I'm just a girl, standing in front of a cross stitch pattern, asking it to come home with her.
Join me as we talk about stitchy crafts - primarily Cross stitch but may also some Knitting, crocheting, sewing and quilting! We may also talk about stories because stories and stitches are two things that sum up a number of my interests and passions!

I hope the end of your summer was wonderful!

Too much rambling 😢
I am a rambler! Sorry it didn't fit what you prefer, but I hope you enjoyed your stay :)
I am also working on Sleepy Hollow. I love Everything Tastes Better with Chocolate Chips.
The Villains cross stitch turned out fabulous!
Great to hang out with you! Happy stitching 💜
Hi again, I enjoyed seeing all of your projects you were working on. Your camping trip looked like a very nice spot. I'm glad that you could go and do that. Have a great September and can't wait to see you again.
Camping looked like a blast! You're lucky, September is only the main event and weeklies! No monthlies, hahaha! Perfect for Astrology Cat! ;)
@britches__get__stitches oh my goodness! I didn't even THINK about astrology cat as a SAL! I was trying to decide which SAL to work on for that. Lately (other than August) I've been doing only monthlies, so I was trying to pivot my brain for this month. Poor neglected astrology cat could definitely use the love LOL thanks for the reminder!!!
@@StoriesandStitches Sure thing! I'm working on Tintern for mine!
Oh my goodness, The Sims!!! I love it, but haven't played in AGES. Hmmmm....
@whichstitchps right!? I feel like it's that kind of game it goes away and hides until all of a sudden it says "you know you want to play..."
You have to finish that snow leopard! Gorgeous.
Thank you! I always remember how nice it looks when I pull it out, but it scares me since I"ve had to redo so much of it LOL. I really should pull it out again though
You have a great recorded voice. You should do voiceover advertising!!!
awww thanks so much!
I love your trailer (it looks so cozy,!) and you were in a beautiful spot! I take some stitching (much less than you because I have kids to entertain) camping with me also, but I have yet to meet anyone else while out and about. I do enjoy seeing your surroundings & process in this vlog style. Keep on enjoying your summer!
Thank you so much! It is super cozy, I love it! I also haven't ever seen anyone else stitching while camping (other than my mom of course, lol). And thank you so much for the feedback on the vlog style :)
Enjoyed seeing you again. I loved the villian cross stitch. It turned out so pretty. Have a great week and see you soon.
Thanks so much!
🧚♀️💕
No audio issues here! I love your new start! Happy stitching 💜
Thank you so much!! I meant to respond to this right away and completely forgot. I was so worried that it sounded weird. I think it might actually be my laptop speakers that are the problem... I have to remember to use headphones when I edit.
Enjoyed seeing you again. I love all the cross stitch you are working on. Have fun camping and hope to see you soon.
Number 2 Happy Stitching and Camping, looks like a beautiful place to spend time at.
Thank you so much!!
Happy Stitching and Happy Camping Looks like a beautiful place to spend time at!!
Hey Everyone!! As I was editing, I ran into a few weird sound issues. I think (and hope) that I fixed them, but I apologize in advance for any weird audio you may encounter!
💕🧚♀️
Great vlog! While I'm only a stitcher and dont puzzle, I also follow Karen Puzzles and enjoyed your puzzle content! Happy stitching 💜
@LidiasLeisurelyStitching thank you!!! I recently discovered Karen Puzzles and I love her videos! They're one of the things that all came together to rekindle my puzzling. It's nice to hear you enjoyed the puzzle parts 😊
Thank you for sharing your time and talents , I always enjoy your episodes. When I am working on a full coverage piece I do "cross country " stitching. ~Amy
@amyp8237 thank you so much for watching 😊 I love cross country. It's the style that most often feels most natural to me.
I'm interested in knowing your sorting method for your puzzle.
@jeanjeanes1824 honestly at this point it's a bit haphazard lol. I have always sorted as I went - so deciding on a section and then finding all the pieces for that section. And maybe also pulling for obvious sections at the same time. Lately I've been testing out the "sort first" method by grouping edge pieces and then "like" colours. But it's a work in progress lol. I actually intended to talk a bit about it this video but accidentally deleted that part! Next time I sort a puzzle I'll talk through the process a bit more 😊
Thank you for the video. Great progress. Happy stitching
@@ninahobbysite thank you 😊
Good to see you again. Have fun camping.
@JillPoteat-fd5xi thanks!!
I’m in my RV for 3 months of the year. I bring 7 projects with me. Each has its own project bag with every color needed for it. I keep my floss on rings so no bulky plastic containers. Everything fits in one big tote bag which also contains extra floss in plastic bags. My biggest project has 236 colors. My smallest has 30ish colors. It was no big deal to organize for the RV as that’s how I’m organized at home too. My master set is in a closet on floss rings on a sturdy wooden hanger which has prongs on it. It takes up very little space and I was able to eliminate the use of hard plastic containers. Have fun camping.
@dianemiller7994 thank you so much for commenting! I love the idea of floss rings but have only just started to dip my toe into that method. I've used bobbins since I was little so I'm so much more used to that method. But I love how the Rings take up less space and are so easy yo use generally. What type of floss drop situation do you use? Or do you use floss bags?
@@StoriesandStitches The only time I use floss bags is for silk threads. They can fray easily. I use floss drops - the ones from Atom Heart. They have several types, so you can pick and choose. Happy stitching to you.
Very nice stitching.
@@Linda-Lovestostitch thank you 😊
I’m so sorry about the loss of your cat. I lost mine a month ago. He was also 15 years old and was my cuddle buddy since he was 6 months old. I miss him a lot. All the best to you 💕
Thank you 💜 I am so sorry to hear of the loss of your cat recently 😔
Space ;) I’m behind on videos, now off to watching the next ones. Looking forward to the story. Also, thanks for the game recos, trek and stardew, two of my favorite things 🖖🏻
Thank you!!! I have gotten delayed on the story because of life, but I'm definitely hoping to get back to it soon :) And I agree - as soon as I heard trek and stardew I knew I had to check it out
@@StoriesandStitches no worries, I know how it is. Been writing on my book on and off for a year and not much to show for it so far. So, I've played Little-Known Galaxy for a while now, absolutely love it!!
Enjoyed seeing all of your cross stitching. It's beautiful. I'm sorry about your cat. I've been through that, and it's tough. My cats are my children. I hope you have a better week and can't wait to see you again.
Thank you so much 💜
Sorry to hear about your sweet cat, that is so tough. They are special friends. 💙
Thank you 💜
I'm sorry for the loss of your cay 😢 I hope you had a wonderful time at the concert. Happy stitching 💜
Thank you 💜
Tonight We Ride is GORGEOUS! I have a sad, sad start on that one!😂😂😂
Mine was a really sad start for a good long time last year before I got on a roll with it LOL. I had only the top of one building done for I don't even know how long
@@StoriesandStitches I can't wait to work on it some more!
I am intrigued by your puzzle board/mat. Where did you get it? We had a traumatic puzzle experience over Christmas, where my cat and dog teamed up and puzzle pieces were eaten. My son was quite upset he couldn't finish the puzzle.
Oh No!!!! That is terrible. I got mine from Mary Maxim (I live fairly close to the Canadian warehouse). But I have actually seen them around at games stores and online shops. They come in different sizes and styles as well. I really like it! I did a puzzle recently that it was too small for, but made it work. I have also had some terrible animal vs puzzle situations -not fun!!
🧚♀️💕
Sounds like you have a lot of exciting things coming in the future! Happy stitching 💜
It was so nice to sit with you and your mom at the retreat! But I didn’t even know you did Flosstube until after 🤣🤣🤣 I can’t believe that didn’t come up!
Haha! I know it just never came up! Thanks for visiting my flosstube :)
So Netflix has an option like the old Choose your own adventure " books?!
Do you mean the game I mentioned? Storyteller?
Been watching all your tubes now and I am a multi doer myself meaning I also do lot of different handcraft and are a gamer too. I have a question what pattern are you using for your orange blanket. I like the different progress and I like they are long so we have a chance to see what you are doing.Have a nice weekend
Thank you so much for watching :) I love meeting other crafters that are also gamers! The pattern I'm using for my Orange Blanket is "Quality Time" by "Fifty Four Ten Studio" I am really liking how it is stitching up.
I'm so glad you had a great time at Stitch North! I love seeing your progress! Happy stitching 💜
Thank you! 😊
💥🌹🥀🌻
Enjoyed seeing you again and seeing what you were cross stitching. I love seeing all of your haul. You have a lot of nice items. See you soon.
Thank you so much!
Dnd stories flosstubes?? I'm so curious!
Yes!! I'm still trying to figure it all out and whether it's actually going to WORK or not... but I am excited about the possibilities
Have fun at Stitch North!
Have a wonderful time at Stitch North.
Great progress! Happy stitching 💜
Aw I played Bear and Breakfast on release - I loved it! I never quite finished it, but it was so comfy and fun the whole time.
I have watched the movie Clue quite a few times. Tim Curry was fantastic in it. Today is Thursday and it is snowing here so I am working on Christmas ornaments today. I do have a pattern called Carrot Cake started and when we get a nice, sunny day I do stitch on it but it has not been really great weather here.
I know that feeling. I feel like every time it seems like the weather is getting nice here it goes back to yucky! I am so ready for some consistent sunshine and warmth!
I love the color you are using for Halloween at Hawk Run Hollow. What color is it? I hope spring brings some fresh life to your stitching bug. Happy stitching 💜
Thank you so much! I really need to write down the colour so I can remember t o tell people in the video. It is Haunted by Picture this plus. I think that one is on 16 count.
I love Dimensions Gold kits too. 😊 I'm excited to see how your northern lights one turns out.
Thank you :)
My family just went to see Clue live on stage…the Butler was fantastic and the rotating stage amazing. I hope you get to see it live. Lovely video…nicely clear speaking with terrific projects.
Thank you so much for your kind words :) Clue live sounds very cool. I didn't know they did that! I will definitely have to keep an eye out to see if it comes near me!
Great progress! Happy stitching 💜
