I converse with myself - sort of like you do... have finally decided to go with the interest and joy... if I'm enjoying what I'm stitching on, I just stitch. When it gets 'heavy' or the colours irritate, I switch out. Enjoying the stitch along! Thanks much!
Your cats eyes are unreal. What a beautiful blue they are. Loved stitching with you as usual ♥
Loved watching today thank you for your time ❤
I’m working on Delphine from the sewing shop Canada.
I just came across your channel the other day, and I love it! Really enjoyed this SWM. I’m working on Felice by Paine Free Crafts. I have a black and white cat, so I’m really having fun with it. Your cat is beautiful! Thanks for sharing that video of her. Too cute 😊
Hi!
I love your stitching alongs. Thanks for doing them. I am stitching on wild spirit from merejka and itching myself to start a new one 😂. If I do the start it will be dancing in swirls from TDKJdesign from etsy.
Stay well ❤
I always enjoy your stitch with me videos and hearing about your plans. Happy stitching 💜
Thank you. By the way, I loved your wip parade and I LOVE your piece - 'A place of her own.' It is on my wishlist. I was so close to purchasing it. Incredible work. x 😊
@@TheStitchyWitch aww 🥰 thank you!
I'm still working on The Grand Library. Now at 44.95%. So close to 50% 😊. Did have a new start to have a little change. I started the freebie Forest Maiden from HAED. I wanted to do something I could try cross country all over rather than just a 30 X 30 I've been doing. Have started with the black and enjoying it so much. The Grand Libray has too much confetti to try. Didn't think I would like it. The black was a good choice to start with as it outlines everything and is mostly connected. About 24,000 stitches in all. Will be on that for a while. It's given me a fresh excitement I needed. Your cat is adorable 😍 thanks for sharing her.
Omg Misty has the most extraordinary blue eyes. She is simply gorgeous! Such a precious girl, and surely a wonderful stitching buddy! I personally think that cat hair on my stitching is a mark of honor, that we are loved by our little furry companions! Stunning stitching as well, as always! ❤
I totally agree! Thanks for watching 😊
Love seeing Happy Village but fun to see what you are working on. I am more of a cross country stitcher because I hate sorting through parked threads 😊.
Stitching with you on my Amy Stewart's HEAD Beach Combers Bounty. First full coverage currently at 6.75%. Thanks for the video and chat. Your new plans sound great. 😊
I’m so glad I stumbled across your channel yesterday! Your voice is so soothing and love listening to your stitchy chat. Misty is a beautiful girl!! My girls also like to try and get into my threads, Bobbi has mastered how to take the lid off. I was stitching on Vibrant Fusion by Stitches Sew Beautiful. Her charts are fantastic, there is confetti but not ridiculous amounts like some of the HAED charts.
Thank you, I enjoyed this session. I’m working on HAED Patron Saint of Green Chile by Jeff Haynie. I’m about 200 stitches off a page finish and am working monogamously as it is currently at 84%. Next up when this one is done I will be working on HAED Alpaca which is around 60%. The village looks quite charming, but the Dickensian WIP would be fun to see.
hey! love your videos ;) and love this piece! thank You for working on this, otherwise i would need to work on this myself (and i also have too many project already ;DD so you are my saver and a hero! )
i have so many similarities in "planing" everything and "changing my mind"!
yeah... i guess most important is just to enjoy what are You doing and in the end every stitch counts, no matter in what order it has been worked on.. ;)
by the way. the easiest way for you to know your percentage on this piece: its just minus 50% from the "current progress" (it should be accurate if you decided not to do half of the chart) ;)
I can’t believe how far you’ve gotten. You enabled me and I’m still in the sky. Yours is looking so nice!!!
Thank you!
Thank you for another stitch with me video. I'm working on Fractal-020 by Mystic Stitch. Almost finished (86% done 😊)
I love how this one is turning out. Very pretty! I am focusing on my Ginger Cat in July. I'm not sure how much I'll get done because I will have grandkids here for 2 weeks, but little bit is better than none.
Grandkids time - always special, Enjoy !
Just started watching your videos and I am enjoying you and your stitching so much. The last year I have really been enjoying full coverage and that seems to be what you enjoy doing also. Right now I’m stitching Luca-S Paris in Flowers. I only have two full pages left out of 8.
You are so welcome!
Great catch up with you ❤
I know what you mean with committing to a certain amount a day, I've learned my lesson and put my Lord of thr rings away so I can focus on other things. I think your crop is a great idea 💡 and with the HAED sal I'm feeling like I might UFO mine completely but I'm still not sure x
@DarkXStitch Hi! I have been meaning to message you!
Yep, don't worry about UFO-ing the SAL. No-one needs that stress. I nearly did the same. I concluded that I'm not going to spend my time stitching on stuff I don't want to be stitching since I hit 50!
Enjoy seeing your updates. Bet life as a grandma is both thrilling and tiring. xx 😘
@TheStitchyWitch it definitely is but it's worth it 💓 yeah I think with the sal I'm going to sit on it for a few more days then decide if its worth keeping, I literally haven't touched it for about 3 months now I think x
Hi Carla, I think I've got an idea for you with the cropped chart. When you upload the pattern again in Pattern Keeper as a new one and mark of the cropped part, you know the amount of stitches and the percentage of that part. So now it's easy to do the math on the real PK chart. E.g. if your crop is 53 % and your WIP is at 63%... you've stitched 10%.
Thanks Joyce, that's a great tip!
Hi Carla … I’ve been watching your channel for a while and really enjoy it and your full coverage projects. I am about to embark on my first 25 ct gridded even weave, 2 over 1 tent stitch. I’ve been binging videos and am hearing some folks struggling with the fabric “slanting” because you’re only stitching in one direction and not “returning” to complete the X. I’m wondering if you’ve ever had this problem with your fabric and if so, how do you deal with it? My new start is a HAED called Mini Roses Golden Shadows by Erin Dertner-this is one I’ve never seen anyone on flosstube do yet. Thank you for your videos as I always enjoy them and pick up great tidbits about stitching. Best to you!
Congrats on your new start. I've never had a slanting problem. Some say the issue is one of tension and pulling too much in one direction
You could try alternating the way you do some of the half stitches
i.e. reversing the bottom left to top right to randomly stitching from top right to bottom left or whichever direction you stitch is.
Hope you find a good solution.
This is a pretty pattern. There's a stitcher in Asia with a channel name of "rin" that is only doing a portion of the chart.
This is such a beautiful chart, and I love your progress. I too have way to many charts I want to do and not enough years left in my lifetime to stitch them all. Seeing you and some other stitchers decide to crop and do only parts of the charts has really inspired me to do the same. I stitch most of my full coverage charts in tent stitch just so I can get it done faster. May I ask how you finish your threads? I'm always looking for new and better ways. I find it much more difficult to end threads when tent stitching only because I want to finish from the front and I have a difficult time doing tent stitches on 28 count.
Hi! Thank you! Approximately here 30:38 I am ending a thread at the front. 😊😊
@@TheStitchyWitch Awesome thank you. Is that just an away thread? If so I see how you would anchor that pretty quickly since you're stitching row by row. Do you have a different method for cross country?
I rarely do cross country, but yes the method is the same.
If I occasionally stitch in hand, I will just flip the work and end at the back. Hope that is helpful 😊
I’m also having trouble with Astrology Cat. I’m in the same boat. Because I HAVE to work on it, I don’t want to lol
You should definitely start A Woman Stitching. I started it but I’m gonna crop the bottom instead of the top. You’re right though, the top does have a bunch of dark colors. I also have Stitcher’s Retreat which I’m gonna stitch as the companion piece. That’s the one Karen Bugg did a few years ago
Wow yep I also have stitchers retreat. For another year maybe! 😀
I love your channel. It's fun to see what you are working on. I looked for the HAED chart A Lady Sewing but could not find it. Any ideas of where i could find it? Do I have the name of the chart right?
Hi Mary, A lady sewing in an interior by Delphin Enjolras was a chart available temporarily by heaven and earth designs. They often give out some charts for a limited period of time only. Other than that I can only see it online as an art poster. Sorry.
Your work is beautiful! I am learning to do full coverage, even though I have been stitching for years. Is this 25ct? I just love your idea of cropping this.
Yes it is 25 easy count evenweave.
Since you asked, today I'm stitching Tree Frogs, by Charting Creations. I'm also working on the following HAEDs
It's About Time (Ciro Marchetti),
Fingers of God (Golden Orb Designs)
Cotton Candy Dragon
and I just finished Beloved (Adele Sessler)
Wow, those are some impressive charts! Thanks for sharing.
I enjoy watching your videos your work is so beautiful and I am glad you are back. I would like if you can to give me the name of the pattern with the stitching lady that you want to start in the winter, I just fall in love with that pattern I really want to buy it. Thank you so much.
Thank you for watching. Sorry HAED do not have this chart any longer, you can possibly purchaswe the print and maybe get the pattern charted yourself. Delphin Enroljas is the designer.
@@TheStitchyWitch thank you 😊
Wait...how do you mark off a page without having to select a symbol?
On PK make sure no symbol is highlighted. Press screen "select all unfinished stitches on page". Choose that option and you will mark off the entire page.
@@TheStitchyWitch omg, thank you!! ❤
Is it 24 count? Work -❤❤
