I am Bay City but work in Saginaw,and would love to be part of a stitchy meetup. When I heard you mention Saginaw, I was Wait, what!?! I was at A Stitch ‘n time yesterday! We stitch similar things. Love your video!

Congrats on the move! It's so much work moving, as you said. Here's hoping the other house sells quickly! We've finally hit the spot where I can start moving back into my rooms after the paint and carpet remodel. Love your stitching! Love the Christmas ornaments! 💜💜💜

Katrina!!! It’s been way too long since I’ve watched your videos and I apologize for that. I’m so glad you finally got to move. I could not imagine that much commuting. I’m about 5 minutes from my school. Loved seeing your WIPs. I haven’t worked on full coverage since the HAED debacle regarding the new colors. It’s made me scared of them. Which is pathetic. This is the day is so beautiful! I love those colors ❤ Your scrapbook idea is so cool! How do you mount the stitching? I really like Autumn Rules! Need to look it up. With not having watched Flosstube in years, I have missed so many popular nice designs. Oh my gosh, Winter Wienerland is so cute!!! And Starbarks. So cleaver. Also love that Winter Quaker. I don’t own any Primrose Cottage but need to! I don’t have that 2023 Shannon Christine but I do have the 2024 one that I haven’t started yet. Let me know when you start the 2023 one and maybe we can SAL it together? Let me know. No pressure. You know I have a billion projects. I love the speckling on the shawl you’re making! Who is the dyer? It’s so consistent! What is the 25 in 25? Because this sounds like something I need to do If you don’t mind my asking, how much was your cart? I need to replace my craft table and I love the look and design of your cart. Thanks for sharing a tour of your craft room :)

Love your progress on your wips. Love your craft room. Happy stitching!

So good to see you my friend. Love your craft room. Have fun in your room.

I loved your video and your projects. I've just discovered your Flosstube! Your craft room looks amazing 😍 Happy stitching!

Congrats on your move, Katrina! Glad to see you again and hear about what you’ve been up to the past few months. You’ve been busy! Loved the craft room tour at the end, you seem very good at organizing! I struggle with figuring out organization that works for me so it helps me to see what others are doing. Thanks for the update and WIP parade and I’ll look for your next update in a month or two! -Leah

I am excited to find you! Loved and feel the same way about retiring from teaching. Getting close and very ready!

A new house!! So fun!

Your other place sounds perfect for us. We want a barn. That's one of the things we intend to add if it doesn't come with whatever new property we finally buy. Barn/detached garage. Same difference, right? I love Irony is the opposite of wrinkly. But also, I dislike laundry and have considered becoming a nudist just to avoid doing it. That lasted about 12 seconds. I dislike being nude. I love threadworx!!!! Oh, I started Sumatran Lace recently. Love the craft room!!! ~J

So many things to love about this video. ❤

Hi Katrina! So glad to see you and hear about your move. I know you are glad for a shorter commute! I love all your lighthouses! Every time I see a picture of a lighthouse or a figurine I think about your cross stitch project of the lighthouses! Thank you for sharing your craft room, such a nice space to have your things in and spend time doing projects! Take care friend.🍁

Nice to see you and your new craft room. I can foresee many great projects made in there. ~ elisa 🦋

Hi Katrina! I can't believe I somehow missed you walking into Panera but so glad you came! Love the Autumn piece and your finishing idea sounds great. I know moving is a hassle but sounds like you guys found an awesome location. Love your craft room organization, especially the tool box. I like my house but I don't have an extra bedroom for stitchy stuff, but luckily I have a lot of closet space, and no man to share it with. Lol. See you next meet up!

So great to see you again Katrina and getting an update on your WIPs. So glad you are happy with the new house and all unpacked. It is always a pain in the neck to get unpacked and figure out where everything goes or goes out the door! 😂 I love your new craft room and I have to ask where you got that cool tool box with the extension counter? It looks like something I could definitely use! Happy stitching my friend. 😁🪡🪡

Love for finishes and all your progress on your crafting items. Happy stitching and crafting!

All your stitching is looking great. I'm so glad you didn't get rid of all of your paper crafting stuff like you had once considered. You do such pretty work.

Hey Katrina! Happy early birthday! Our April is abnormally warm so we might get rain but no snow. It’s going to be *70* degrees next weekend, if you can believe that. Our winter sounds the same as you described. Anyway, I am loving your lighthouse project. It’s so cool to have the info sheet with the stitching… I bet she’ll love the whole collection. And yes, why the heck are washers/dryers so often shoved in basements like afterthoughts? One of my biggest pet peeves. Hope you have a great birthday week and lots of crafting time! Hugs! -Leah

Thanks for the update - always a delight! I sent you a message on IG to try to connect on GoodReads. We share a similar taste in books, so I’d love to friend you over there, but I couldn’t find your account. 😊📚

Nice progress Katrina and I just love the lighthouse scrapbook idea!! The lighthouses turn out so cool too! I've emailed to get more info about the retreat. It'd be nice to get together with stitchy friends!!

AND your reading journal!!! LOVE IT ALL! Lol

Ah! I love allll your projects! Your stitching, your knitting, your paper crafting, you Bible cover! Everything is gorgeous!

Hello Katrina! I love the scrap book of the lighthouses, it’s going to be a treasure! Oh my goodness, the Bible covers are gorgeous! Such pretty cards! You know I always like the book suggestions! Take care.

Love the wedding sampler!! And you’re going to have so much drum at the cross stitch retreat!❤. I can’t remember if the fabrics were from you, but those two main fabrics on your Bible covers are fabrics I have cut and made into hexis for my Hexi quilt! HAPPY EARLY BIRTHDAY 🎈🎈🎈🎈🎈🎈🎈🎈🎈🎈

So happy to see you! I enjoyed stitching with you. I’m glad Laura (Stitching by the Shore) was able to help you with your project. She stitches so many different types of patterns. As for memories of the last snowfall, in 2019, it snowed 5 inches on May 20th. I remember because it’s my father’s birthday. I live in Colorado.😊 Happy Stitching! - Valerie

Wonderful to see you again, and your beautiful work. Love your cards.

So wonderful catching up with you! Your nieces wedding sampler is gorgeous! What a heartfelt gift!!!!! And the ornaments! What an amazing aunt you are!!! Your bag is going in the mail this week! Hugs!!!❤❤❤

Love your progress on your beautiful wips. Happy stitching!

Hello sweet friend!!! Wonderful video!!! I absolutely love your Victorian bookstore!!!! It’s stunning!!! What a heartfelt gift for your niece and your Mom!!! So very thoughtful!!! I LOVED when you put your hand up to show Lake Huron! The best!❤❤

lol sorry not sorry for leading you to BookTube!

Also, lol, is that an iPad mini? I’m trying to convince myself that is a worthwhile purchase even though I have an old iPad Pro.

Ah!!! Katrina I didn’t even know you had a channel! Your work is gorgeous! Cross-stitch, knitting, planning, DIGITAL planning. We are soul sisters!

Hey Katrina! So how much snow did you guys get? I think we got about 5" down here. Good to see your stitchy progress!

Your restart looks pretty great! It feels very fall to me. The third ball might be okay if you use it on the very ends of the shawl where the rows are the longest. It might not stripe... It might flash or pool though. Sorry, can't help with the apps. I'm an old fashioned paper girl.

Hey Katrina!!!! 👋🏻. Keep going on Pandemic!! I’m working on Winterbourne while watching you. The knit stockings are really cool! And I’m glad you got a day off of work due to snow ❄️

I'm impressed companies will come out to cut trees in the snow. I agree with everything you said about Dimensions kits. So pretty, but not the most fun. Also, I'm really really really really sorry if I didn't thank you appropriately for the card you sent. I love your cards so much. I've really been on the struggle bus lately and I've dropped the ball on being a good human.

It is so good to see you again friend. I always enjoy watching you. You set my mind in motion about making a WIPGO board for my Cards. I am big into cards, and that is an awesome idea. Have a great January!!!

It is great to see a video from you and all your wonderful WIPs. The Victorian house is beautiful! Thank you for sharing your WIPs. Happy New Year!!

It’s good to see you again! I hope you enjoy your crafts this year and that the planning tools you’ve chosen will help you make the most of your time. Enjoy being cozy in the snow! Hopefully you won’t need to go out in it much. ❄️

It is so nice to have you pop up on my floss tube feed. Showing up once in a while is fine. We all have busy lives. For your lighthouse book, may I suggest Laura, at Stitching by the Shore on RUclips. She has tutorials on scrap booking some of her stitching. I haven’t tried it yet, but I plan to in the future. Happy New Year!

Always good to spend time with you Katrina! I like your idea about the lighthouse pieces for your mother in law, especially if she doesn’t have a lot of wall space, and I’m sure she would enjoy the history of each lighthouse. Good idea about the shawl, I think those 2 yarns will go together well. I always enjoy seeing what you have been reading but I did see your post on Instagram. Take care and be safe in that snow!

Hi, i loved seeing all your WIPS. I think the light house album for your mom is a fantastic idea!

So good to see you back!! The autumn piece is pretty! The purple bookstore house.... love the purple.. but that roof is stunning!!! I love the idea for the lighthouse book! Can't wait to see the finished shawl, and the Mrs.Claus stocking. I use Good Notes with my cross stitch patterns. I love it, the marking off stitches as I go is perfect! No paper patterns to keep track of! I too use to be get your work done before you play, but over the last few years, that has gone out the window. I think once it was just John and I in the house, I didn't have to keep up with the boys, so I now have more me time. I am so not liking Mother Nature right now! She could have spread out the "let's get Michigan back to a wintery January", over the course of the month, and not all at once in a matter of hours! I have big plans for Saturday that I don't want the winter wonderland to mess with! In GR we have 8-14" predictions, and have about 3-4 inches here right now that we got in the same time frame as you. I was happy with the green Christmas though. Happy stitching and can't wait to see your progress next time! 💜💜

Hi Katrina! Nice to see you again. I was stitching on Arc of White while we visited and I’m happy to report I’m over half way finished. I really like your lighthouse book idea for your mom. There’s a flosstuber called Stitching By The Shore, and she does paper crafting and did some tutorial videos about how to turn your cross stitch finishes into a scrapbook. What you were describing sounds just like that, so I recommend finding her channel and looking at her stitching scrapbook playlist. Let me know if you need help finding it and I will get a link. Stay safe with the incoming storm, and remember your ABC’s if you do have to go to work. 😉 Happy new year and happy stitching! -Leah

Hooray for finishes! They always feel good. The knitting is beautiful. I feel you on having time for yourself. That's why I get up so early. That's me time and I refuse to give it up. 😅

Love your finishes and your progress on your wips. Happy crafting!

Hey Katrina! 👋🏻. Love your library stitch!

I enjoyed your video, as always. I'm in awe that you are knitting that stocking using the old instructions! It's looking good already. Thanks for sharing your lovely projects!

So good to see you again!! I’ve been missing you! I think you do what every mother/wife does… your time is not your own. I think I can tell you, that it will change when you both are retired and everyone is out of the house. At least that did for me…. Who am I kidding, now I have other commitments!! Just hang in there friend…

I see you've had some good tips on getting a loose bind off. I'd like to add that I'll got up two needles sizes for a loose bind off. If you aren't using an interchangeable set, just put the large needle in your right hand for the bind-off. Your striping yarn with slowly stop striping as you add stitches, it'll probably start to pool in a somewhat zig-zag fashion before hitting a distribution where the colors don't line up at all. Although, it might not get to that point depending on the stitch count near the end of the shawl. It'd probably be better as socks or a hat, truthfully.
