    Seeing your progress makes me happy! There's something so satisfying about watching your episodes and watching how the WIPs dewelop. Love the Castle Homecoming, but the Chameleon Illusion is absolutely STUNNING!

      Aw, thanks so much 😊 I love sharing my projects so I'm super happy you're finding it fun to watch 😄
      I have loved the colours of the chameleon and it's soooo close to a finish now! There are more in the same range that I also love, so another one could be on the cards 😜

      Thanks Leah 😊 I'm loving that fabric too...although lots of confetti on very teeny squares on dark fabric is a bit 😬 More new starts coming soon!! Maybe one that you have as well 😜

    Congrats on the Frosted Pumpkin finish! I haven't seen a finished one yet - your's is the first! Great job! I am stitching along with the "All things grow with love" mystery too... on Aida 18 count. It's so FUN! But goodness sakes you are fast and have made so much progress already!

    Cat you are not in the garden due to rain. I am not in the garden due to it being 37 degrees. I live in Australia. Your JWT project is something so different. It is a joy. I had to look up Climbing goat. Love the patterns.

    • @catkinandlillie
      @catkinandlillie  7 месяцев назад

      Gardening is rather weather dependent! 🙄 Still raining here! Not that I'd enjoy 37 degrees either 😂
      I'm glad you enjoyed seeing the JWST SAL and I have to say I've been tempted by some of the other Climbing Goat designs too but need to resist 😂

    The dragon 🐉 looks amazing! You’re literally painting with sewing and that’s amazing at just 14% The telescope fabric also looks wonderful

    • @catkinandlillie
      @catkinandlillie  7 месяцев назад

      Thank you 😊 Painting with sewing is really a good way to describe it, especially for this dragon design, and it's amazing seeing it grow 😄 I'm so happy the telescope SAL fabric turned out to be so perfect and I've been enjoying putting in some stitches 😄🪡

    The bear finish looks adorable! ❤ Sorry to hear that you ran out of floss so close to the end of your chameleon. I hope you're able to get more soon. It's been a start heavy time for me too. 😂 Have a great vacation!! 😊 I was taking a morning walk around my neighborhood and I saw 504 on a mailbox and I thought, that's a great DMC color! 😂

    • @catkinandlillie
      @catkinandlillie  7 месяцев назад +1

    Amazing progress. That chromatic dragon is going to be so breathtaking. And the chameleon is beautiful.
    I love the castle homecoming. So precious and I’m finding myself tempted to give a SAL a go. I only have two WIP projects currently and I always get so excited seeing other people’s WIPS, so it makes me want to start more but I know I will get overwhelmed if I have a bunch that are part finished. It seems like a nice controlled way to introduce another WIP though as you’re doing it in smaller more bite size chunks.
    Oh wow! My sister in law works for LFC as well. Incidentally, I’ve recently gotten her into the cross stitching as well 😂 and now one of my friends has said she wants a hobby and is interested in cross stitch. Feel like I’m recruiting people to the stitchy side, one by one 😂
    By the way, I absolutely love how you call him “lovely husband Dr Tim” makes me smile every time 🥰

    • @catkinandlillie
      @catkinandlillie  7 месяцев назад

      Thank you so much 😊 I definitely recommend a SAL and there are lots of gorgeous ones out there. It's fun to stitch something at the same time as lots of other people and I generally find the manageable to keep up with...plus each section finish is a little win 😄
      I definitely think everyone has a number of WIPs that they are comfortable with, whether that's 1 or 100! It's good to know where your own level is so you don't get overwhelmed. I think mine is probably around 10-ish, not all being actively stitched, but I prefer WIPs to be finished in fairly short order, not hanging around for years.
      It's so great you've been able to introduce others to the joy of cross stitch...and nice to have stitchy buddies 😄

    Lovely video Kat. Being only recently subscribed I’ve got lots to catch up on.
    So many lovely projects. The mermaid is just dreamy and will be the most beautiful finish one day.
    Do you plan any more episodes with your mum? I really enjoyed that one.
    Also, where do you buy Coffee Craft fabrics?
    Happy stitching,
    Margaret

      You need to join the private Facebook group for Coffee Craft Fabrics and then there are specific days every now and then when fabrics are available for purchase. Here's the link facebook.com/groups/2664682563750014

    I just purchased chromatic dragon. I also ordered 25ct Lugana, just waiting for it to arrive. Are you stitching 1 over 1 or 2 over 1 with your project? So glad to see how someone else’s project is progressing. Love your channel!

    • @catkinandlillie
      @catkinandlillie  7 месяцев назад

      Thank you 😊
      Yay!! I hope you'll love the dragon 😄 I'm stitching 1 over 1 on 25 count. The coverage is a tiny bit better with 2 strands but I find it too bulky to work with; it's just no fun for me.
