You are seriously one of my favorite TH-camrs! Always so inspiring and uplifting. I just love your sewing creations also and am so impressed with the fit you achieve.
Awe, thank you so much. That makes my day! Thanks for joining me. I only achieve a decent fit because I sew with stretchy knit clothing and not woven..🤣
Thank you so much! Yes, I love those big bags. They are perfect for my full coverage and dimensions projects. :) I've started listing some in my etsy shop because I think they are so helpful for full coverage!
I am right there with you…so good in 2023 at finishing things as I go and only having a couple of big projects…this year I want to stitch everything. My viewers are going to wonder what is happening to me. Oh welll….it is fun.
What a great sweatshirt! How do you accomplish so much with 2 little ones? Wow! Just impressed with all you do. Happy Stitching and I’ll see you in 3 weeks! - Valerie
I love your sweatshirt and dress!! Love your stitching and you get SO much done!! I hope your wrist feels better. You probably just need to rest it and maybe ice it? Take a break and read?? WOW!! 😮 I never would have thought you were 40!! You look maybe 30!! 40s are great! Shirley IS so pretty!! Gorgeous floss! The advent calendar will be sweet! lol you make me laugh!
Great sweatshirt you made! Looks cozy. I had started the winter cabin stitch, but my eyes just can’t do it. lol oh well. I did a big Dimension pattern years ago, and it’s hanging in my kitchen. I think it’s called Silent Night, with the deer, raccoon, cardinal all looking at the Christmas star. Great progress on your WIps. They will look amazing.
I have that Nativity Advent Calendar finished! We use it every year and my kids take turns picking the characters to hang up each day. It was originally a kit - regular Dimensions I think, but I can’t remember. I think I probably show it in my Finish Parade - one of my original videos. Also, I’m not positive, but those “crop” patterns you have by the Cross Stitch Studio might be like the QS patterns can sometimes be on HAED - they’re just a crop of the original artwork, but that section is charted larger than it would have been in the full size pattern. That’s to give that section extra details. If those patterns seem overwhelming, I might consider getting the full size pattern instead and cropping it to the section I like myself in PK - that way the final design size of that section will be more reasonable.
Oh wow! I had no idea it was a kit. It's so cute!! I'm definitely going to go find the video where you show it. I love it! And that's such good info on the crop images. I didn't realize they did that. No wonder they are huge! Lol. I'll look into that for next time. Thank you!!
I can't fully remember because I have had it on hand for so long I don't remember the weight but I feel like I might be 12 gauge.... You definitely don't want it too thin or it will get a hole and you don't want it super thick with no flexibility either..

Beautiful progress on your WIPs! Your large bag that you showed is awesome, it holds so much! 😍

Awe, you made my day! Maybe the camera hides the wrinkles and gray hairs that are starting to make themselves known. 🤣

Awe. That sounds beautiful! I'm not sure that I have ever seen that one before. I think I'd want it if I do. Lol!

Love your flosstube. Can someone tell me what is the best vinyl to use for the front of a project bag? Thank you so much.

Are the butterflies upside down? Love your sweatshirt with the thumb holes.
Thank you the butterflies are kind of all different directions. :)
Oh yes I see some are upward with the big wings up. Seeing with one eye here. 😅
