I put mine above my head on the shelf above my desk, so I can't see it and obsess over it

Yesterday I was looking for something in a corner of my sitting room and spotted where I had hidden my Stashmas parcel so checked the calendar and yes it is only just 3 short days away.

Well now, as per usual I will kick off the gifts received. I was going to wait a while but I need to start preparing dinner (evening meal) and get it on cooking for DS and I so here goes.
Gabrielle -Curious Kitty - thank you so very much for a most innovative and lovely gifts and a learning curve as well.
The package which arrived recently.
Finally got through all the heavy duty cellotape etc to find this -
Carefully lift and spread the paper and this is what I found inside.
A most gorgeous, elegant beautiful Rosewood laying tool; A thingy called and thumbdrive : (never seen one of these before) and a gorgeous Thomas Kincaid card with a lovely note inside
I have had a peek at the 'thumb drive' but will wait for my DD to come home on Tuesday for a better look at the lovely stitching Gabrielle has done plus will download the chart of the 2 owls.
Anything Thomas Kincaid is an added bonus, I love his thoughtful paintings and have 2 of them as small jig saw puzzles which get an airing from time to time.
THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH GABRIELLE. YOU ARE A
FOR SURE.

Nicola is a very naughty stitcher! Look at the wonderfulnesses I received today! I love the coaster (and have hidden the chocolate), the ＃12 pearl balls are so Christmassy and I do love understated variegated threads. The wonderful book means I might finally understand a lot of stitching techniques and the wool! Well, that's just OTT -- feeding the peg-weaving monster. Thank you So Much!!

Such lovely Stashmasses everyone! So glad you like your gifts Serinde! Now you see why I had to put them all in a bigger padded envelope! Was scared of squashing them all!
