Crossstitchforum - A FREE forum for Cross Stitchers

Based on popular demand the Stashmas 2022 Card Exchange is on!I For those who want to participate (the more the merrier), please let me know by October 21 since that will still give people time to get something done by Dec 1 which is the latest the card should be mailed. Mid November if you can manage it. Please also indicate what location(s) you are willing to send to. We know that parcels keep increasing in cost but I have no idea what the cost is for cards/letters etc. If you are concerned you can check with your local postal service. I'll post the final list on the 22nd of October but you can start stitching right now ! It was a lot of fun last year and to be honest, I think I enjoyed it even more than previous Stashmases. Seemed more personal to me.

I'll keep track of who is signed up here. If I miss someone make sure I know by Oct 21:

rcperryls - anywhere
richardandtracy - anywhere
fccs - anywhere
Sojourner - anywhere
wendywombat - anywhere
Roland - anywhere
Serinde - anywhere

Thanks to Sojourner for bringing this up.

I'll post anywhere

A reminder to those who want to participate in this year's card exchange. Your card doesn't need to be anything elaborate and if you are someone who hasn't stitched a card before and isn't sure how to do it, let us know and help is always available. I think the most fun part is when your card arrives at another's home. Still have a while to sign up, but don't wait too long. October 21 isn't that far away.

Carole

Back from holiday!

I'm in and will send anywhere.

Whew.!..Mine is finished!!

So? Now what, Carole?

Wombats are fast aren't they. on Oct 22, (since I said people have until the 21st to sign up) I'll post the list of who sends to who (I put names on paper and then pick them randomly. Will only edit if it is a repeat from last year) then you send a pm to your recipient to get an address and mail it and then wait (hopefully it will get delivered. If I sound skeptical it's because my grandson and his fiancee who live not more than 10 minutes from me, swear they mailed my invitation to their wedding 3 weeks ago and it hasn't arrived yet. Evidently a lot of invitations have not shown up where intended and almost all are local. ) Post when you have sent it. and post when you receive yours.

Umm! Well mine could go to anyone and as I'm a slow stitcher I thought I had better get a shift on.

Guess I'm not as much a slouch as I thought.

Who said that I'm a good wombat???

Good point!

Well, I have an idea for this... just need to consult the stash.

I’m not a slow stitcher (I don’t think) but I have so many things on the go. I decided to start my card back in July, hoping we would do the exchange again. So I have a few pictures stitched, and will choose after I know who it is for.
