Additional Information

It was suggested I updated my wishlist so herewith....

Fabric - my eyesight now dictates a little so I prefer 32/36 count linens
- I particularly like the hand-dyed linens I see on American websites - especially in the neutral shades or light blue, light green, cream etc

Thread - I love overdyed threads - blues greens reds (not oranges, yellows, purples)

Charts - apart from those below I love charts that are for items that don't need to be framed.
- needlework necessities (pincushions, needlebooks, scissor keepers, biscornus, needlerolls etc )
- I love hardanger and samplers that have stitches other than just cross stitch too
- I love quaker, monchrome, Biblical, Christmas, and samplers.

Non-stitching - I love dark chocolate, pens, notebooks, needlework notions and SURPRISES!!!

And a few general things

I love over dyed and variegated flosses, Threadworx WDW,Crescent Colours, Gloriana, GAST, The Thread Gatherer. I love blue (like the sky and the ocean), red (rich deep wine red - not like a fire engine!), green (like the forest and the hills) I love the darker richer colours in cotton or silk. I really like those interesting hand dyed linen's and stitch on 28, 32 and 35 count. I like John James needles.My favourite designs are I really love Black Licorice and dark chocolate. I love tins and boxes that I can use for projects or for storage. I like notebooks (that I can carry in my handbag)I love reading; spy stories, thrillers, family sagas. I love Anne of Green Gables (it’s 100 years since that book was written!!) and the old classics. I love classical music – especially Beethoven, Bach and Mozart
I really want the Prairie Schooler Freebie PEEP too if anyone can spare copy
