Maria Ewin is gorgeous! Beautiful stitching and so much progress! And those mice by Just Nan!!! Gah! Already in my cart! And the detail you did with the skates and ornaments are delightful. Thank you for doing these flosstubes!!!
Well, thank you so much for watching! I appreciate the kind words. I have really been enjoying these projects lately and am glad to have people to share them with. I'll be back next month with more progress! Let me know how you get on with those mice! Happy stitching! 🥰
I hated the border as well. As did many of us who stitched it. When completed it is a true beauty..stay with it
That is Mary Florence Dickenson
I know it will be worth it so I will definitely persist but she may take me a while longer than some of my other samplers. But I want her on my wall! 😊
Could you do a video showing you just stitching in your preferred method?
I would LOVE to do a stitch-with-me video! The trouble is I need a special support for my phone to get the right angle but it's on my wishlist! Thank you for your feedback ❤️
In Australia at Christmas time it's 40°! Santa is insane and would drop dead , hence NOT deliver to the Northern Hemisphere, if he's not wearing boardshorts and thongs ( not underwear but shoes) with his 6 white Boomers ( male kangaroos) pulling the sleigh.
😂😂😂 Funny how different places have different versions of that same story! Love it!
Maria Ewin is gorgeous. I’m enabled. Marie Louise Piret is looking so good. Love your Christmas choices. That is a great Santa. Happy stitching and take care!
Are you going to start Maria?? She's definitely proven to be so much more beautiful in person than she was in the photographs and I thought she looked pretty darn good in the photos! Thank you so much for another lovely comment. Happy stitching to you as well! Talk to you again next month 🥰
@@StitchStitchBead I believe so! I need to kit it up!
@@angelchadwell6656 Let me know what fabric and floss you decide on!
For me, there was a major absence in the 12 days of stitching - the Nativity ❤ I will certainly not do a nutcracker (not a fan either). The selection of beautiful nativities that are available to stitch is expansive! I've ordered many of them 🥰 Love your videos!
You're right! And I thought there should be a stocking amongst the prompts but I imagine Arica will continue this in the future and may switch up the prompts to include things like a nativity, stocking, etc. Thanks so much for watching and enjoy stitching up the fun things in your stash! ❤️
I LOVE your Dash Away All. The original poem speaks of eight *tiny* reindeer and Santa is a right jolly old *elf.* This pillow is perfection.
I actually started Dash Away All just a couple days ago because it is definitely one of my new favorites! Super cute and love all the bright red lettering. Thanks so much for watching! 😊
@@StitchStitchBead I had to go take a nap to avoid the worst of today's heat wave (108) and I came back to your choice for village. oh, my heart. That is going to be my choice, too. Then I spent an hour looking at all of her patterns. Just love them. I also hate nutcrackers. I think my solution will be to pick a squirrel.
@@sleepycalico That village, I know!!! Definitely on my wishlist. Sorry to hear about the heat where you are! It was toasty in Indianapolis today but nowhere near 108! Stay safe! ❤️
Lots of great ideas for organizing- thanks for sharing! Wondering what the smaller containers w lids for your kitted 100/3 are or where to find them? I have been using acrylic lipstick containers but like the idea of the lid for ability to travel with them. Thanks!
The smaller boxes for spools are Gutterman boxes and you can find them on Amazon in a few different sizes. Thanks for watching!
Thank you!
I just read the Mysterious Benedict Society too! I wanted to check that it was appropriate for my kids before I bought the series for them and I got hooked! They loved it too of course. I finished the series and loved them. I love these rambling videos. Thanks for sharing!
Haha rambling, I know! But I’m glad you enjoy. And I just finished the second Benedict so now it’s time for number three! 😁
Love the color changes in the berries on Emeline. What is the darker green color you are using in that pattern? It looks like the green I should convert to for Elizabeth Furniss….and thank you so much for sharing #astitchers12daysofchristmas ! I absolutely love your selections. I have debated over the just nan mice for years and I think I need to make them this year!
I saw your post and have been mulling it over! I sent you a picture on Instagram with some suggested greens! Let me know if you need more!
❤❤❤
You’re charming and a natural on video. Subscribed ❤
Thank you for the kind words and for subscribing! 🥰
Love your videos and enjoy your sense of humor! AND guess I will be making a few chart orders very soon!😉
Haha I am happy to help put some new charts on your wishlist! Thanks so much for watching! ☺️
Thanks for another fantastic video! I recently finished Ye Olde Noel by Heartstring Samplery. My grandmother's birthday was close to Christmas, so I added her name and birth date to the bottom. I almost always stitch over one on 28 count linen, so it's pretty small. ❤
That is a beautiful piece and I love the personalization! Thanks so much for watching and your kind comment 🥰
Hi, Audrey! It was so fun to visit with you again! Even though I am not a sampler stitcher myself, I am always in awe of your very beautiful stitching on all the ones you show us. And your color choices are just amazing! I so agree about doing small projects… a good mixture to keep things fresh and fun. I was laughing so much about the perforated paper “propaganda”!! I love that your son is enjoying stitching, too. That’s such a joy! Speaking of that, YOU are a joy, and you always make me laugh 😅. Thank you for that! Y’all have a wonderfully fun trip to London. Till next time… Meline
Thanks, Meline! Happy to make you laugh and get to show some projects you might like. I'm having a lot of fun stitching smalls this month and already finished another since this video posted so I'll definitely have some things to show next time with lots of my own color choices! Thanks again so much for watching! Lovely as always to hear from you 🥰
Two question’s for you- are Painter’s Thread silks? And where did you get them? Whoops 3rd question is what is the gold backing you had put on the back of Mill Hill Santa you showed? Your stitching is great. Love the samplers!
The variegated spooled silk is Painter's Thread from ThreadNuts.com, yes. It's wonderful! The gold backing on my Mill Hill Christmas ornaments is just some embossed scrapbook paper I purchased from Michaels a few years ago. Unfortunately they no longer carry that particular design but any thick scrapbook paper combined with acid free craft glue will finish Mill Hill kits nicely! 😊 Thanks so much for watching!
I so enjoy your flosstube and all your beautiful work! Would you be able to share your conversion with the added threads for Emeline Hotchkiss? This is on my list to start and would like to try using these threads for the first time and love the 4 colors you added. Thanks, Audrey!
Thank you so much! Yes, I am happy to share. For the berries or fruit in the trees on Emeline I used 284 (which is already called-for in the chart) as well as 060, 494, and 655. Those are 100.3 spooled silk by Au ver a Soie and you should be able to order them from Hoop & Frame or 123Stitch or your LNS. Happy stitching! 😊
Thank you very much!!
I loved the theme of Christmas in July and worked on Christmas Delivery by Cottage Garden Sampling. I often find it difficult to work on Christmas smalls instead of my samplers, but I want the small pieces for decorating as well. You have wonderful projects going. Thank you for sharing Audrey. Take care.
Thank you so much, Sarah! I am having fun with these Christmas smalls but those samplers are calling and I'll be glad to get back to them. Thanks again for watching! 🥰
🌞🌞🌞
Beautiful work! Thanks for all the info. Margie \TN
Thank you for watching, Margie! 🥰
Wow!! Audrey - I wasn't that bothered for Jolly July until I listened to you - what a fantastic enthusiastic review of Christmas charts!! Love those prompts!! Missing you already :)
Thank you, Sian! You are such an inspiration so I am very flattered that you pop over to visit with me here. Love all your smalls and definitely need some of my own so figured I'd better get on it! Can't wait for your next video as well! 🥰 🥰 🥰
@@StitchStitchBead you are too kind! Did you tell us about your little stitched brooch?? It’s so cute ☺️
@@periwinklestitcher I should have! It’s one of the birds from Mrs Campbell by HATS with silks from stash. Finished in a frame from ArtBase on Etsy and glued a pin on the back. Easy peasy!
@@StitchStitchBead well it’s very cool on your denim jacket!! Loving it 😍
You may be my person! I love everything you do and I’m kitting up the 2023 Queen of the May as soon as I get to the attic for Summer School
Haha we'll have to meet one of these days! In the meantime maybe we can figure out something to stitch together for a SAL. I don't have enough WIPs apparently 😂 Enjoy Summer School! So wish I was going but I look forward to hearing your stories after you get back 🥰
@@StitchStitchBead we do! I’ll message you on Instagram and we’ll figure something out -have fun in London so jealous 😩
Hi Audrey. It was fun to see your choices for the best of Christmas. That Renata Parolin tree is fab! Thanks for sharing the Mill Hill harp. It’s on my list of starts for later this year and was fun to see it finished, even if you did find it tricky on the strings.
So glad you're going to stitch the harp! I love those instruments. They really sparkle on our tree. Thanks so much for watching, Sarah, and for commenting! Happy stitching and all the best to you and your family 🥰
Lovely projects, always very inspiring, thankyou for sharing Audrey. Have a super holiday with your family ❤
Thank you, Sue! Glad I showed some things that you liked. Thanks for watching! 😊
Loved your video! Don’t worry about wrinkles in your stitching; some of your viewers are more wrinkled than your fabric was and we don’t iron our faces!
This made me laugh! I try not to worry about it too much but they do look nice and crisp when ironed! Maybe when Maria is all done 😊 Thanks so much for watching!
It’s always fun to see friends very excited and all wound up about stitching! 🤣💕
Hepped up about ALL the Christmas stuff! 😁
I print my "most favoritist" charts on a 28lb bright white paper. It's just a little heavier but goes through my junky printer just fine.
I’ll have to try that! Just can’t get used to stitching off of a screen. Thanks for watching! 😊
What a wonderful video. Your stitching is beautiful. The Christmas prompt selections are all great with some new to me designers. Thank you for the inspiration. I’m in awe of how much stitching you accomplish. Enjoy your trip.
I’m so glad I was able to show some designers that not everyone knows. Thanks so much for watching! I’ll definitely have things to share after London. Happy stitching! 😊
Thank you my Dear this lovely video full of many beautiful samplers and Christmas ornies ♥️ especially the Nutcracker ♥️♥️♥️ I am waiting for the next video 🥰
So sweet! Thanks for watching! 🥰
Audrey, so much fun seeing your excitement over Christmas in July…you showed some fantastic designs. Of course your stitching is amazing, happy to hear you are delighted with Roxy linen & floss..I also bought Catharine Rees but have not started yet😉❤ As I did start Florence she was in my stash all kitted on 46 ct with 100.3 border is slow going but stunning she is also on hold as I do Christmas stitching right now..London how spectacular what stitching are you taking for on plane or don’t you stitch either way have a wonderful family time. See you next time 🤗♥️
I will absolutely be taking stitching for those long plane rides even though I may not get a lot of stitching done while we’re there. Trying to figure out what my travel projects will be. Probably more Christmas and I’ll get back to my samplers in August. Thanks so much for watching! Happy stitching on Florence and your other projects! 😊
Love all your projects. Have a great time in London. I saw Erica's video as well about her ideas for Christmas. Always get great ideas from everyone when they share!
Thank you so much! Yes, loved her Christmas videos and knew I had to share my favorites too. Thanks for watching! Happy stitching! 😊
Hi Audrey, love all you videos. Love the 12 days of Christmas ( maybe ). Love those threads that green with blues in it . What's the name. Thank you❤
The variegated spooled silk is from ThreadNuts.com and the particular green I used is called Cezanne. Check them out. They’re great to work with! Thanks for watching! 😊
@@StitchStitchBead with thread nuts do they work on higher counts like what?. Only gone up to 40 but had a birthday recently and got some 46😯 🤣
@@yvonnevigil7489 The spooled silk from Thread Nuts is an overdyed 100.3. The Christmas piece was stitched on 46 ct and I have used 100.3s on 56 as well! I would say they work best on 40 to 56 ct but would look a bit thin on 36 and lower.
@@StitchStitchBead thank you dear. Not a sill user here ( yet ) 🤭
So glad you posted, I look forward to your videos ❤ great ideas for Christmas. Enjoy London!
Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed. I'll have lots of stories from London on my next video, I'm sure. Thanks for watching! 😊
I am gobsmacked! Never before have I heard anything so wonderful. I was laughing and thought about your son wanting some "Weeks." I congratulate you! Good parenting is hard to find these days, and your kids are on the right path to a fulfilling future. I'm in awe! Let them wander where they may. Who knows -- an interest in cross stitch may lead to saving the world one day. God love and bless you and your beautiful family.
You are very kind! I am doing my best and think they're already better behaved, more flexible, and open to exploring and trying new things than I ever was at their age so I must be doing okay! Thank you very much for watching and your kind comments. Much love to you as well 🥰
I've started Christmas in July stitching too, but I'm trying to keep it to what's already in my stash, and you just made that so hard to do! All your Mill Hill ornaments gave me a great idea. My favorite 12 Days of Christmas is the new one released just recently - Annie Beez 12 Days of Christmas Stockings. It's shown on 14 count black Aida, but I prefer linen & seriously dislike stitching on black, but I do have some black perforated paper!
How could I forget Annie Beez's 12 Days! So cute! I don't blame you about the dark linen. I have a piece and I wonder how challenging it will be to use. I'm glad you found some things to add to your wishlist but I don't blame you for sticking to your stash. Goodness knows we have enough! 😂 Thanks for watching! 😊
Watched Arica yesterday and enjoyed her thought process. And was really impressed with what you selected, Audrey! Thanks for showing all you did and skipping the purchases. Have a good trip to London! (Going to see the Royal School of Needlework at Hampton Court?)
Thank you! Yes, I can't buy everything but was happy to share the gems that I found. And I would love to see some needlework exhibits with in the UK but we may not have time. I'll let you guys know when I get back! Thanks for watching 😊
I agree with you on the Nutcrackers lol but dang you. I ended up on Etsy because of this video lol. You are a master Enabler but we love it!!!!
Doing my part to help the designers lol!! Glad you found some things you like 😊
Can you share your colors for the trees. I live that much better myself. It's beautiful!!
Hi! I'm sorry but can you tell me what chart you're referring to? I'd love to share the colors! 😊
@@StitchStitchBead So sorry...the Emmeline Hotchkiss Canadian sampler. Your changes are beautiful 😍!
@@pamklipsic5036 Thank you! For the berries or fruit in the trees I used 284 (which is already called-for in the chart) as well as 060, 494, and 655. I think they all work well together! 🥰
@@StitchStitchBead Thank you again for sharing! I look forward to your next update on this sampler💕
That project bag is gorgeous!
Thanks! I love it 🥰
Hi, Audrey! It was great to visit with you again! Those little Mill Hill kits you showed at the beginning of your video are just precious! As a big fan of refrigerator magnets myself, I really admire the ones you’re going to adorn yours with. And when you showed all those tiny Shepherd’s Bush projects that you’d customized, I just fell in love!! You have a genius way of adapting them to your own tastes, and they are just beautiful. Thank you for sharing those, and all the other projects you’ve been working on. I hope you enjoyed the rest of your “quiet house” time while Ryan and the kids were away. I’m definitely planning on looking into the Mysterious Benedict Society books, too…they sound like a fun read. Happy stitching to you until next time! 🥰 Meline
Thank you, Meline! Nearing the end of the second Benedict Society and things are certainly exciting! 😅 Thank you for your kind comments. It's been fun to stitch reproductions exactly as charted but then take some liberties and make changes to other things. I have a notion that one day I'll make my own sampler from scratch but we aren't there yet! Thanks so much for watching! Talk to you again in a couple weeks! 🥰
So good to catch up with you! And you have a MIRA?!!! Amazing! Talk about a different stitch for you - I hope you enjoy it!
Your videos show lots of awesome patterns and stitching but personally, but I feel exhausted after watching this! Don’t you ever need a sip of water or a breather?🙂
The first thing I do as soon as I sign off is get a drink! I don't clean up until I've had a pick-me-up 😂 Thanks so much for sticking with me! I know these videos can be long! 😊
@@StitchStitchBead I do love your stitching though! No need to change any part of that. That is what keeps me coming back. We have the exact same taste in patterns. Job well done even though it is a bit overwhelming by the end!
I was able to visit the Attic during a trip with my husband and I bought the Scarlett Letter pattern with the cathedral. My friends didn't seem to like it when I showed it to them but the model was so beautiful!
That model for Amelia Boyce SOLD that pattern! I agree that the pattern doesn't do it justice but I loved the finished piece! Hope to start it this year. Do you have a fabric color in mind for that one? I haven't narrowed it down. Thanks for watching! 😊
I bought cedar river linen tephra in 40 count and I'm using the soie d'alger silks. I'm not totally thrilled with the fabric colour but I'm still going with it.
@@lisavoss4164 Thank you for sharing! If you’re on instagram please tag me. I would love to see your progress!
Thanks for the video. I really like your sampler choices. I need to come up with my own initial signature. Two Cs are hard to do. Have you watched the Curious Crafters? One of the sisters is doing Emmaline Hotchkiss with silks and it is Beautiful with her changes! Go watch.
I hope you can come up with a design you like to include your initials on your work! And I have watched the Curious Crafters! I do love the changes that Carolyn made to her Emeline and have made some small changes to mine as well 😊 Thanks for watching!
Take him to the Transport Museum. He’ll love it … Enjoy London. One of my favourite cities in the world
Thank you for the recommendation! 😊
When our kids were the ages of yours, they would find a book they loved and tell me, like yours, "Mom, you have to read this!" We had five and six kids at that point. Time was an issue. I was doing a bit of cross stitch here and there, but that also was a time issue. So I suggested they read to me while I sewed. They loved it. "Mom, are you ready to sew now?" And so they would read aloud to me something they loved, and their little siblings got to hear the story, too, if they wanted. Precious times.
That is a WONDERFUL idea, to do something together that gives enjoyment to all and has created what must be beautiful memories. I will have to try it! Thank you for sharing 🥰
Psych!! Love that show! We have all the seasons and watch it all the time.
Yes!!! Do you have a favorite episode??
I love all the episodes with Cary Ellewes. I think I spelled his last name wrong. Desparo.
@@bvdstitching Those are great!
Great flosstube! And have added several samplers to my wish list that you showed us!
Thank you! And that's awesome! Which one was your favorite? 😊
@@StitchStitchBead - well, there are two! Maria Erwin & Rose Ada Featherstone!
@@georgiaobrien8393 Good choices!
Love the changes you made to the Shepherd's Bush patterns to commemorate your trips! I am always a fan of personalizing. Enjoy your empty home and cereal meals! Sometimes it's nice not to have to be accountable to anyone but yourself!
I'll admit, a quiet house can be a blessing! Thanks so much for watching! I'll be back in a few weeks with more fun stuff to share 😊
Wow! Time for me to get out my pitiful start on Maria Ewin back out. Yours is so beautiful! Thanks for the inspiration!
I’m working on her right now! One of my favorite projects to date! 😊
