Oh my, where do I even begin? I got a tote bag, chocolate, a super cute tiny kit of a black cat and a water pump, a beautiful autumn kit, and a fun little "book" that has some needles, buttons, a threader, and counting pins...oh, and I can't forget the cute Christmas card.

Image

Everything is perfect! The little book is wonderful because I love everything in it AND I love little cute things like this. The two kits are perfect because I love autumn and I used to have a solid black cat. The tote bag is perfect because I love tote bags...my philosophy is one can never have too many. And the chocolate is perfect because well, duh!, it's chocolate!

Thank you frenchiejo!!

So glad it didn't take 28 days to get to you, I was a tad bit worried it would. And I'm supper happy that I could fill in your missing colors. Two of those colors were just released, not sure which two now. And I was disappointed that the oranges weren't as red as I thought they would be.


My stashmas pictures are currently uploading so as soon as I have them I will share what I recieved.

Thank you all for sharing pictures of your gifts, I have thoroughly enjoyed the drooling (my keyboard not so much :lol: ). Thank you too, to the wonderful peeps who made this all work so smoothly. But most of all thank you Tiffany (tiffstitch) for my amazing gift. Firstly, the stitched piece you did is fantastic and I will dig out a square coaster today to see if it will fit so I can keep it looking perfect :D . You are a bad girl :neutral: .....as I am going to have to start a new start using the chart and fabric you sent :D .....as soon as I stop dribbling that is :lol:


Oh! You want pictures.....ok then, happy to add to the dribbling...I mean festivities :lol:

First the stitching
Image
now the stash
Image
and finally my new siw (start in waiting)

Thank you again everyone and Merry Stashmas to all :D :applesauce:

WOW Heidi, what a fabulous Stashmas package that is and of course you have to start it right now. Hope the drool hasn't made too much of a mess on it all. :lol:

Marilyn, so delighted your package has arrived today and all so right too for just what you need to fill the gaps.

Wonderful gifts everyone. :lol: :applesauce: :dance: :dance:

Wonderful gifts everyone! So generous...

Dragonrider, I stitched The snapdragon, can't find the SAL though. I did it in HDF silk, it was fab to stitch, and now hangs on my living room wall where I can admire it all the time...

Sorry it's taken me so long to post! I happily opened my gift very early on Stashmas morning (or very late on Stashmas Eve, depending on how you want to look at it), and then went to sleep. I proceeded to be very busy and distracted by less exciting things yesterday and didn't even get around to taking pictures until this morning.

I made my husband watch me open, because I was too excited to keep it to myself. He tried valiantly to look interested but I'm afraid he failed. :P

Anyway, on to the pictures!

Image

Image

I got lots of pretty fabrics, including some lovely silky ones, and some great pieces of stitching fabric that will be perfect for ornaments. I got a wonderful bookmark kit, complete with fabric, chart, and threads. There are also some other threads in there as well. And of course, one of my favorite things is the lovely card that Serinde stitched for me.

Serinde, I am absolutely delighted with my gifts. Thank you and merry Stashmas!

I love the paper! And so did my stitching buddies
Image

I received three lovely charts, a pack of needles that came in a cute baggie which ran off I believe before I took this picture, some very pretty fabric and pretty thread. And yes I just realized the picture uploaded upside down and I can't turn it around from the app..

Image

The pretty thread
Image

And fabric
Image

Chart one
Image

Chart two
Image

And chart three
Image

Which means I only have 5 snowmen to collect before I can stitch them all together :)

Thank you bunches! I love them all!!!
