I marvel at your beautiful color sense on the one where you are using left over silks, starting with the lavenders and blues and changing to different colors as you go.
Thank You!! It is quite stressful picking the next color!!! LOL
So many incredible projects! Loved seeing all of the catch up projects - you've made some really substantial progress on them. Congratulations again on your retirement!
Thank You!!!
Happy Retirement! 👏🏻 I really enjoyed seeing your WIPS and new starts this morning! It would be hard to choose a favourite as so many are wonderful! But I have always liked the Black Vintage Sampler and the Serenity Harbour. The tiny Seaside Town is really sweet! Have a great Stitchy week ahead! Cheers! 🧑🏻🦰🇨🇦🌺
Thank You Marilyn!
Hooray for retirement! Your stitching is always inspiring. Do you have a suggestion for a tutorial/or flosstube that addresses the "parking" of threads, like you have done on your May 6th "Stitching Shelf" piece? Would love to learn tips on successfully executing full coverage pieces like this. Thanks so much!
Congratulations on your retirement. Your progress and finishes on projects are beautiful.

How do you get so much done??? You are amazing! I would love to know how you schedule everything, since you seem to be able to do so many projects. Congratulations on your retirement! Now, I bet you will really set the world on fire! Love your work!
Thank You!! I am still figuring out what my stitching schedule will be now that I am retired. But in general, it will be similar to what I have done for the last few years. You can see an example of that in video #30.
@@Handworkmaniac Oh great! Thank you! I am going to see it now!
Oh you are going to love retirement!! Enjoy ! So many wonderful pieces. I can only imagine how much you are going to get done now !!

I always enjoy seeing your lovely stitching. I like how you have organized the Maynia projects. Someday I want to do that ... Maybe when I retire although you have been doing the calendar before you retired! You are awesome!

Congratulations on your retirement!!🎉 Are you able to share, in more details, how you stitched the water on Serenity Harbor Sampler? Thank you. 😊
Thank You Mary! I will try and explain it a little better in my next video :) The "gum leaves" Dinky Dyes thread varies quite a bit from light to dark. So I just stitched in kind of wavy strips, crossing each x as I went.
❤❤❤
Hi Samantha!!!!! I was just watching your video last night and LOVED it!!!!!!!!!
Congratulations on your retirement
Thank You Helen!
Hi Brenda, amazing all your projects and to take pictures each time. Lovely. Question do you know where patchwork sample came from. I have loved it for years think Jan Hicks stitched this. Think I need it. ❤ take care
Thank You Yvonne!! It looks like you can buy it on Etsy from this shop owner in the Netherlands. It is a .pdf download and he has many of Jan Houtman's designs :)

@@Handworkmaniac thank you have a nice weekend
I love your color conversion on Carolyn Manning’s Fairy Square! Care to share it?
Sure! Just email me at AdnerbYakJ@gmail.com and I will send it to you :)
For your Village Canal project, I love the fabric you are using and I would like to use it for the same project, but when I looked up blue dreams on fabric flair it was not there. Could you be wrong about the dyer.
Hi Sheri! It is a beautiful fabric. Here is a link to it: www.stitcheryxpress.com/shop/counted-cross-stitch-fabric/fabric-flair/blue-dreams/
Do you stitch with 2 hands or do stab and poke stitching?
Hi Jeanette! I am a one handed stitcher and I do stab and poke stitching :) But I do keep my left hand on the back of my work to help guide my right hand and the needle a little bit.
