Nicole! Your cross stitch projects are just so adorable/beautiful!! The flower garden is just so lovely and charming and cheerful and I know it represents lots of time using a beautiful old fashioned skill. I’m sure you will inspire many to keep hand stitching in its various forms alive and well! I’m proud of your beautiful work and talent!! 🥰❤️
WOW!!! All those finished projects....good job! Love the cabin in the wreath. The Santa is cute too. Maybe you can re-enforce the bottoms with packing tape for your project envelopes. Keep up the good work. 😊❤🪡🧵
I've enjoyed your flosstube so much! Your journal is lovely! I like your 2025 goals! Your projects look beautiful! I believe, if I remember correctly, someone explaining that some fabrics shrink during the dying process. That may be why your fabric seems smaller. Enjoy your stitching! 😊
I stitched Christmas at the cabin 2 or 3 years ago when the magazine first came out. I love how it turned out, confetti and all 😂. I use fabric and floss I find at the bins and thrift stores.
You’re not imagining that your PTP Aida seems smaller than most 18 counts. Hand dyed fabrics almost always shrink up slightly and then become a little smaller than non-hand dyed fabrics. Love all your projects, particularly your family sampler!
Nicole, can you remind me what you will do with your mini pillows? Tier trays? I think your work is amazing. I crochet and I recently did a project with alot of counting and I didn't really find it that relaxing
Hi! I will put the mini pillows for each season into a dough bowl to display out in my living room. It looks really country and charming :) If I remember, maybe I can put a picture in my next video :)
I was going to send you my sable floss but it is the new dye lot 🙁. I'm also an aida stitcher and prefer 18 and 20 count (20ct is hard to find tho). I've also started tea dyeing my own fabric. My next experiment will be snow dyeing some old 14ct aida with color.
That is so kind of you to think of me. Thank you even it isn’t the right color, I appreciate the thought! What is snow dyeing?? I’ll have to google it!

Beautiful, I hope to learn one day

That’s a good idea for the in between! Or maybe some fun duct tape 😊 they have all different prints!
Hi Nicole. You have been busy stitching! The Flea Market Flowers piece turned out just beautiful, and I can’t wait to see it framed.
Have a good week💕
You as well!
Glad to see an updated floss tube! You have been busy!
It’s been a busy few months! Thanks for watching!

Someone else said the same! I had no idea and that makes so much sense! Thanks for the info!

You are brave doing all that confetti! It was pretty as designed but I couldn’t bring myself to do it!
Love all the projects
You have inspired me to start stitching again
Do it! My advice is to start with something small so you can finish and feel accomplished! Happy stitching! Let me know if you start!
Restart* :)

I love this channel….
I’m glad to hear!! Thank you for your support!
Nice work. I need to start my projects too.
You can do it! One stitch at a time 😊

Dyed fabric sometimes shrinks a little that can be why it seems a smaller count
Interesting! I didn’t know that and I haven’t done much on dyed fabrics. Thanks for the info!
