In truth, I have enough of everything for several lifetimes. But, like Jello, there's always room for more, right?

Likes/would like to try
Coloris threads
anything to do with hardanger, such linen hardanger threads (these are quite specialised, so don't try too hard)
unusual threads or even Aran yarns (for weaving)
small Christmasy designs (I have a fondness for Just Nan and Victorian Sampler, and am happy to have pre-loved designs!)
something from where you come from?

Don't need/use
fabric (I have so much!)
regular DMC or Anchor threads (ditto!)
twee designs (the exception being bears; I mean, who doesn't love bears?)

I'm sure I'll be delighted with whatever my Stashmas Person sends. :snowman:

No kits please I swear I have a stores worth in my stash
I don’t particularly like fantasy

I like things interesting.
I'll be honest quick stitches are my thing right now as I have to get some cross stitching in between newborn naps, and mommy naps, the frosted pumpkin small ones is basically what I'm doing and even those are taken me 2 weeks when they used to take me a day.

Not a fan of printed canvas. I have all the DMC colours
