    Your job will have to show some leniency in working with your daughter at home schooling!! You are not by yourself in this predicament. Everything will work out. 👏👏 Your range of WIPS is AMAZING, and makes for such a GREAT video!! Stay safe and calm! If you need someone to talk to I am a retired school teacher!! HAPPY STITCHING TODAY AND EVERYDAY IN 2020!!

      Aww thank you! It looks like she will be starting in person full time but who knows that could change in a week or be okay for the year. Difficult as a working parent because I don’t have a choice really on what I want to do. Thank you for your sweet words and encouragement!

    you really got me wanting to buy more floss from Dying to cross stitch..lol.. you are truly an enabler. your projects are beautiful. I'm glad to have caught your floss tube.. I'll have to watch your other floss tube videos. Loving it all!!!

    • @SmallTownStitches
      @SmallTownStitches  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Welcome!!!!! Hahaha sorry :) I love that they have redyes now though :)

    New subscriber! Great video!! Do you have the Pandemic pattern by LDS!! I was able to grab it when it was free. Now I am trying to figure out what floss to use.

    • @SmallTownStitches
      @SmallTownStitches  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I do!!!!!! I’m going to coffee dye some fabric and I just ordered my floss for it!

    I’m so jealous of your VM fabric subscription!!! I think it will be exactly what you wanted - beautiful neutrals but nothing “crazy” - nice subtle mottling! Also I have those same sterilite snaps from Target - they’re perfect for English paper piecing!

    Hi 👋🏾,
    I’m new to your channel and I’m loving your WIPS! 😀
    You’re working on so many pieces I’m amazed that you remember all the details of each one.
    I’m pretty new to cross stitching and haven’t tried anything like ink circles or HAED stuff yet but I’d love to at some point.
    I do show what I work on over on my channel. I’m a multi crafter so I knit, crochet, stitch and pretty much anything else that takes my fancy. Lorraine x

    • @SmallTownStitches
      @SmallTownStitches  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      That’s so awesome! I would love to learn to knit! I can’t work on just one project. I love bigger pieces usually for the most part lol

  • @RebuildingRosie
    @RebuildingRosie 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    17,000 stitches? Your progress is amazing. I love watching your full coverage pieces come together. I might need another one in my life soon. I adore your Kiss me under the Moon piece. I would have never guessed how great it would look on light colored fabric. I will say the Sing a Sampler is a fairly quick stitch, it would depend on if you can stand to stitch it twice. I would love a storage video! Haha I love that you needed the Fort Night Fabric Club. Little Dove High Street is on my Wish List.

    • @SmallTownStitches
      @SmallTownStitches  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Right I love the kiss me under the moon! Love it! I’m telling you pattern keeper makes is so easy to fall in love with full coverage! And you’re welcome for backing out of Fortnight fabrics lmao! Little Dove is only $6 😜

  • @cherylbreugger6624

    Just happened upon your video for the first time. Your project for your husband is the most impressive work I have seen in the entire time I have watched floss tube, ( about six months) . Your work is lovely and you are very talented. I will go back and watch your past videos today. You are impressive to say the least. Thank you for sharing.

    • @SmallTownStitches
      @SmallTownStitches  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      This completely shocked me and made me feel good at the same time. Thank you so much! I am loving how it’s turning out!!!!

  • @michelel965
    @michelel965 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Not sure what hours you have to work each day, but homeschooling a Kindergarten age child should only take an hour a day plus activity time such as outside play and artwork. Praying you find a happy solution for your family. Wonderful stitching!!

  • @brettperkins4643
    @brettperkins4643 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I am working on the Hometown Hero Fireman for my brother. I am working down instead of across and I am almost 2/3 of the way done with the page below the hat. Yours is looking great.

  • @StitchinMommy
    @StitchinMommy 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I love the large chunks of progress you get on each project every month. You’re definitely dialed in to a good amount of projects. I would love to be able to get to each of my pieces more often, but I just have too many. My startitis has its downsides. 😂

    • @SmallTownStitches
      @SmallTownStitches  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      LOL!!! I’m amazed every week how many you are able to touch even with so many full coverages!!!!!

    • @StitchinMommy
      @StitchinMommy 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Small Town Stitches I’m still watching your video (lots of interruptions over here!), but have you seen Crafting Gaming Jamie here on Flosstube? She just finished Templar Prophecy at the end of July on a dark burgundy fabric with cream thread. Reminded me of your recent fabric haul - it looked great!

    • @StitchinMommy
      @StitchinMommy 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      I guess her channel is actually Crafty Gaming Jamie. 😊

    • @SmallTownStitches
      @SmallTownStitches  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      No I haven’t. I need to go now! I’m honored you found my channel! I’ve been watching yours forever! :)

    • @SmallTownStitches

      hilary Rasmussen that is so awesome. I was an EMT for 11 years and my husband was a firefighter Paramedic! I can’t wait to hear how yours is coming along!!!!!

  • @pamlacey136
    @pamlacey136 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I am new to your channel but it was fun seeing all of your stash; love seeing it. I have experienced anxiety at different times in my life. I found that trying to simplify my life really helped; I eliminated “things” that really weren’t necessary and things I didn’t enjoy. I hope your work goes well. Happy stitching..................

    • @SmallTownStitches
      @SmallTownStitches  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Mine seems to be situations. I know what triggering it a lot of times but I can’t stop it. And when people say you need to try to calm down they don’t really understand I’m trying the best I can it’s just different. Thank you for checking my channel out and welcome!

    • @pamlacey136
      @pamlacey136 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@SmallTownStitches I understand as it just comes on you and I always felt like I just had to get away from it but it stays with you lots of the time. I am retired so I don't have the stresses I did that were associated with work. That is a hard one to handle because so many different kinds of people are usually involved; they don't understand unless they have experienced it. Are you able to limit those situations or get rid of them all together? Sometimes life is just so hard but try to be good to yourself as much as you can. I wish I had an easy answer to anxiety but I don't. That you recognize what is triggering it is a good thing.

    @mrsmiggins6435 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Hi Leanne. I found you through the lady who is 911(sorry can't remember). You say your husband is only doing one day a week, can he not help out? I can see a lot of myself in you. I find it amazing how many stitches you get done in a month!!!!! Especially as you've got two children, one of which is under 5 yes old. Your a super woman😀. I loved seeing your projects, I was actually stitching on Linen and Threads 2020 mystery chart while I watched your video..lol. Hope your new manager works out okay. Have a good month, hoping you aren't sew stressed. Take care🤗

    • @SmallTownStitches
      @SmallTownStitches  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      His work schedule varies, he also volunteers a lot with our church and does motorcycle work too. He’s a busy guy that I don’t give enough credit to. I’m glad you could relate to me and I love that you were stitching on the 2020 sampler!!!!!!!! So glad you found me through Stacy! Love her channel too!

    • @mrsmiggins6435
      @mrsmiggins6435 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Sorry to be sew harsh on hubby, but on your video it sounded as though he didn't do a lot. He's a very busy man by the sounds of it. Take care🤗

  • @loriarnold4855

    • @SmallTownStitches

      Now to find out what... hmmm... I love your face!!!

  • @JennyFleming
    @JennyFleming 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I can understand why you’ve got so much anxiety. All of the stress around kids and school is OVERWHELMING. And I think having an entering Kindergartner would be the most worrisome. I have a 5th grader, 2nd grader, and a Pre-K student. But at the same time, I think the kids will adapt and are just happy to have any kind of socialization, no matter what it looks like. Could be in person from 6 feet away, or could be on Zoom with all their new classmates. She’s going to love Kindergarten.
    JULIE IS A LONG DOG SUPER HERO BY GETTING YOU THOSE THREADS!! And I love your Linens & Threads Sal. I had not heard about that HAED drama... geez Louise. I’m actually stitching DBCS in DMC 08. Mine look brown.

    • @SmallTownStitches
      @SmallTownStitches  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Ugh thank you. I hope she thrives. I actually contacted the school to see if they could put her in the same room with another kid she knows to help ease some of the anxiety and they told me they already have them in the same room together. So hopefully that helps. I think she will do great eventually we just have to get there because unfortunately I can’t stay home. Julie is amazing. I was so excited when she told me that she found some! I haven’t been able to find it anywhere! I am enjoying the Linen and Threads Sal especially that it’s free! I think the 08/09 colors are beautiful. Something about how they differ color wise was distorting some images though.

    I love all of your WIPS - it sounds like you got a lot done in July. Good for you.
    I love Hand Dyed Threads but due to me washing my Stitched Finish Pieces I do not use nothing that is overdyed.
    Happy Stitching ❤️

    • @SmallTownStitches
      @SmallTownStitches  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Ahh yah that would be hard. I don’t wash my finished pieces so I use a lot of overdyed fabric and floss!
      Happy stitching!
