I've not framed anything yet - only used them on small items that didn't need framing I would think, however, that you wouldn't be able to smell them behind glass.DraconicWench wrote: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?

Re: Stashmas: Show and tell!
I received my stashmas presents yesterday
I had to go to a karate class last night (I'm sore today) and couldn't get up this morning so haven't had time to post pictures yet but they are beautiful, with a wonderful blue theme (I love blue!) and a fantastic stashmas card and pictures will follow tonight 


Re: Stashmas: Show and tell!
All the stashmas presents have been so thoughtful and fun. Doncha just love Stashmas?

Re: Stashmas: Show and tell!
My wonderful stashmas gifts...

The lovely Trylla sent me...
- The perfect stashmas card (sit, stitch and be merry!)
- A postcard from Niagara falls, where she grew up and where I would love to visit
- A lovely stained glass window keyring, I just have to think of where I can use it (possibly at work)
- A beautiful cameo-style needle minder, I have seen and admired similar designs in the past but always thought they were a bit indulgent to buy for myself
- A pack of size 26 needles
- Some hand-dyed 16 count aida in "mystic"
- Gentle art sampler threads in Morning Glory, Blue Jay and Midnight
- Rainbow Gallery Hi-lights threads in white and blue
All in all, I'm thrilled to bits and can't wait to think of something I want to do in those beautiful shades of blue! Thank you so much Trylla, it's absolutely wonderful!

I'm so very glad you like it all. I had so much fun picking out just the right shades to go together. Enjoy!!
Re: Stashmas: Show and tell!

Re: Stashmas: Show and tell!
Here is a photo of my Stashmas gift. I got it from someone from Australia but I couldn't make out who. Sorry, dear Sender, would you reveal yourself?

Some DMC thread, among them a variegated one which doesn't show in the photo, bobbins, thread winder, floss organiser, a bead-nabber - all very useful and I didn't have any of them so really happy. The two Christmasy frames will make perfect gifts, too.
Thank you so much!
