Interesting tidbit for you. The Herrschners catalog that arrived in today's mail has a 2000 piece jigsaw puzzle that combines all of your montage pieces in one puzzle! Took me a minute to verify that it was those pieces. Fun!
Hi Sarah. I’m a fan and watch your videos every week 😊 You are so talented. I love my full cover pieces but want to do more in half stitches 1 over 1. I bought some 40 ct Verdal to try it out. But it’s tiny bitty 😅 So for my first try, I’ve started on 32 ct. 1 over 1. I have a question - how do you start and end your threads? I find it difficult to secure the thread on such a small count and not accidentally “bury” the thread into the fabric. Hope you know what I mean 😊 I work on a frame two handed so prefer not to turn my work over. Anyway, love your channel 🥰
I start and end my threads just by running the needle under the stitches on the back of the piece, which granted can be a bit tricky when stitching on the especially tiny counts. I like to use a beading needle to stitch that small, and that helps with securing the threads, too. Since I stitch in-hand, it doesn't bother me to flip the fabric over, but I have seen other frame stitchers do things like waste knots that could work for you - that would allow you to not have to turn the fabric over and you could secure thread without accidentally piercing the fabric.
I just watched a new flosstuber - The 50 Needle Stitcher - and she does full coverage. 1 stitch at a time, but very fast in a way I’ve never seen, this might help you speed up. Basically she has all her threads on needles. She has a few flossetube and I believe 1 ‘stitch with me’ where she shows how she stitches. Happy Stitching!
I have seen some people stitch with several needles pre-threaded, and yes that would make this method quite a bit faster! However, that method wouldn't work for me since I stitch in-hand. It would work for someone who has things set up in a frame and stand that they can leave out.
Hi Sarah I love seeing your WIP's. They are all looking good. I have finished two of the 3 months to a finish and almost will have the third one done this week and then I will be half way through the finishes and I really enjoy working on them. It always feel great you have accomplished a finish and to move on to your next project. Love seeing Smokey. In the meantime Happy Stitching and be safe and kind. God bless. Pat
No matter how little or much you show, it is interesting and enjoyable to see, and to hear your plans and how you think about your stitching!

Very fun!
When I was growing up, we had a cat who would hide under the couch, and when someone sat down, our cat would swipe at their feet ❤

@@StitchinMommy Thank you for the great tips. I'll try it out 🥰
Lovely projects as usual. Like your idea for 2025 Wipgo. I might try that too as I want to get some finishes.
Hi Sarah
Love your WIPS - You are making beautiful Progress on them.
Take Care & Happy Stitching

The Temperature Turtles would make a great quilt! Hmmm.....??? Now I am thinking!
That would be so cool to see it in a quilt form
You still got a lot done. All I did was 10stitches on a sunflower that I started last week.
Happy Stitching to you, Sarah!❤
I look forward to seeing your new temperature chart! Have a great week!
I was hoping Smokey would jump up onto the bed when you spoke to her. 🙂. Then she did.😀
Nice stitching!
Enjoy the stitching you can fit in this week 🪡🧵🥰
Lovely video Sarah. Have a good week. Happy Stitching.❤❤
