@@helend.flosstube Meee toooo! No way that little terror is having access to my happy place. I keep floss in a bag while I’m stitching and he’s stolen that twice. Chewed a book corner and stolen a bookmark. He’s entertaining that’s for sure😅
Ah ha! The bobbin parking needle minders! Now I’m awake!!! 😂Stephanie The New England Stitcher was selling them there. I don’t know if she has an Etsy shop but I would drop her an email. You can find her on floss tube. She is sooooo talented! She makes lots of different things.❤
Happy Monday pal! I’m so glad you like my strawberry basket 🍓😊 The strawberries are so fun to make! I’d be happy to have a strawberry making session with you some time 😆 You’ll need your sewing machine for it! Also…I signed up for Library Stitchers and was lucky to get in and already paid 🥳 Now we just have to wait 8 months 😩 Happy stitching! 🤗🤗🥰
Hello, always enjoy your floss tubes. Can you send a picture of your big Christmas Tree. I have that pattern. Unfortunately, I’m not as organized as you. I have been wanting to work on it. Actually, with Collards, too. Much appreciated.
@@deidremiller-shaut8914 😂I’m organized?! You’re so nice! Can’t send pictures in here but I can show next time or you can email me❤️TheNorthwoodsStitcher@gmail.com
@@kckoehler1766 That next morning was rough. He got knocked for a loop! It was horrible to see him sleep so much! No other symptoms just felt logey. We made sure he was hydrating and he was fine that evening. So hard to see something that small feeling off.
Sarah, you are such a delight to watch! Thank you for sharing your ideas, good finds & adventures with us. I'm just about finished with Strawberry Faire & I love your idea of using beads! Might have to borrow it! Does New England Stitcher have a shop on Etsy or only vend at retreats? Intrigued with the bobbin minders. HE fun with kitty & stitch happy!
@@patriciacohn2366 I did search for a shop but didn’t see one. Best to contact her directly. I know she’s a teacher and has been very busy with the school year. Maybe with enough inquiries…😏
Hey Sarah! Happy to see your beautiful, smiling face! You got so many goodies! Your kitty is so cute, hopefully he will calm down! Beautiful stitching, love the finished deer!
@@Griffinand3 It was a fun time! That’s 3 retreats this year and I feel that’s all for me. Time to stitch and just meet up at stitch groups at local meetups. Stuart is most active in the morning and plays with the dog now🥹Tag and hide n seek. It’s so nice to see our dog so happy. She’s so gentle ❤️
Your dragon may be from 2 x 2 stitchart on etsy and the other piece is from Diane Arthur. I always enjoy your videos. Hope Stuart does well with his vaccine.
@@emarten1 I have not selected my fabric but I’m thinking a white Lugana. I’m still gathering the threads then I’ll concentrate on a fabric. Can’t wait to do this!!! January 2025 is perfect timing after holiday stress and a long cold January 😃Hope you do it too!
Also...(sorry) Several years ago I stitched the Jeweled Pear. When I finished it I wasn't really sure what I was going to do with it, but I couldn't resist it at the time I bought it. Some time later a high school friend contacted our circle of friends to tell us she'd been diagnosed with cancer and was undergoing treatments. I went to visit her and took her the pear, hoping it would cheer her hanging in her window on her bad days. The connection? She just happened to grow up on a pear farm. I guess there was a reason I chose to do the pear. Unfortunately she isn't with us anymore, but I sure think of her often.
Your deer is beautiful. Love the frame. I stitched the Christmas tree a few years ago and framed it in a dark red frame. Yours is looking good. How cute is your kitten!
@@dianeperkins7229 Oooo! Dark red frame sounds perfect! Thanks for the idea🥰Stuart is such fun! Abby and Stuart have started playing tag and chase me this week. Scary to watch but he’s fast and she’s gentle ❤️🤗
Very enjoyable. In the past twelve years that my cat has been in my life. There isn't a cross stitch project that doesn't have her hair stitched in it. Impossible to avoid it. Love the pet pics
Great video. Who’s counting Wips right 😂! I love the winter serenity. It’s beautiful loved the finish. That frame was waiting for you!!! The Santa with presents ornament I finished 1/21/23. That full coverage seem to last forever… I did it while I was with mama Pearl in hOSPICE she was buried the day I finished it. I love the hello Summer pattern you got. I will have to do this one for 2 reasons. My ancestor was a light house keeper (as you already know 😂) and my beautiful daughter’s Name is Summer. 😊 The stitcher Passion is her pattern collection! That’s so me. I will not ever finish all my patterns. 😊
@@sunnykat2762 There’s no way I can actually count WIPS. Unless I define them as those with actual stitches? Still I kit and make piles! 🤪 Sad memory tied with your little Santa stitch. 😔Hope you can place happy thoughts with it. Finishing up Return of The Whales this week and although I can’t use a sewing machine I’m having fantasies of turning it into a pillow. May have to sit in a pile for awhile as I hone my skills.🤓 I do hope to make a dent in my collection. The kitten’s cooperation and training will depend on that😏
@@Sarahthenorthwoodsstitcher I have good memories of mama Pearl to know I was there with her to the very end as she crossed over. She thanked my sister and I for allowing her to be our mama(She was my stepmother from the age of 7). We thanked her for being our mama and loving us. We let her know that we loved 🥰 her. So that’s why it will be a special ornament to me. 😂 I am guilty of making a big tote with fancy ladies kitted from some with just beads and patterns, to speciality floss and fabric
41:24 It's always a joy to see you again and to hear all of the excitement in your voice. So nice of you to share everything from retreat, the dump house, and other places. That deer piece is absolutely gorgeous, so is the Christmas tree.
A little kitten sure adds another level of activity to a household. Eventually he will settle down some and you can have a relaxing time stitching instead of ‘stitching like a fiend’! Winter Serenity is a very lovely project, great job! Thanks for sharing the wonderful table gifts from the retreat, I got some good ideas. Stitchy people are so generous. Thanks for sharing all the stuff!
@@sandyevenson-hagen370 Thank you! He certainly keeps us on our toes! Growing so fast we can see it! Eating us out of house and home. Up at camp the dog and kitten are playing tag and we watch holding our breath but our 65 lb dog is gentle 🥹Fast friends. I’m stitching more❤️
Stuart would have a field day in your craft room!! Fantastic recap of the retreat. I'm ready to go back and do it again!
@@helend.flosstube Meee toooo! No way that little terror is having access to my happy place. I keep floss in a bag while I’m stitching and he’s stolen that twice. Chewed a book corner and stolen a bookmark. He’s entertaining that’s for sure😅
I'll sign it when I come to teach you about the machine!! Pick a day...
The small motifs would look great as fobs hanging off the corner of the pillow wit a twisted cord.
Where can we order that bobbin needle minder? It's genius!
@@MrsChicken823 Bobbin needle minder? I have to watch this again. Don’t remember 😳

Hi Sarah. The stitcher piece from 2016 is a Diane Arthurs. I’m excited to say that I got in to Library Stitchers Retreat! Can’t wait!

@@sandraskonieczny746 More antics, more blood loss 🫤Ahhh, kittenhood
I think your dragon is by Fire Wing Designs. I did the same design for a family member a few years ago. It was a fun stitch! 🪡👠
I’ll look that up, would love to have info on the back, thank you!
Love your new video! I'm thinking of joining in the Cardinal Point adventure! It looks lovely and I've never done a long dog before.
@@katgriffin52 It’s going to be amazing! You have a few months to consider 😃
I love the deer stitch, and will have to see if I have that magazine. Kitty is cute, cute, cute!
@@kathyadams5294 I found it to be a fussy stitch but well worth it❤️

Life is not complete unless someone’s hair is involved. I have to keep tweezers nearby😂
Hope he’s back to his happy kitten self today.
