Well, whatever one wants to call them they are SOFT. Almost makes me wish he were a pillow, but then I had fuzz all in my hair. :thinks: Plus the wood would be rather uncomfy, lol. No, I think he's better suited as he is.

Glad you liked them Lisa :) I was wondering what to do for the personal item, then saw the picture in a book and it was perfect :) Lewisabeth, your new little Santa is gorgeous!

I recieved my stashmas gift yesterday. I got some lovely evenweave in pink ( my favourite colour) and lemon :wub: I also got some yummy scrummy chocolate truffles :drool: which sadly did not last the night (Full chocolatey tummy :D , I promise I did share them with my hubby and boys :( ) I also recieved the most beautiful card with acorns and leaves on it in gold thread. I will post photos later (but not of the chocolates as a picture of my tum will keep people away from the forum) @rotfl:

I think my stashmas giver was Sarah. Thank you so much.

You're right, it was me! I'm so glad you liked the things. The chocolates come from a recently opened shop around the corner from my flat, run by two lovely sisters - we're in there every Saturday sampling something different!

Now I can tell you a remarkable coincidence. My boyfriend comes from your city (used to live opposite the main hospital, where his Mum still does) and his hairdresser lives in your street (she's called Wendy and has a bright yellow Smart car). Simon was there having his hair cut about 3 weeks ago and left me at Wyevale Garden Centre to look at the aquariums - I was so dying to deliver your gift in person, hehehe.

Actually Sarah you were nearer to me than you realised. I live the other end of Crowland from Wyevale. It is such a shame you could have popped in for a cup of tea or something stronger :toast: :whistle:

Well, next time he's coming to have his hair done, I'll let you know and we can get together! His hairdresser lives at No 55 I think - must be about across the road from you somewhere maybe? We usually tie it in with a visit to his Mum as we don't get to see her that often now we're 80 miles away.

Don't forget to take a piccie of your stashmas! x
