Good to hear from you today, Chris and glad you are doing well and enjoying your spring. Have a good May and enjoy your time at your stitching retreat - how fun! 🤗 ❤
Hello , Chris! Please, I beg of you, stitch that scarecrow. 🤩😁 He is perfect. Lovely to see you! So happy to hear you're well and building new things onto your home to make it even more fit for you.
Thanks for checking in. Everyone needs a break. It’s finally stopped raining in SoCal so I’ve done more walking and chatting with neighbors which means less stitching time. It’s so pretty out and the ocean is beautiful. The air smells so fresh and I can open my windows and doors again. I’m glad you are happy with your house. I moved from Burbank to coastal Orange County eight years ago after I retired. I still love it here as much as I did when I moved. Love your ornament with its bright colors. Enjoy spring and check in when you feel like it.
Oh yes! I’ve gone through a month long no stitch time, just now picking it back up when I want to, knowing it will come back on its own. Take your time! Thank you for checking in. 🧵🪡☮️🌷
So glad you stopped in to say Hi. Life can get busy, and our stitching is a hobby, so I understand for the lack of projects to show. Have a fun time at Stitch Con and with the spring/summer activities.
Thank you for checking in. I certainly miss you and the joy that you bring but also respect your need to do videos when they work for you. You are a gift to us whenever we see you.
I am so glad to see you. You make my day so much better. I understand about the lack of stitching & spring. My clients & I are getting out garden beds ready for planting. We have gotten some plants but are caring for them in the garage & also have tried for the first time starting some from seeds. I would LOVE a segment or 2 on your gardening if your stitching is low. My knitting is low right now. I have one thing that is on my needles that I have had a hard time wanting to finish but need to. I love spinning yarn at this time of year because I can do it outside & there is something about spinning that is so loving and meditative.
Hi Chris! So glad you are having a "stitchy rest" and checking in with us neighbours 😍 I love your happy smiles ! I find that when I am in a "stitchy funk" I start watching Flosstubes and it picks me up :) Glad you liked the funky cat ensemble. Neighbour Joanna from Vancouver Island Canada. I MISS YOUR STORIES haha
So glad to see you Chris. You and I are now tied with the number of videos finished. A nonsensical fact! And you’re right, there’s so much to do in the Spring. And it’s all so beautiful, isn’t it? Will look forward to whenever you can come back.
Hi Chris glad you popped in and let us know your doing great and happy. You are missed when you are not here, I know life gets in the way of things sometimes and its understandable, Your little ornament is cute. Happy stitching when you get to it
G’day Chris, lovely to hear from you and glad you are ok. Isn’t Four Calling Birds just the cutest thing? Love the colours and the theme of birds with the telephone. Enjoy your little break and we will catch up with you again soon. Love and best wishes from Down Under 😘💕🪡🧵🇳🇿.
Thanks for checking in, Chris. Certainly glad to see you and hear your voice, and hear you are doing well. Hope your build goes smoothly. Thanks for sharing your pics of your kitty and of the snow. Maryland did not see much snow, but we did have more than in past years. Always so pretty and peaceful. Take care, Chris. Stay well.
Glad to see you! I had a week or two where I did no stitching - visiting family, yard work, etc. and now all I want to do is stitch all day...and stay out of the pollen, as my hay fever is acting up. Hope the deck building goes exactly as you want it.
So good to see you Chris. I’m relieved to know you’re well. You have my permission to have a “life” as it only comes around once and you need to grab all you can. Until next visit, hugs and kisses. ❤
Good to hear from you. Sometimes we all need a break. I'm so glad you are happy in your new home. We also had late snow this Spring here in WI. Marilyn
Thrilled to see you! This is "the other Jane" lol.. Thank you for a happy chuckle, your Spring Has Sprung reminded me of a luttle car ride with hubby, he's not talking as much, kind of rattled all the time. Well we stopped at a light and out of the blue he recited the entire gem, right to the the funny thing, i always thought the wing was on the bird ☺️. Then he was gone again. But it was awesome. I have alway appreciated you and your thoughtfulness. Bless you and yours. Btw, i have a black cat, rescue, huge, eye challenges (I'd sure like to see what shee sees, when young she was SO flighty and ran into things at high speed, jumped from and fell from crazy hights. Now at about 3, she's a beauty but takes no nonsense from anyone or anything. Hilarious sometimes, scarey others. Never dull around here!! As alwas, you've enabled me again. Have you see the Chickens from Satsuma Street? Love them and I'm not a chicken lady. lol. THANK YOU ❤ 💜🐾💜🐾🐈⬛🐾
Thanks for checking in! Four Calling Birds is so cute! My son has a magnolia tree and seems it never lasts more than a couple days with the wind. Wish you were going to be at weekend A.
Hi Chris It’s so lovely to see you and have a catch up with you. The snow looked amazing , the last time I saw Snow like that was when I lived in Suffolk. I hope your decking gets sorted soon and any other jobs so that you can sit and enjoy it for a while. Don’t worry we will be here waiting for your return. Take care my friend. 👵 x p.s. you’re looking really well. X
Thanks for checking in. Am so happy your doing well. Completely understand. So much to do in the springtime and summer. It goes by so quickly. Just like housework, our stitching waits for us. Lol take care my friend!!
Not sure how I missed your sweet check in video. And yes, we love you with or without stitching! You are just such an enjoyable human being. ❤ Hope you are well and just enjoying life. Yes, I lose my stitchy bug once in a while. Especially during spring or summer. No apologies, just you be you
Oh wow bless the gang at Stitch Con weekend B that has the pleasure to meet Chris. I’m green with envy. I hope you have a great time, I hope the stitching bug bites you in the behind and gets your attention. But if not, that’s okay too, your stitching will always be there, like a dear old friend, you’ll just pick up where you left off. ❤
Thanks so much for checking in, if we just got 15 min of you each month I’d be happy, just don’t leave us! I agree with the awakening spring fever that happens, don’t worry your bug will come back. Life is good! Love ya bunches Chris!
I know what you mean about losing your stitchy bug It happened with my quilting bug and I turned to cross stitch until the quilting bug returned! I did read somewhere where if you can no longer express yourself in a craft area to turn to another creative outlet and it will help return energy to the one you began to feel stale. It does take some time. So go be free and creative! Thank you for checking in! (for some reason when you showed that scare crow, I saw you in that outfit dancing!) : )
Hello, Christopher! Glad you popped in to say hello and happy spring. It’s the time of year we all get busy with outdoor chores and projects. Enjoy your second springtime in your new home. We will see you when we see you! ❤
Hi Chris! I view stitching as an Art. I have painted in the past then started to Cross Stitch. I aspire to work on my projects every day but must be in the "correct" frame of mind to be happiest. Just check in once and awhile.
Thanks for checking in. I've been working on Spring Quaker from Lila's Studio since I started it in the middle of April. Actually took a break from it tonight to try and crochet a dishcloth. I've just started relearning crochet. Maybe this time I'll stick with it. Take care!
It's always a pleasure to see a video from you.. thanks for saying hi! "Life" is in full swing everywhere I think.. I'm way behind with watching videos and have been enjoying what FINALLY seems like spring here in the northeast US. 🪡👠
I’ll be at weekend B of Stitch-Con also! It will be my first retreat and I’m so excited. I’ll be bringing Satsuma ornaments to stitch…something that I can see!!
Good to see you again, Chris! I had forgotten what a gorgeous black kitty you have. Are your magnolias the "tulip tree" kind that put out blooms first and leaves later? We have several scattered around my part of town and to me they always say that spring is around the corner. My stitchy bug has come back but is taking its own sweet time getting back up to speed.
Chris it is wonderful to hear that you will be at weekend B of Stitch-con. That is the weekend that I'm going I would like to meet you. I have been in you neighborhood since the very beginning. Hope to see you there.
LOL I always lose my stitchy bug around this time too. I want to be outside planning my garden and cleaning up from the spring storms that roll through after being inside most of the winter. I'll get back into it full throttle come fall but spring and summer really cuts in on my stitching time. Yay Weeknd B! If you are coming in early a group of us are going to dinner Wed night and you are more than welcome to join us! Look forward to seeing you there. PS I'm the magnifying glasses neighbor 🤓
Great to see you Chris! I know what you mean, I've been gardening during the day and stitching some at night. Haven't touched my sewing machine all year but plan to before summer. Sometimes we have to prioritize esp. for a deck and spa so you can use it in season. Sounds fun! 🌷🐝🌸🐞🌻
I’m all caught up with you now! I’m so glad your move to the north east has been all that you wanted it to be. So happy for you! Looking forward to meeting you at Stitch Con! This will be my second retreat as I went to the first weekend of stitch north in April. Cannot wait!! 😊
Welcome Back & thanks for checking in. Happy Spring. Can not wait to see you next month and hopefully you will get your stitching bug back in order. Happy Stitching.
Happy stitching at StitchCon. Missed you. But yes, life sometimes messes things up. But we just keep going. We all will be here whenever you come back. Love your videos. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
HOLD THE OTHER VIDEOS!!!! Chris has a new one up… run, don’t walk and watch it now. Thanks for checking in. I hope you enjoy stitch con, will this be your first retreat? See you later
Thanks for the check! I’m telling you, even without much stitching done, you still inspired me to stitch! Looking forward to you next season!
Thanks for checking in! Happy Spring and looking forward to season three when you're ready!
Good to hear from you today, Chris and glad you are doing well and enjoying your spring. Have a good May and enjoy your time at your stitching retreat - how fun! 🤗 ❤

Stitching or no stitching it's good to see you. ❤❤❤😊
Good to see you! Don’t wait too long to come back, I love your videos and stories!
Your cat gifts are so fun. I have 4 cats and they are all fun and loving and all have different personalities.
We are SO excited to have you at Stitch-Con!
I can't WAIT! Booked my flight today, as a matter of fact! xoxo Chris

Hi Chris! Thanks for popping in. It was great to hear from you. Happy Spring 🥰.
I have sure missed you thank you for the visit.
Hello Chris, I really missed you. I'm glad that you are well. I have been spring cleaning and gardening myself.
I am having iron infusion therapy and have not stitched due to my hands aching as a side effect. Great to see you and love the haircut!🪡🧵🧡
Yes, I also have taken a bit of a break from cross stitch . It happens from time to time. Thanks for stopping in.
