I so enjoy your videos, Stuart! Your sense of humor and your stitching are both appreciated. ~ And I'm not a fan much of Halloween, but I have to admit that I TRULY like your Dracula piece!! I may have to find it for my stash/wips rotation.
Great post! I love your stitching. Drakula was amazing!! I hope you enjoy Christmas and lots of gin. I am looking forward to catching up with you in the New Year.
If FlossTube and Home Shopping Network had a baby, you would BE the host and main enabler of the new channel! 😅 As usual, wonderful! Found a new project I now can’t live without. Happy Holidays!
Oh, yes, I was also inspired by Darren to stitch Spirit of Winter Robin, such a gorgeous design. Yes, the thread pallet is massive but beautiful!! You've inspired me to get back to it! 😊
Stuart I love you're style! So many fun finishes. Have you considered making the longer piece into a flat folded stand up? I think it would look great on a shelf or table and its easy to store when you want to. Thanks for the fun videos!
I always say Mr Darcy’s house as well. Great finish on that one. The charms are stunning. I think it’s a great series but one that is rarely seen stitched. Merry Christmas and happy stitching
great haul. while watching i started a Lola crow design called Carnivorous Terrarium - I am stitching up a blanket /throw with an apothecary/curiosity cabinet theme.
Catching up after Christmas, I hope you have had a beautiful time. Stitching on Fairytale Cottage by TCSS while watching. Ordering floss from the UK takes a little bit longer now, I live in Austria. But I love CXC floss, I mix it with dmc in my FC projects and works fine. Thank you for the great entertainment and I hope your 2025 will be full of joy, happiness and love. 🥰 Kitty
As always, a delightful flosstube from you. You have such a wonderful mix of projects! Wishing you the merriest of Christmas’s and the Happiness of New Years!
Thanks for keeping me company while I convert my bobbins to floss drops! When I couldn’t do any more, I worked on my January from Cricket Collection…. It’s ssssoooo close to a finish!
Dracula is amazing. I’ve been stitching Autumn Quaker by rosewood manor, finishing Miss Christmas Eve by mirabilia, and I just started the vanity sampler with my own color conversion
Hi there! Love looking at all your endeavors and the accompanying fabric and threads. Good luck on your buying ban. Shopping amongst your stash will make the 5 month quarantine go by quickly. After Covid, 5 months will be a breeze to get through. Then you can reward yourself! Just think how fun that will be….🎉. Happy Christmas season and New Year to you and your family and friends.🎄🪡🪡
Dracula looks fantastic as does your little ornament. Good luck for your stash ban, looking forward to hearing how it goes. I am also starting the SAL in January! Hope you have a Merry Christmas 🎅🏻
Hi Stuart, It's another great flosstube :) Thanks for showing the mini chatelaine and scissor watbo .I'll go search that . I just tried making a biscornu prototype to see if I could put it together before cross stitching for hours. It worked ! Happy stitching this holiday season !
Stitching Evening in the Park snowflakes - to go with the 5 inches of real snow we got in Boston yesterday. Love seeing your work - good luck on the buying pause....
Very pleasant video! Loved those wolves on your Dracular stitch!! While watching, I was stitching on Cranes from Owl Forest Embroidery. It too is a freebie and I'm using fabric and floss from stash. Easy, relaxing stitch. Greetings for a stitch filled 2025!
Dracula piece is spectacular! I do love the blood droplets. The house one is cute; perhaps put on a long board with magnets and change them out. I think it would be so expensive to frame each one individually. Stash ban for 5 months...uh....nope. I can not do that. Nope. But, good on you if you manage it. 😂 Merry Christmas to you and Carl and family. Happy New Year, too. ❤
Dracula finish is so good. Loved the Night walk down Blue Flower chart will be looking to get that😊 Merry Christmas, look forward to watching more of your videos in 2025 ❤
Dracula looks amazing! Well done! I hope you and Carl both had a wonderful Christmas and I wish you both a Happy New Year! With your encouragement, I have bought the 2025 HAED SAL pattern called A Mother's Love. It will be my first full coverage. Thank you.
Merry Christmas to you and Carl! I think the monthly houses would be cute stitched into a wall hanging. Then every month, you could switch them out for the new month 😊 I am stitching on The Yule Goddess by the Tiny Modernist while I watched this. She is my solstice start.
as always so good to see you and your stitching. I did get a finish on Cardinal Kin as you know whilst I watched. Merry Christmas to you and Carl, my friend. Much love, Tammy
Projects are wonderful as usual. I am currently working on My Christmas List by Silver Creek Samplers and started Sampler Santa by The Needles Notion. Happy Holidays….see you in the New Year🎉
I've just finished the Frosty Owl freebie for my tree .He's very cute. I love yourdracula especially the dripping blood .Have a lovely Christmas and hopefully see you in the new year .
Merry Christmas Stuart! Always great to see what you're working on and looking forward to seeing your start on Black Water Sirens. You've also enabled me with that gorgeous Dracula finish! Enjoy the holidays and see you in 2025!
Merry Christmas! I’m spending mine in Las Vegas. I just started Tiger Lily’s free Christmas tags. Great video and I look forward to watching you in 2025. Beautiful finishes 😊
Hi Stuart, doing catch up again! Christmas has now passed but hope you and Carl had a lovely time. Guessing the Amazon delivery was a stock up for Hogmanay? 😉 Stitching on Aimee Stewart’s A Stitch in Time while I catch up with you. Totally get the glance away and notice something new bit - love it! It’s happened to me a few times with full coverage. I have a Nora Corbett house on the go - Snowy Blue Church so you’ve inspired me to get it out. I also have those CCN monthly sampler charts and I think that’s the first time I’ve seen one stitched so I now also have that in my head - cheers 🤪 Happy New Year when it comes x
Hello again Stuart. I love your videos. Good luck on your stash ban. I try this but i’m never successful 😂😂 Merry Christmas to you and Carl. Happy stitching x
Lovely video , thank you. I'll join you on the stash ban for 4 months, my husband would love that. But I can't do 5 months as I am going to Stitch North in Canada and intend to do some shopping
Enjoying your videos Stuart, lots of beautiful work. The Abundance of Joy ornament is a design I am about to start, my first HAED. I have stitched two small test pieces on 25 & 28 count fabric which ruled out Tent stitch but I am still undecided on which count to use. I will have to have a good hard look at the test pieces. I feel for the excessing stretching on your linen piece. I was working on a small Omanik frame and the fabric started tear from one side. I am hoping a rub with sandpaper and less tension will prevent a future similar occurrence. Best wishes for the New Year.
Have a Wonderful Christmas. 🎄🎁 The shelves behind you area tademptycompared to your previous video's, have you been doing a tidy up? Thank you for posting, please keep posting. I enjoy your company as I stitch. 😊 You are right to be pleased with Dracula. The Guardian looks great. Oh please, do arrange to pull a coatstand out of one of your bags.👍
Merry Christmas to you both ❤. Enjoy your videos and the stunning projects that may or may not get finished in your lifetime 😂. While watching I stitched some more on Anne Thomas 1854 by HATS on 46ct Atelier by Nicola at Number12StitchCo ( wonderful Australian dyer who live a street away) with the Vicky Clayton silks. First time I've used these silks .....they are fantastic.
Thanks for the video, Stuart :D! I'm so tempted to start the Black Water Sirens SAL. I'm working on Eiffel Elegance (HAED) while watching. Merry Christmas!
Lovely video as always! I am currently working on Moonlight Nessie by Lola Crow, which is a gift for my dad. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to Carl and yourself! Good luck with your buying ban, I'm sure you will do great!
Always enjoy your updates. Thanks for sharing! Wish you a very Merry Christmas and happy 2025! Good luck with the stash freeze. Maybe I will try joining you! 😊
The Heaven and Earth Designs ornament is beautiful! I am wondering if taking on a full coverage ornament would be the way to go for someone to dip their toe into a full coverage piece. I would LOVE it if Amazon would bring me two bottles of gin! Or bourbon! I hope you and Carl have a very happy Christmas and a splendid New Year!
Love all the projects. The Dracula finish is fab. I know Dacre Stoker (Bram's Grand nephew) I may send on a link to your finish.🎉 have a very merry Christmas
Another entertaining video. How about a couple of gin reviews? I’ve got one from Barra to try over Christmas. Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy Hogmanay! See you soon.
Hey Stuart. I asked before and you addressed but wasn't clear on what I was asking. Methods of stitching are the english method or the danish method. Can you do a video of how you like to stitch. Just curious. Thanks. Love watching your progress.
Hi Stuart - another great video! Thank you for sharing. Whilst watching I have been working on Pumpkin Colour Autumn which is a freebie from Owl Forest Embroidery - free won't affect your stash ban will it? :) I finished Little Pudding by Bothy Threads yesterday which I started 30th November - somewhat of a record for me! Have a great Christmas and look forward to hearing more from you in the New Year XX
Here's my question--if your friend finds a new partner within the next five months, are you absolved of your pledge? Love your videos and your stitiching.
Oh, Stuart! Dracula is magnificent! Well done, you! Merry Christmas to you both. And a happy new year.
Colin Firth 😍😋 My Christmas Eve tradition is to watch Pride and Prejudice.
Merry Christmas!🌻
I so enjoy your videos, Stuart! Your sense of humor and your stitching are both appreciated.
~ And I'm not a fan much of Halloween, but I have to admit that I TRULY like your Dracula piece!! I may have to find it for my stash/wips rotation.
Merry Christmas Stuart! I look forward to your videos, you always make me smile! Adore your Dracula finish, the colour fade on the wording is amazing!
Great post! I love your stitching. Drakula was amazing!! I hope you enjoy Christmas and lots of gin. I am looking forward to catching up with you in the New Year.
Dracula is very effective!! Love it!! Congratulations on another finish. Happy holidays!
Merry Christmas to you and your husband, ❤❤❤❤
If FlossTube and Home Shopping Network had a baby, you would BE the host and main enabler of the new channel! 😅 As usual, wonderful! Found a new project I now can’t live without. Happy Holidays!
Watched #8 & 9 back to back. You did make me giggle. Loving your finishes esp. Dracula. Those wolves are amazing ❤

Merry Christmas, i ❤ your amazing projects and your video
Merry Christmas!
I am making an assumption the shop won't be at the March retreat haha x
Thankfully 🤣🤣🤣
The Heaven and Earth Designs ornament is beautiful! I am wondering if taking on a full coverage ornament would be the way to go for someone to dip their toe into a full coverage piece. I would LOVE it if Amazon would bring me two bottles of gin! Or bourbon! I hope you and Carl have a very happy Christmas and a splendid New Year!
Ornaments are very achievable full coverage projects
I have changed all my wips to qsnaps tried nurge and prefer a qsnap 😊 have a lovely Christmas 🎉x
Love all the projects. The Dracula finish is fab. I know Dacre Stoker (Bram's Grand nephew) I may send on a link to your finish.🎉 have a very merry Christmas
Oh wow, that's really interesting. And thank you, I'd love to hear his opinion on it
Another entertaining video. How about a couple of gin reviews? I’ve got one from Barra to try over Christmas. Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy Hogmanay! See you soon.

Hey Stuart. I asked before and you addressed but wasn't clear on what I was asking. Methods of stitching are the english method or the danish method. Can you do a video of how you like to stitch. Just curious. Thanks. Love watching your progress.
I use both methods depending on what I'm working on or where in a project I am
Beautiful patterns and stitching Q. Is that Dragon pattern still available
Only on the secondary market nowadays, eg ebay
Hi Stuart - another great video! Thank you for sharing.

🤣🤣🤣 it might be considered as breaking the spirit of the stash ban
Hello, I live in Nottingham and how do you find retreats in the UK all the ones I found are in America but I would love to go to one that's here?
Check the retreat groups on facebook eg NOBAM, mirabilia Retreat, Bella Filipina Retreat
@@stuartsinstitches I'll have a look thank you!
Hi, wishing you a Merry Christmas and New Year. Keep up the videos in 2025.
Stuart do you do 2 over 1 or 1 over 1 on 18 count ? Thanks
2x1 full crosa
Here's my question--if your friend finds a new partner within the next five months, are you absolved of your pledge? Love your videos and your stitiching.
Stash ban for five months? Id find another friend ...
Merry Christmas!
