan to make some beautifully scented samplers in the new year, choosing a "signature scent" for each, so you get a waft when you walk past them.

Scented samplers

What great Stashes!! The scented floss sounds interesting and fun.

Love all the stash all.

Everyone received such nice things.

For those of you that have used the scented flosses before, can you smell the flosses even if you frame the cross stitch behind glass?

Wow, some beautiful things there...

I wonder, now, who has the keys to the stash van? Jilly, was that you?
