Stashmas Wishlists

Post by JazzeyBear »

Hey guys! So sorry that I didn't post this last night, was excited that my pictures uploaded to photobucket that I forgot. Once you signed up for stashmas, this is where you will post your wish lists. Remember sign-ups close September 30th at midnight (central) time and wish lists need to be posted by that time as well. You can edit wish lists up until that time.
If you've already posted your wish list, please repost in this thread so it's easier for your sender to find it here




Likes
Pretty thread
Small cute patterns
Pretty fabric (nothing above 28 count, and nothing smaller than 16 count)
Needles (size 28)
Dmc threads (no black)
Anchor 410 (black only)


Dislikes
Any fabric above 28ct and below 16ct


I'm pretty easy to buy for. Anything will be welcomed

:coffee: I would love some Cresent Cotton Thread, small designs of Scotties and/or small pieces of pretty fabrics. My favorite colors are burgandy, pink and moss greens.
I collect Scotties.

I am not crazy about: I can't think of anything that I don't like so you can send anything you like and I will enjoy it.
Cheerio,
Kathy
