Its STASHMAS !!!!! :whoop: :whoop: :whoop:

Here is my gorgeous gift from Laura (Lady S)

Image

It is amazing - THANK YOU SO MUCH LAURA.

It was in gorgeously bright Christmasy wrapping (see left side) a lovely chart about Blessings which I am sure will have multiple uses, 2 lovely big pieces of even weave 1 an antique white 28ct and the other a soft buffy colour 25ct; an ever useful perle #5 white; a pkt of 26 Piecemakers needles; a beautiful card with gorgeous kitties playing on it in a matching envelope.

All so useful, so lovely and I am totally spoilt. THANK YOU SO MUCH LAURA. Your gift is amazing and just oh so right. :D

Well! I've been a lucky gal: a lovely piece of ice blue lugana, Mill Hill seed beads in Christmas colours plus the most gorgeous green bugle beads (of which I had none!), the most colourful silk thread I've ever seen (lorikeet -- are they really this colour??) and a simply beautiful Ink Circle design which will complement my other two completed ones. Not forgetting the lovely tatted ornament, which is amazing. Merry Stashmas, and thank you so much, Kuschelshaf. :dance: :king: :snowman:

:whoop: :whoop: :whoop: Thank you, Sally/Squirrel!!!

My Stashmas gift is amazingly perfect: a dragonfly chart, a calendar with super cute bear charts, gorgeous fibers (silk...ahhhhh), little sharp and pretty scissors, a beautiful hardanger card, eedles (yes!), a chart for pretty lorikeets (that keep her company while she stitches), sparkly pretty purple fabby, and gorgeous Jobelan. (Sally, how did you know I had that EXACT piece of Jobelan in my 123stitch wishlist?) Oh, and a lovely letter giving me the history of my gifts, which make them even more special! I wish I didn't have to work today so I could play with my new treasures!

(Oh, and the picture is taken on my brand new dining room table...delivered yesterday.)

I couldn't wait to open my present!!! Thank you so much Jerrylee!

I got:
Some aperture cards (I love making cross stitch cards so these will be put to good use!)
A Mill Hill beaded ornament kit :wub:
A bookmark kit
The cutest (handmade?) apron made of aida! I've started looking for the perfect chart for it

I also got a calendar of places in Slovakia, a wafer bar which looks yummy, and a postcard!

They're all such thoughtful presents; I love small kits and I'm looking forward to stitching on that cute apron!
