    Love your finishes! I do think the trim looks nice around the red fabric on the sled.

    As a retired teacher (elementary , 2nd and 3rd grade for 35 years) I know Miss Friend will treasure that cross stitch! I have many cherished items from children that I display proudly. It is wonderful your son loved her! I remember how it broke my heart when kids would cry the last days of school because they would miss me (and I think I missed them much more!) and we'd have the "each year you move on, " etc. talk. I am blessed that many former students are now friends and we go out to lunch! LOVE the sled...Yes, to the red trim. The perfect bow and bell or whatever will come to you as you think about it! And Strawberry Fields...gorgeous! Hope things ease for you all soon...you have certainly been confined for a long time!

    God Bless your Sister for all that she's doing at this time! 🙏 I vote yes, to add that cute trim around the edge of your Christmas Sled piece and yes to adding a bow or Christmas greenery on the top! It turned out great! 🎄⛄🎅

  • @annettehubbatd7571
    @annettehubbatd7571 3 года назад

    Yes, put the trim around it! It made it really pop! Super cute! You can glue it with either tacky glue or hot glue! Good job!

  • @lorrainebergstrom9391
    @lorrainebergstrom9391 3 года назад

    Your Home For Christmas finish is so beautiful. I vote for adding that trim around the matte, and would add a thin jute rope for the handles, and perhaps a thin wispy jute bow with a small amount of greenery and a couple of small rusty bells to decorate the top. I wouldn’t add anything too fussy or big as less is more and it’s such a beautiful piece. The teacher gift you made is just precious. I love all your wips and your stitching is amazing. Thank you for another great video. Sending love and light to your RT sister. Stay well!

  • @amandahoying9939
    @amandahoying9939 3 года назад

    Yes! Put the cording around the red fabric, a small piece of greenery, bow(?)and bells would be super cute! Something the stays within the handle size!

    Remember, starting late is not an issue, but NOT starting is. I listened to your podcast and it resonated with me, despite my being in my 70s, thank you for sharing.
    Have a lovely stitching time, in the midst of our lockdowns. In Quebec, a curfew is in effect since February I want to say... feels like eons now, and that weighs on me more so than the lockdowns.
    Thank goodness for our stitching, and for flosstubers such as you enabling us in all kind of fun 🤩
    Cheers for now from Montreal, stay well 🤗 and safe 😷

    So sweet of you to give your non-stitchy sister a shout out. How wonderful that she jumped in to help out during this horrible pandemic. Sad to hear how bad it is in Canada right now.
    Yes, I would add the trim around your adorable sleigh finish. It really adds to it. Have you watched Javagirlstitches on flosstube? She has wonderful finishing ideas. She is on Instagram also. Christi may inspire you on your finishing!

  • @nevadastitcher
    @nevadastitcher 3 года назад

    Yes on the bakers twine trim! ❤️Maybe even a piece of it or something slim around the top piece too. Trims hide all the imperfections!! ❤️ I love the whole sled design with that charming sampler! I would probably add a bow of some sort to the top to break up the white a little bit. I’m so sorry Ontario/Canada continues with this awful plague of covid. 😥

  • @rachelbrown7876

  • @margaretyoder3007
    @margaretyoder3007 3 года назад

    Your sleigh is gorgeous, and your finishes are really nice. I love your projects… Especially the apple tree Sampler. I laughed out loud when your husband asked why you keep getting stuff. You have to explain to him about the stitch fairy.

  • @stichingwithnancy6107
    @stichingwithnancy6107 3 года назад

    Hi there great show today. Good for your sister great for her. It does need the thing around the sleigh and a bow at the top. And two hours for making it that’s not bad takes a lot more to do them up than it does to make them.

  • @cameronsarahe
    @cameronsarahe 3 года назад

    Absolutely add the trim around the Christmas piece. I agree the top needs something. You could do one of the rows of candy or holly and add it to the top rail- it might be cute if you use the baker’s twine as a hanger.

  • @bjbullock8792
    @bjbullock8792 3 года назад

    I like the red & white trim around the sled piece. Also you could add some candy canes with the bow.

    Hugs to your sister! RTs work so hard in normal times, I can't even imagine how it is now. My daughter was a sub teacher for K, Grade 1 and Grade 2 before the pandemic.

She’s now been doing online schooling since COVID started but she’s a sophomore in high school and pretty much does her own thing, thank goodness! Lol. And ty, I now have “stitching the night away 🎶 🎵 “ stuck in my head. 😂 Love ya, my friend. 💜

    I’m ellesnaps and I almost fell off the couch when you talked about Sam Heughan being in her CrossFit class!! 😳😍❤️ Love my CrossFit class... but our awesomeness would dial up to a 12 or 13 if he came to class! 😂 (on a serious note, I’ve lost over 119# by working out and changing my eating habits, it’s been one of the best things I’ve ever done for myself. Knowing what it’s done for me I’m all about encouraging others in any kind of fitness, I don’t care what it is, yoga, biking, running, walking, mobility, etc., I’m always going to encourage people to keep moving.)
    I have the Reindeer Roundup too! It’s in my short stack for this year!
    Stay strong with the online learning, at some point we’ll hit normal again and tell hilarious stories about it... that’s my hope anyway.
    All the hearts for your sister! May she be protected with health and strength in her RT position.
    Have a great week! Happy stitching!!

      My lucky day is right! Happy to hear from a fellow Kathleen! I have decided to make sure I give Little Women at least 3 days in between videos so that I am always making progress on it. It is a beast of a chart but so fun to stitch and will be so beautiful when it is done.

    Home for Christmas looks so good! It’s sounds like your youngest and my son are the same age. My son’s JK teacher took a half year off last year and he was heart broken, but then Covid so it didn’t really matter anyways. Luckily she is his teacher again this year for SK so he is pretty happy!

  • @beckipugh9157
    @beckipugh9157 3 года назад

    Great video! Projects are coming along great, yes you should put the trim around the edge on the Home for Christmas,
    if it were mine I would go around it making the two raw ends meet at the top. You could put ribbon at the top of the project
    ( not at the very top) and then add some green sprigs to extend out to the edge of your corners you didn't like.
    I hope to get back to mine as when I saw yours I had FOMO and order the chart, put in down after a few mistakes,
    hoping to work on it again soon. Have a good stitchy week!

    • @stitchuationnormal7082
      @stitchuationnormal7082  3 года назад
