I love seeing all of your beautiful projects. Your stitched and framed pieces is beautiful, congratulations. Thank you for sharing your time with us. Love and blessings xx
Very nice. Everything. You are amazing. I esp like the deal on the skeins of Gentle Arts. Love a deal on floss & yes, to pull from your stash is the best. Have a wonderful rest of July stitching stitching stitching.
🎉🎉 Great job on all your projects. They look wonderful.
Thank you!
🎉🎉🎉🎉 LOVE YOU and good golly that Vanity Sampler looks amazing
Would you be willing to do a video on your setup and supplies? Maybe a stitch-with-me? I'd LOVE to see your technique!
I would love to do that! As soon as I can figure out the filming logistics that don't make the camera move too much I will! It's hard to get close enough to my project without constantly hitting it lol!
@@TheMuseumStitcher I know exactly the pain. I’m saving up to buy one of those tripods that clip to the edge of a desk. Then I’ve got to Sherlock Holmes my way to figuring out what to attach it to in order to get a clear shot of my work. 😂
Thank you so much for considering it! I’ll look forward to the potential of seeing it! 🩷 Happy stitching!!
Girl, you are moving right along! Great job! 🎉 I'm working on Abalonia's Apple Tree by The Artsy Housewife.
🎉🥳 what great progress on all your very large projects! Congratulations! I’ll be at Midsummer hope to visit your virtual room. 😊
🎉 thanks for the video
Your vanity sampler linen is gorgeous. I can't wait to get mine back out! 🎉
🎉 I just found you and after 2 or 3 minutes I hit the subscribe and notifications buttons! Look forward to the next one!
Aww thank you!!
🎉 great video!
🎉Great projects!
Great vid!!! 🎉
🎊 Happy July!
🎉 loved seeing your progress and finishes. Your Vanity Sampler is looking amazing. I would love to hear more about how you’re using Notion, especially how you’re planning to catalog your threads.
Thank you! I'm thinking about doing a Notion tour at some point, but I haven't decided yet! As far as how I'm doing my threads, I'm using the floss storage included in the Nati template! I just hadn't used it before now!
@@TheMuseumStitcher oooh, great to know. I will check out the template but would definitely love a Notion tour at some point!
🎉Love your videos
🥳🎉 Love seeing all of your beautiful progress!! Going for a finish on Baltimore Saltbox by Brenda Gervais 😊 Happy Stitching ❤!!!
Stitching on seasonal stuff right now but switching it up constantly lately. See you @ midsummer!
🥳 I'm working on White Winter Moth and Seasons of the Heart - Spring!
🎉 its July. Love all your progress- I need some stitchy friends! Your gang of 4 sounds amazing. I'm working on Marigold Basket from Marcie Peschong. My garden is blooming tons of marigolds right now.
🎉hello. I am working in a gift stitch. From FQS. Love your finishes!
🌞🌞🌞 I will be at the Midsummer Stitchy event!
Hi, Brijin! My apologies for being so far behind in my viewing, but here I am. ☺️ You should be so proud of all the progress you’ve made since your last visit, especially on your bigger projects like the Vanity Sampler and Song of the Nightingale! And the stitching is so beautiful. Not only that, but all your numbers are doing really well as far as your low-start stats. You go, girl! 😊
Thanks for the encouraging words about lacing, and what tutorial you watched…I will check it out for sure. Your Pink Pony piece is precious, and I look forward to hearing about/seeing how your homemade cording came out. Fantastic haul, by the way…my favorites were the half price Gentle Arts flosses and the Grandpa’s Shop Rag fabric.
I’m currently working on Turkey Day by Cottage Garden Samplings…I’ve been monogamously stitching on 4 different projects for the last several weeks, finishing one at a time, before I start a new project (Dark Golden Delicious by the Artsy Housewife) and this my final piece to complete! And I’m almost done! Yay! 🥳🎉 Until next time, happy stitching! 💙
Meline
Always look forward to your comments Meline! Thank you and happy stitching!
🎉 im working on a few fall mill hills + putting in a few stitches on my mirabilias! and I just bought "dashing through the snow" from shepherd's bush for christmas in july :p
🎉Love all your projects! Thank you for sharing. I'm working on Oh, deer, by Satsuma Street and A Witch Lives Here by Durene Jones, with a skin and hair conversion, so the witch will look like me 😅
Still have to get my July stitches in on Song of the Nightingale but yours is looking SO spectacular. I really love having an accountability partner for this one and I am so excited to have it finished by the end of the year!
I'm working on my July section right now, I'm seriously so excited to get it done! We need to take pics of our finished pieces together at StitchNorth next year!!
🎉🥳🎉 Loved seeing all of your work! I am working on the 12 days of Christmas stockings (market release from Annie Beez Folk Art) for Christmas in July - I have finished days 1 and 2 and am almost done with 3. I am also working on making project bags!! Happy stitching!! ~Ann
I love your mathematical intro and the graphs of all the months ❤ I am trying to count all my stitches this year and it really brings so much extra dopamine just adding numbers every evening. Though I m stitching much less than you, only about 12k in a good month 😂
Bingo didn’t work for me either, but in another group I found smth like a game where they give you 10 prompts each month and you stitch 500-1000 on corresponding projects or double on anything else you want. I was keeping up with it and it really pushes me to choose some older projects that I haven’t even thought about
Can’t wait to see your end of the year parade, I bet it will be impressive ❤
Oh that's a fun system! I like that you can still work on stuff that isn't the prompt, but you gotta work more😂 I may need to tell my friend Marjorie about that, I think she'd love it
🎉 Just caught up with your updates. Amazing work and it sounds like you have found a system that works well for you. You have some wonderful projects, I was busy making a list of my favorites! It would be wonderful if you could do a video tutorial for you stitching bags but, I understand that's asking a lot! I particularly like the size and extra fabric piece on the front on the bottom of the vinyl window.🙂 Maybe I'll try to figure measurements out myself since I know the technical parts of the bags. Keep up the inspiring work!!!
🎉🥳 awesome progress on ur wips! Bouncing back n forth btwn a prairie schooler for jolly july and trying to finish up my design from the 🍓 sal! I may finally have a finish coming up! Its been a year full of starts for me lolol
Have fun at midsummer stitch!! 🐈⬛🪡❤️
🎉🎉 loved the video and all of your projects. I have altered how I do wipgo, if I complete a wipgo square, I cross it off, whether it's been called or not. That way I can complete my goals, in a way that works for me.
That's a great idea! I love how everyone modifies it to fit their needs!
🎉 I am working on forest home by blue flower. I have no plans 😂, I just stitch on whatever I feel like, although I have kept up on log cabin christmas so far.
🎉 working on a Star Wars chart for my son.
🎉My first time watching you! Loved seeing your WIPS. My current project as I watch you is knitting a Garden Cardigan sleeve . But in my current WIPS I'm working on is Little Sheep Virtues Love, and Happy Heart from SubRosa
Welcome and thank you!
🎉🎉🎉. I’m coming to the midsummer stitch and will def come find your table! Currently working on And God Saw by Teresa Kogut, American Welcome by Plum Street and Peacock Pin Cushion by Cottage Garden. I have other wips but those are in my rotation right now.
🎉 I am working on the deadly aquarium by Lola crow!
I love your projects and your flosstube. Im thinking of starting a flosstube but im very nevous about it
You should totally do it! I re-recorded my first video like 5 times before I finally posted it, but it's been the best decision!
I am SOOO impressed with the straight lines in your finish on Move Forward. That one line border is SO daunting! GREAT job! 🥳
Thank you!! It took some effort, but I'm glad it came out mostly straight!
🎉 I'm a knitter, cross stitch is my backup hobby, so I'm working on a little dmc kit called "Carmen." I saw an amazing artist a few months ago who was using thread to make hair for embroidery portraits and when I saw this "Carmen" kit I thought it would be perfect to try and replicate that look.
Backup hobbies are the best! I've got a few of those, knitting is one of mine!
That's an amazing fiber deal you got, wow! Also it was super-fun seeing you and the Girlies at Midsummer Stitch 🎉
I’m currently working on a Christmas ornament 🎉
🎉🎉🎉. Thank you for sharing your mid year WIP parade. It was fun to watch
🎉fabulous finish! Love the red sampler! Thank you for sharing! Happy Stitching!
Love that you're going back and finishing your older WIPs! 🎉
I was wondering if Cam’s conversion is available to us? It’s so beautiful and I love the colors! So amazing how much you are able to accomplish! I love all that you are working on and am feeling a bit enabled about Liz Matthew’s beautiful sampler (it’s a good thing)! Thanks so much for sharing your creative self with us all. Very inspiring! Working on Pollinators by The Blue Flower, Fish and Ships by Long Dog, and trying to finish my Flag Flock by Plum Street before the end of the month! Happy Stitching!🥳
I believe her conversion is listed on her Instagram, which is CamtheStitcher!
🎉 I am, at this very moment working on a stocking for my daughter. I had made both my kids stockings when they were little, but after 24 years hers has worn out. She chose a new pattern for her "adult" stocking and I've been working on it off and on since last October. If I stitched on it monogamously, I'd have it done by next month, but I get bored with one project. My goal is to have it fully finished for Christmas this year. I love all your wips. Great job on your FFOs!
I'm the same way, after about a week of working on something consistently I'm ready to work on something else!
🎉🎉🎉🎉 woohoo! Lovely catch up with you. And I TOTALLY loved all the numbers and stats. 🩷
Wow! You have made so much progress on your WIPs this year! Also, lovely finish for Move Forward in Love. 🥳🎉
🎉🎉Working on MFE No Time Like the Present. Also Night Cafe by HAED. I did finish Hedgehog and Hyacinth by the Blue Flower since small finishes are good for the soul
Totally agree about small finishes! I've got a couple projects close to done that I'm saving for when I need a fast finish!
Your finishes are really nice. Especially love the MFE laced piece! Look forward to much more of your beautiful projects. Enjoy the summer.🎉
Thank you for another cute video! I've been in a stitchy slump as I've been learning to crochet. I keep telling myself I will make it up this winter! 🎉
🎉🍾 currently working on 2nd day of Christmas Tree by Hello from Liz Matthews, plan is to have it finished in 2days then work on A Quaker Christmas by Bygone Stitches and get it closer to a finish by Christmas this year
🎉 congrats on all your finishes! Sounds like you’re having a great time stitching this year. Hope to see you at Midsummer Stitch!
🎉 Working on 4 projects, hazel’s wardrobe, mini emerald, dragon library and fine tea coffee foods. Your projects are beautiful!!
🎉. Love all the projects you’re working on.
🎉 what a great deal you got. Definitely envious of the deals available in the US over what we have in the UK. Happy stitching
🎉🎉🎉I too am working on a stocking for our daughter. My 4th Shepherd’s Bush stocking. Shout out to Vonna for the very best finishing ever! Thx for the video. You sure get tons done!
🎉 i love notion too. My goals are to have fun stitching everyday 🎉🎉 thanks for sharing your lovely projects!!
I also use the notion from nati I love how organized it is! Can’t wait to see everyone at midsummer stitch 😁
🥳
🎉 Your modern folk embroidery ffo is perfect!
🥳Great video and goal achievement! Working on too many things to count, but having fun.
Definitely going for Christmas in July stitching. Congratulations on your WIP progress!!🥳🥳
i never do the emojis🥳 but im always hereeeeeeeeeeeeee
I've signed up for the Midsummer Stitch event, and I'm so excited!! I definitely plan on hanging out at your table! 🎉🎉🎉
Yay! It's gonna be so fun!
🎉 I am working on Autumn Pin Drum by Kathy Barrick. Love your content.
Thank you!
Brijin , you are all into the numbers, and I can see why in some regards. I just hope that you don’t get too reliant on those numbers. This is, after all, your hobby and I love to see the enthusiasm you and “the girlies” show about your stitches. It is that enthusiasm that brought me back to stitching after a long time away. 😊 That being said, July for me is a knitting month - two sock KALs and a shawl MKAL. I am not sure what I will do for the Olympics, but I think it will be something stitchy or maybe some of each. You are making great progress on your stitches and they look beautiful! 😍
Oh my goodness. I would buy one of those moon project bags. That is gorgeous! 😍
Thank you!
Party 🎈 party 🎉on! Great video!
Your vanity sampler is beautiful. I am trying to work on my major project and want to get it done. I have a monopoly board that my MIL started years ago for my husband. I would like to get it done by his birthday next April. I called today monopoly Monday. You are right about a stitch Buddy. I need to find one.
Monopoly Monday is such a fun way to make progress!
🎉🎉
🎉2024 please slow down! Great video, always enjoy. 🪡🧵☮️🌻

Love hoe your Modern Folk Embroidery piece turned out! 🎉
🎉🥳

🥳🥳🥳

Great video. I always enjoy watching your progress. May I ask, what pattern is the framed Quaker pattern behind you? I really want to stitch it. 😊
It's Love Gains by Modern Folk Embroidery!
What is the pink Quaker piece that is finished behind your left shoulder?
Do you have the name of the shop in Kentucky, that is going out of business?
I’m working on Pink House Sampler by Plum Street Sampler
It's Love Gains by Modern Folk Embroidery! Unfortunately I don't remember the name of the shop, so sorry!
May I ask where you got the zippers for your project bags?
They're from ZipIt on Etsy I believe!
Great job on your WIPS. You said that you use a hoop & not qsnaps but I never see hoop marks on your WIPS. I stopped using hoops because of that How do you not get marks?
I use Morgan hoops specifically, I'm not sure if that makes a difference, but it's what I use! I find that with those when I pull the project off the hoop there's a small indent, but after I let it relax overnight and then iron it with steam (sometimes a little spray of water on the hoop mark if I left it on for a while), they come right out! I also do try not to leave my hoop on my project for more than 3 days at a time, usually I try to take it off overnight and I never have any issues! The only hoops I've had marks not come out with are the Nurge hoops, so I don't use those anymore!
@@TheMuseumStitcher funny you say that about nurge hoops I just finished a project that I started with a nurge but did the majority of it in hand & the hoop marks are still there 😕 hoping they come out when I spray & iron.
Can you give me the link pf the zipper etsy shop? I'm making a sensory board for my grandson and need som hefty zippers!
They're from ZipIt on Etsy I believe! I don't have the link handy, but they should be pretty easy to find!
What app did you mention that you use to count your stitches? Thanks!
It's called Markup R-XP!
The Vanity Sampler is awesome! I'm trying to figure out what works for me as well, but I feel like it changes every month, hahaha! Have a great day! 🎉
