Thank you! OMG, the barking dogs and screaming women are all day every day. I can't wait to be out of here. Of course, I'm all about the cat fabrics. I can't wait to set up my new craft room so I can make something with them! 😁

Thank you! Yes, I admit, at this point, my answer to every question is, "It's in a box." 🤣 I've got the plans. I just can't start on them for a hot minute. Happy New Year to you, too! 🎉

I have 14 WIPs. I'd like to get down to no more than 10. I'm anxious to get more progress on the Satsuma one, too. I love how it looks!

Happy New Year! 🎉

It's already overflowing. 🤣 This year will definitely be a "stitch from stash" year!

@ I am really excited to stitch from stash! So so so want to make a lot of progress on wips.

@istitchbirds Yes! I'm also looking forward to making space for new things! Lol

I can't wait to work on it again! Once we get moved in... 😅

Bellatrix is fully kitted. She'll be started sometime this year. The lemon balm jelly is so good! It tastes like lemon drops!

Baby Mario was a big hit. She can't wait to hang it in her new room. The Sushi Cat will have a prominent place in our new kitchen, according to Kevin! 🤣

@ Fantastic!!!! ❤️❤️❤️

Thank you! Yes, moving is definitely stressful. At least, we're moving to a much better place. That's something to look forward to! 😊

I hope you had a fabulous Christmas!

Thank you! The moving is fine. It's the packing that's exhausting. 😅

Thanks! By no means am I flawless, though. Lol

Thank you! We're diligently searching for a house. I hope you have a merry Christmas! 🎄❤️

You're very welcome! Merry Christmas! 🎄❤️

@HecatesNeedle-ei6xj Same to you and your family,!

Cats are always awesome. Lol

Happy holidays!

Merry Christmas!

You are absolutely correct in your guess of who the other doll is for. 😂 Yes, moving is a huge headache, but we're very excited. A new adventure! Maybe there will even be a good stitchy/sewing shop in our new home! There certainly aren't any here. Yes, I'll be careful. Kevin has already told the realtor that we don't want any stairs in our new house. He's tired of me falling off them! 🤣 I hope you and your family have a wonderful Christmas! 🎄❤️🎄

A pink pug! That's too perfect! Thank you! Yes, I've been trying to get him to find another job, so I was happy when he came home and told me he had an offer that he wanted to accept. I agree, life is just too short to stay in an environment that requires medication to withstand it. I'll get a flip through done if not tomorrow, then Saturday. I hope you and your family have a very merry Christmas! ❤️🎄

Thank you! I'm sure as soon as she watches this video, she'll also know who it's for. 😁 I can only hope she's behind on watching my videos. 🤣 Have a very merry Christmas! ❤️🎄

Happy Thanksgiving to you and Princess! Yeah, Stitchybox can count me out. At least I got some floss in earth tones that I can use for a pattern I want to start next year. The beads will likely not be used unless I use them for finishing. Honestly, the customer service killed it for me, but the random dollar store items were like the cherry on top. No need to even look at their offerings again. 🤷‍♀️ Enjoy your holiday! ❤️🦃💜

@HecatesNeedle-ei6xj if you like Primrose Cottage designs, they periodically put out a mystery box called Sip & Stitch. I bought my first one and received it this past week. I love it. I'll show it next time I record. Sign up for their newsletter to know when 5he next one goes on sale. (Plus free pattern on the first Friday of the month. )

@kayinthecave Awesome! I'll have to check it out. Thanks! 😊

Yes! Exactly! I could be more understanding if there was any communication, but it seemed as if she put no effort into either communicating with us or curating the box. Like you, I'll never order anything from her again. I'm sorry you had a bad experience. It's such a shame. I can think of so many items that could've gone into this box that would've been on theme and beautiful. This was an absolute fail. As for the seed paper, that's a definite no. I don't plant unknown seeds. I battle enough non-native invasives in my yard. I'm not about to take the chance of adding more!

@HecatesNeedle-ei6xj I also really wanted to use this box as a countdown to halloween. I was so frustrated when I saw that she was putting out a Halloween box and then got that one out before this one even got shipped when I had ordered it back in March. She didn't put up the halloween boxes until August

Yeah, I was pretty disgusted about that, too. As long as it took for us to actually receive this box, it should've been amazing. Instead, it looked like she just threw a bunch of random stuff in, copied and pasted some notes, and shipped it off. ☹️ It was just such a letdown. It certainly wasn't worth the 8 months it took to get it.

Thank you!

I can definitely be a disaster. 🤣

@@HecatesNeedle-ei6xj lol. That's all good. That's the best time 😂😍😜

I'm a complete klutz, and I'm always covered in mysterious bruises and scrapes. Lol

@@HecatesNeedle-ei6xj wow.. 😆😆 u good. It wouldn't be any nastier. Your fine.. I love your videos like how you're so open-minded. 😁👍

@Akadollazvino214 Thanks! 😊

Yay! Welcome! ❤️

@HecatesNeedle-ei6xj yess I doo. 😍

Oh, I'm definitely okay with it. It's the quickest part of the pattern for me! 😊

@ it’s one of the reasons I love blackwork. It works up quickly (unless I’ve been me and complicated it) 😜

@UrbanStitches I know, right??? 🤣 I do the same thing. Give me the simplest chart, and I'll find a way to give myself a migraine with it, for example, the guy on my Treasure Island WIP. One stitch is wrong, and the whole thing is messed up??? That's me, every time. Lol

@ I’m all for fudging where your brain will allow it. I find if I’m off on one of my model stitches I will correct it fully, otherwise I’m team fudge! 😜

@UrbanStitches Oh, absolutely! In the case of the Treasure Island, though, he was 1 of 6 or 7 guys. If they were all correct, and he was all cattywampus, it would've looked weird. Thus, dude got a makeover. 😂

Thank you! ❤️ I'm healing nicely. My husband is no longer afraid to be seen with me in public. 🤣 Yay for Halloween stitching! I do it all year. 😁 I'm excited for you to receive the bag. Happy stitching!!!

Better late than never! 🤣 I've begun working on the earth section of the Satsuma Street, but it's a small start. Of course, right now, it's all about the 2 Christmas projects. I'm ready to be done with those. 😁

The garden is definitely off-limits until Kevin finds and eradicates the poison ivy. I'm not taking any chances with that. He keeps threatening to wrap me in bubble wrap. 🤣 We can't do anything about the stinging/biting insects. That's just Texas. 🙄 Now that I'm getting better, I'll be stitching a lot more, so more progress next time!

Oh my gosh, I know what you mean about the fireworks! We're outside city limits, so our neighbors set them off on every single holiday, birthday, etc. My husband and I have grown to hate fireworks because we have them going off around us no less than twice a month. Your poor puppy. Give some extra pats from me. ❤️ I'm definitely excited about the gorgeous floss and needle minder and certainly plan to stitch those patterns!

🎉🎈🎉

You're so very welcome! I'll send you tracking as soon as I get it sent.

Oh, yeah, I'm so jealous! 😁 I'm just thankful we're not in the nineties anymore. I suppose I'll just have to be grateful for that. Enjoy your autumn weather! 🍁🍂🍃

@@HecatesNeedle-ei6xj Thank you!

Thank you! I'm glad you like it! 😊 How cool that we stitch similar things! We'll be enabling each other. 😁

Well, so many of them were either from you or enabled by you. Lol. You know me so well! 😁

My flip-through of the Christmas edition is here: th-cam.com/video/KWs7vH7ajKU/w-d-xo.htmlsi=RVsSwsG57vutQIpa It had some nice designs in it that I plan to stitch. I love the Beautiful Biomes. It's been a very enjoyable stitch. Oh my Jelly Bean...he's a holy terror. 🤣 I adore him! He keeps us from getting bored. 😂 He's an absolute demon up until he gets sleepy. At that point, he turns into a bundle of snuggles and purrs. How could I possibly be mad at him? Lol

@@HecatesNeedle-ei6xj Thank you! Yes, I'm probably the only person that has not bought it yet. 😏

I got it with my subscription. That's why I got it so early. I used to wait until it was at a local store so I could look through it first. 🤣

Yeah, there are just too many cute patterns! You know, I bought the hourglass kit specifically for my son, but I'm tempted to get another one for me. 😂

Thank you! ❤️ I'm hoping to get to more holiday projects. I need to stop stressing myself out with making so many of our Christmas gifts. 😂 My husband is awesome about my hobbies. Honestly, though, he says he likes having the house decorated with unique homemade things. Fingers crossed for your finishes! 🤞🤞🤞

I've got 2 pumpkins waiting to be pureed in the kitchen. Lol

Thank you!

Thank you! Yes, I need to get the Christmas stitching done. I want to get some of my other WIPs finished, but I need to focus on the Christmas stitching. I'm hoping, though! Lol The plastic envelopes were from Amazon. They help so much! They make such a difference for someone as scatterbrained as me. 🤣

Thank you!

Thank you!

We'll be 2 400 year old ladies stitching away together! 😊 Laura will probably be with us! 😂 The cup has helped. No more trying to decide which one to stitch next. Just pull one out of the cup! 😁

@@HecatesNeedle-ei6xj I think I'll make my cup 🥳 And yes, 2400 sounds more realistic 🤣

Especially since we just keep adding charts as we go. 😂

@@HecatesNeedle-ei6xj Not our fault! Designers keeping on giving 🤷‍♀️ and we just have to support them 🤭

@missinginastitch Very true! We're supporting artists!

It looks like I'll be doing a giveaway for Halloween! 😂
