Enjoyed your wips. When you said the sign in deadly aquarium was no joke at 400 stitches just after showing your world map 😂😂. Looking forward to seeing much more it.
I will be joining your Chatelaine SAL- butterfly lace mandala. I don’t know how long it will take me to kit it up. It’s a lot of floss, specialty threads, beads and bling. Which is why I love it
@@annelynch600 no rush on kitting it up. I’m slowly kitting it up myself. It’ll not be 100% kitted up by the time January gets here. I just plan to have the floss that I need for the section I’ll be starting in.
Like always like watching your progress. love the fabric of Deadly Aquarium, your conversation is coming out good. Also like the colors of Good Companion. 😊 I have a Chatelaine but always stop myself to start it lol
@@redflossstitcher2406 Thanks got the comment. I’m happy that people are liking the conversions because it can be a bit scary when you don’t know how it’s all gonna turn out. Which Chatelaine do you possess? This may be your sign to start it in the new year 😂
Congratulations on having 1000 subscribers. Great projects. I have a few chatelaine charts that ive been thinking of starting. I may not have all the items to start but may start with what little I have and buy as I go. Then I can start with everyone together. Xx
Just found your channel and I so enjoyed your video today- I’m a new subscriber… so many beautiful cross stitch projects you’re working on. I love the hardanger piece you’re planning to start. I just love hardanger and my favorite designer, whose pieces, most of them anyways, have multiple specialty stitches and sections of hardanger, is Victoria Sampler. She also has many youtube videos on instructions of multiple specialty stitches. Also, one other flosstuber, who no longer posts, is Stitching with a Smile. She has excellent videos primarily on hardanger… starting with the kloster blocks, the cutting and the different filling stitches. I think if you watch these two ladies’ videos, and do a little practice work, you’ll be an old pro on hardanger in no time. Looking forward to your next video.
Congrats on your 1k subs!! Oh, I like your lighthouse conversion more than the original! It looks amazing in red 🥰 I'm not expecting to start another Châtelaine soon, but I have one finished and two in progress, so I can maybe be part of that SAL 😋 Happy stitching!
@@FruStitches join in with a new Chatelaine or one that is in progress. I do admire that you have three! If you ever want to create the red version for Comfort Lighthouse, just let me know and I’ll be happy to share the conversion.
@@TheCrossStitchGuy Thank you! The lighthouse is one of those projects that you love to see, but don’t feel like stitching (I don’t know if I explained myself well 😆). I've seen some in blue and when you showed yours my brain went "boom!". Amazing 🥰
Congratulations on 1000 subs!!! 🎉 I'm so excited to see your Lighthouse conversion progress - it looks amazing so far! Same with the Aquarium. You're so good at color conversion. 😊
🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳 congrats on the 1k!!!! How exciting!!!! 7:50 you didn’t do the 11 stitches 😐😂 10:20 single stitch start for the win 🤣 Mannnn….three months? I better get rocking on getting the stuffs 😂 29:38 aw aren’t you the bestest!! ❤
@@jennthecaffeinatedcrafter5679 you were right about less than 50 stitches. I never got to it 😭 Maybe all my new starts going forward should be single stitches? 😂
The algorithm randomly gave me your video, probably because i recently discovered sals. On hardanger remember that you will be cutting at some point. Make sure to pay attention to the instruction books where it explains how to place the kloster blocks in relation to the weave of the fabric. And dont carry the thread on the back over where you will cut. It will get in the way and may be visible.
@@BethRobinson-e9t thanks for the advice. I didn’t even think about potentially cutting some threads on accident. Thank you, for putting this on my radar.
Yoshi, Thank you for the musical suggestions. I have been a huge musical fan since I was a kid thanks to my dad, and have not kept up with more current musicals for various reasons. I am a season ticket holder to a small music theater and get to see some newer shows but they have been doing more old ones lately. I no longer work in Boston, so I don't tend to go in town to see musicals so I am limited in what I see. I was not familiar with Dear Mr. Hansen or Come From Away and have now looked into them so am excited to find them somewhere. THANK YOU. As for the dirty hands, I get it. During the summer my stitching drops way off due to I am a gardener and my hands get dirty. Totally get it. Good luck with the Hardanger. I have a Victoria Sampler with some in it, so maybe that will motivate me to tackle it..... Your suggestion of a practice piece made me laugh because I don't know why I never thought of that.....Good thinking. That Victoria Sampler might finally get started some day. Have fun stitching. See you on your next video. Thanks again for the musical suggestions. I totally agree about the Sloppy stitching sisters. They are so funny.. LOVE THEM.
@@conniecrossan4422 I got into musicals around 2019. There are so many I would love to see, but I am limited with what comes into town. I wish London or New York were closer since they have so many shows going on at once. I’ve seen the Victoria Sampler and it looks pretty! Definitely practice before tackling the piece.
Ooooh your lighthouse conversion looks great. Congrats on 1000!! I have Chatalaine’s Poison Garden (the pattern) but haven’t kitted it up yet, perhaps it’s time!
@@KT-sq2ml Indian Peacock has been receiving some love since this video. It’s honestly not so intimidating since a good section is tent stitch (the sky). Have you started on Comfort Lighthouse? If not you’ll enjoy it since it’s so quick to complete the motifs. I try to complete one a day unless it’s a huge one like the house.
I am so excited to find someone working on the Wonderful World Map AND Once upon a Fairytale! I love them both and plan to start Map soon. Happy to subscribe!
It's nice to know of someone else who will be tackling the map! Whenever you receive your kit just verify that the fabric is the correct size. They messed up on mine and so they sent me another one.
I agree with you on dirty hands and stitching. I always wash my hands before I start and never sew if I am doing any decorating or handy work, or at least make an area safe for sewing in the evening to relax. I love your conversion of the Lighthouse, I enjoy all your conversions and they give me ideas for my own. I am currently working on the blue conversion for Christmas Elf by Nora Corbet. I have done three red, - all gifts - and the blue version is the fourth gift. I have also converted Nora Corbet’s Fern to represent the wine grape fairy, that was fun and it is another gift for a friend who has recently planted some wine grapes. I have been looking at the Chatalane patterns ( not sure I spelt that correctly🤨) with a view to a new start in January. Please keep up the good work and the videos, I enjoy them. 😊
@@Jayne22! I had to look up the Christmas Elf since I have never heard of her. I can imagine her in blue, which I think she’ll look lovely. I’m picturing a light grayish blue with some pinks in my mind now lol. Also which Chatelaine have you been eyeing?
My thoughts when I saw Andrew’s lighthouse, was I wondered what it would look like in red? I’m so thrilled to watch your progress and I’m excited to see your conversion, but probably not as a murder scene…lol 😂
Congrats on 1000 subscribers! Totally deserve it! Love how comfort lighthouse is looking and I"m so glad you joined in! Good companions is looking great! So close to a finish. I've never heard of embellished cross stitch... that is kinda disappointing sorry! can't wait for stitchopoly! Great update!
@@Peggys_still_stitching I knew I was gonna tag you about 3 weeks ago 😂 thanks for stopping by. I just started your retreat video this morning but didn’t get to finish. I’ll finish watching tonight.
@@JohonnaMarie I’ll try to go into more detail on my next video. The short answer is that I keep a master DMC set so I don’t have to look for floss. It’s all in one place. I also put stuff up as I go. My projects are split from full coverages and non full coverages so I know what pile to look for the WIP.
I am looking forward to your stitchopoly! My plans for games like wipgo change when the landscape of my WIPs changes. Right now I think I am going to follow Jenn’s game with a project assigned to each token and do the number of stitches on that project that the token is meant to do. But that’s for the non-focus pieces. Then there are focus pieces which I might do a dice game for. And a few weeks from now when I have a finish and my active WIPs changes, I’ll probably have to come up with new games or something. I haven’t even started any of this yet and I’ve already lost track
Hoi als een andere chatelaine maker zou ik je echt aanraden om de pdf te kopen dit maakt het zoveel makkelijker en de zijde draden en metaaldraadjes kunnen niet tegen water dus je kan hem niet wassen als je klaar bent

@@marzipanstitcher8571 for how small the sign was I wasn’t expecting that many stitches in it. I think it took about 2-3 days to finish it.

im completly new at hardanger too. i bought a book about different techniques that ends up in a sampler. had no idea there where actual patterns.
@@DebbieBuckland look up Emie Bishop. She has a few patterns. I didn’t find too many out there. Apparently it originated in Norway 🇳🇴

No murder scene at this lighthouse!

It's definitely a quick stitch! What I showed in my video was about 4 days of stitching. I cannot wait to see how it will look in a month.
