So sorry to hear about your experiences about the bank - they are scammers. It is their way of making more money - skinning hard working people alive. And we paid to bail them out. Had to say that. On a lighter note, love your projects and had fun stitching with you:) Your property is gorgeous!!!
Weather update for U.K.- all a bit pants really. I’m in Derbyshire and we’ve not seen much sunshine at all this summer. I don’t like hot weather so I’m not mad that we haven’t seen the heat wave like last summer, but a bit of friendly bright sunshine wouldn’t go amiss. Just hoping that this Monday stays dry as it’s August bank hol and I’ve promised to take my kids to a new Jurassic outdoor crazy golf thing that’s just opened up near me and I really don’t want to get p*ss wet through as well as it costing me and arm and a leg to do so. 😂.Hope your salad and wine was good xx
Hi Amanda, I hope the weather is good for bank holiday, however we all know bank holidays are notorious for being crappy weather. Sounds like it will very an amazing day if the weather holds out. Love Derbyshire. Reminds me of Mr Darcy xx
Thank you Mariam. It's ALOT! it's also a lot of maintenance too! But hopefully in the not too distant future, I will be able to maintain it myself when I can afford some equipment xx
First of all, thank you for this new stitch with me video - as usually, you are the only flosstuber that has a productive effect on my stitching, this time I was stitching on a green dress of a fairy. But so you you know, I would also love to stitch with you on previously seen projects, like that amazing one of the yellow dahlias. I enjoyed seeing the photos of your property, especially that trail between the lines of trees, on this heat it seemed to bring a cool fresh breeze. Best of luck on using all the opportunities of your property for your business, you will succeed in achieving your goals! And I must also say hello to your cats and that window-knocking cardinal , even though they were not present this time. Ah, and I also enjoyed you talking about food, especially about that British delight - cookie and tea, so much that you made me made my own cup of tea with a small cookie, because I do feel mself a bit English while spoiling myself with this small pleasure. :) Enjoy the rest of August, and happy stitching!
Hi lovely, what a lovely comment. Thank you! Yes Red is still around, bless him. He is gorgeous. As much as he annoys the hell out of me at times where he spends HOURS at a time banging my window 🤣I would definitely miss him if he wasn't around He's kinda part of the furniture now. The cats were all out too, so it was just me on my own. I do love a cuppa tea and a piece of cake. Problem is, thres only me, so I would have to eat the whole cake. Love baking for other people though. :-) looking forward to having staff so I can spoil them 🙂 I will bring out Dahlia again next month as I love that project xx Happy Stitching xx
@@hollythecrossstitchaddict83 :) Well, from time to time we deserve to spoil ourselves, so we can have the whole cake. :) Can't wait to see the Dahlia project again and, before that, the end of August video!
Fabulous pictures at the end more green than I thought looking fantastic. Will be lovely when your friend comes over from England. USA Banks lol.... my Niece lives in USA but her Mum has retired to UK so my Niece does the USA tax for her and the rest gets done in UK. They can't tax you twice so where you live is where you get taxed. Great idea on taking in horses for quarantine they will be more comfortable living with you as it's clear you are an animal lover and not just a business lady. For you next stitch with me perhaps the stamped cross stitch would be easier to do when talking the piece you where working on is harder to do as in keeping track of. Hope your friends horse is alright after the leg injury sounds terrible. I love ginger cake as well as carrot cake, wheaten bread and soda as well. You would be better to make your own cake although not sure on the flour I think it will be the same case as the cheese just not getting the same stuff. Looking forward to your next video.
Hi Daisyrea, thank you! Georgia is very very green. That is why I love it so much. I couldn't move somewhere like Arizona or New Mexico (although beautiful), I love the more green states as it is similar to home. I think quarantine would be great. I absolutely love horses and treat them all like my own. I run a business, but money has always been secondary to care, and I'm proud of that. I haven't worked on my stamped xstitch for a while actually, so that might be a good go-to next time 😀 I do tend to bake my own cakes. Infact, I bought a pack of lemons so I should do a lemon drizzle cake really. Absolutely love lemon drizzle cake 🥰 Working on Rise of the Witches today which I love. What are you working on? Xx
Hi Holly I am working on S Luca Natures wonderland it's trees lol. While watching your video just finished crochet socks they are thicker than knitted but I like them. I did buy a tote bag cross stitch kit to make a bag it is a picture of an owl also stamped. I have never worked a stamped cross stitch before so I thought I would give it a go as years ago I thought they looked like a cartoon image but now they seem to have made a big improvement on the over all picture. I put into youtube finished stamped cross and I oh they look good.@@hollythecrossstitchaddict83
@@hollythecrossstitchaddict83 yes me too! I’ve finished 2 minis by her the fortune teller and the reader also one of my wips is brush with magick mini 😁😍
Love your stitch with mes and this chart is so amazing. I had to buy the new version when it came out and it's sitting in my stash along with 50 million other charts, LOL. Get yourself some shrimp to go on that salad, so yummy.
Hi Holly, I watched whilst stitching with my fan going and the sound of your air con…..I think we are wimps in the UK as the temperature is no where near what you are having, we have a normal UK summer, hot, cool, dry, wet….difficult to plan an outside event!! Love the pictures of your property. Take care x
Hi Pat, thank you. Yes it's just hot hot hot here. I love my aircon, but it is so blooming loud!. Wouldn't be without it though, it would be over 40 degrees in the camper within minutes xx
Great seeing you again. I don't mind watching stitchalongs of a prior stitch. I like seeing progress. I also like new stuff to. So it comes done to what you want to do since its you doing the work. Hey property is look in good. Did you bale the grass hay up when it was dried out.? We did small square bales this year. And found lots of buyers for it for the size and cheap price. Seems like people who do small animals want the smallers bales. Take care see you next month. Hope things keep moving along for you.Have fun with your friends most of all.
Hi Kris, thank you for your lovelt comment. I don't at the moment, however, this maybe something I look at in the future. Good to know about the projects xx
Quarteening sounds like the way to go Holly. Have the birds disappeared? Have a great time with your best friend from UK😀.. Could she bring some herbs in with her or is that not allowed? You stitch on what you want in your SWM's, personally i join you to hear how lifes treating you(ya i'm nosey lol). Your land looks like its a decent size, it will be interesting to see how it develops Stay safe and well🤗🇬🇧
Thank you, yes bird is still here which is great! He is really lovely. Thank you, I have a decent amount of land which is great, and now it looks pretty again xx
I so enjoy the horsey/animal chat! Hope you enjoy the visits from friends - sounds like a good time! Thanks for sharing the pictures of your property - how many acres do you own?
@@hollythecrossstitchaddict83 ooo, very nice! Lovely to have all those trees on the property, too. You've managed to set yourself up for a promising future - very impressive! 🙂
@@jennypollard8739 thank you. Just re-read my comment, which doesn't make any sense what so ever. Maybe I should stay off the wine 🤣 But the greenery here is stunning. I have neighbour's but they are ages away and because I a treeline that goes around the outside of my whole property, I can't see anyone else which I love xx
I do a bit of both. When I have loads to do I highlight after I've completed them. When I have loads of confetti, I highlight as I go. There isn't any set rules for marking off pattern keeper xx
@@nete1209 I like having a big area where there isn't alot of confetti, and marking off loads and then seeing the jump from one stitched number to another. Really sad I know 😅.
Unfortunately, that is how overdraft works in the USA. I refuse it on all my accounts. Im not paying 40 dollars every time a payment hits my account, and it's not there. I think it's worthless to use because you end up even more in the negative.
Thanks for the stitch with me! Glad to hear your building plans are moving forward. Your property is lovely.
Hi Julie, thank you for the kind comment. I am very lucky to live where I do 🥰

Seems you would have less trouble with errors if you would just grid your fabric 😬
The fabric is gridded already. I just struggle to talk and concentrate at the same time that's all 😄
Sorry I couldn’t tell in the video
So do you highlight them all then wait until you have completed them all to mark as completed? I mark off a few at a time as I complete them.
I do a bit of both. When I have loads to do I highlight after I've completed them. When I have loads of confetti, I highlight as I go. There isn't any set rules for marking off pattern keeper xx
@@hollythecrossstitchaddict83 no definitely not... I just wondered what your preference was.
