Did Santa bring you Stash?
I'm so pleased - I got stitching stash from Santa for the first time ever!
Very happy to have found under my tree:
- a MASSIVE load of 18-count aida (ivory)
- 3 large floss storage boxes
- the pattern-a-day cross stitch calendar
- 2 Charlie's Ark kits
Did anyone else get stash from Santa?

Re: Did Santa bring you Stash?
I will never expect to receive stash. DH and I no longer formally exchange gifts but we make agreed upon purchases for our hobbies. I am awaiting two cross stitch orders of floss, Aida and patterns as well as a box and sippy cup that I will be doing for gifts. The anticipation of getting those is enough of a gift. Just eying a mini Christmas banner kit this morning as well.

Merry Christmas!
I got a generous gift certificate for the local craft store, so that counts as future stash!

Re: Did Santa bring you Stash?
Still to early here to have opened anything but since I did not as for any stash I shouldn't get any.

Re: Did Santa bring you Stash?
I got a new snap frame, and having to wait nearly a month to be able to use it was driving me nutty! A 10$ gift card for Michaels. I bought two HAED patterns (both SK's) as a gift to myself. And I have 50$ to figure out what to do with... hmmm maybe stashy, maybe not.
Oh, and Merry Christmas and seasons greetings to everyone! (before I go all goofy and forget)

Re: Did Santa bring you Stash?
I didn't get any stash, but it wasn't on my list either. Trying to cut down on the stash collecting 'til I've finished a few more pieces. I did get a guitar though!! Very happy about that.

Re: Did Santa bring you Stash?
No stash for Christmas but I didn't ask for any. I had so much stash last year that lots of it hasn't been touched yet so the family decided to give it a miss. I got lots of lovely gifts though and feel that I'm a very lucky lady indeed.
Re: Did Santa bring you Stash?
As I said before, no stash as such, but this surprise. I watched it grow under hubby's hands but believed it was for someone else.
Okay, have to play at posting photos. Maybe learning that can be Christmas present to myself.

Got it!!! My normal mistake occurred. I was making it more complicated than it was.

Re: Did Santa bring you Stash?
Oooh I like that.
No stash for me this year, didn't really need any
However I feel a little look at sewandso is not too far away.

Re: Did Santa bring you Stash?
No stash for me under the tree (no tree either)... I got a book about Paul Newman from my ex-husband, and a beautiful, hand made leather belt from my daughter - but unfortunately (or luckily?
) it is too big, so some new holes will have to be made on it.
But I received a wonderful New Stitches magazine from Jilly.
So I took a deep breath and I have ordered it for myself for the next year

Re: Did Santa bring you Stash?
Hubby really came through this year!
* 11 x 11 Q-Snap frame (my first one)
* An extra scroll frame
* A bobbin organizer
* A water soluble gridding pen (I don't actually have one yet)
* 2 HAED patterns!! I don't think he wants to see me at all this year.
- Dance of Kokopelli (I LOVE the Southwest)
- Bubble Telescope -- I showed hubby this one because Sarah was working on it and he liked it so much that he ordered it for me!
He said I can make it for the nursery room for our not-even-conceived yet children.

Re: Did Santa bring you Stash?
Nope, I never get stash, but that's okay, I like to pick stuff out myself. I suppose if I gave DH a very specific list to shop from, I might get something.

Re: Did Santa bring you Stash?
I didn't get any stash either, but that's okay, I've already got heaps of projects to keep me busy for years!

Re: Did Santa bring you Stash?
I didn't get any stash either but I have so many kits/fabric/threads etc. DH probably thought I didn't need any!
