Audrey, I absolutely loved that wee little sampler you are doing from Scotland. It is absolutely gorgeous. Those colors just pop on there. You’re doing a great job!
Thank you so much! And thanks for watching! ☺️
Hello Audrey, Just discovered your channel, thanks to Brenda and Laura. Really enjoying your videos and I'm very impressed with how far down the stitching rabbit hole you have gone in such a short time! I was also at Sampler Symposium this January and wish I would have taken the time to greet more stitchers. The entire weekend was pretty intense and overwhelming, so hope to meet you at a future event! I've enjoyed watching your progress on Hannah Campbell. I have one of the kits and hope to get to her in the near future. Right now, I'm closing in on a finish of the Smith Sampler. It's a beauty!
I am very thankful to Brenda and Laura for sending so many people my way and thanks to you too for popping over to my channel! It definitely would have been nice to connect at SS but there were so many people there! I'm sure I missed out on meeting a lot of wonderful stitchers. I am tentatively planning on going again next year so maybe I'll see you there! Good luck on the Smith Sampler! You're right, she's gorgeous! Happy stitching! 😊
Your stitching of Ann Ogston is simply stunning 😍 Salted Caramel is my favorite linen of all time, I have so many projects on that fabric ❤
Yes, it is a gorgeous linen! Thankfully I’ll have enough left for another sampler. But which one I don’t know! 😅 Thanks so much for watching! 😊
I loved watching your video. Ann is gorgeous, I really need to get her started.
Thank you, Terri! Ann is beautiful and I love the bright colors. Can’t wait to get her finished! Thanks for watching! 😊
Tout est très beau, je suis sous le charme 🤩!! J’ai finalement acheté le Carmelle Azzopardi, ce sera mon 1er HATS. À bientôt. Laurent
Oui, je l’ai vu! C’est magnifique, no? Et j’aime bien ton idée d’utiliser un autre couleur pour Carmelle 😊 Je ne sais pas comment dire en français, alors - Happy Stitching! À bientôt!
All of your HATS designs are so inspiring! Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for watching and for your kind words! ❤️
Thank you for sharing your beautiful stitching. Very striking stitching!
Thank you so much for stopping by! I'll have a new video up this coming weekend with more progress on the projects I showed in my last video. 😊
Wow am I impressed with the 46and 56 count. Beautiful
Thank you so much! I love how my stitches look on the higher counts so I’ll continue with it as long as my eyes allow 😅 Thanks for watching!
Great video Audrey, was so inspiring seeing your samplers, makes me want to stitch every single one of them 😂 I may just do that. ❤
Thank you so much! I hope you do! I just live HATS and can’t get enough of them. Thanks for watching and happy stitching to you! 😊
Great video! Hannah Campbell is gorgeous. All your WIPs look amazing. Have fun in FL!
Hannah Campbell is definitely a beauty! Worth the effort too but I’ll be glad when she’s done 😅 Thank you for watching! 😊
Audrey, do you have chickens? No you have geese! Haha!!
The HATS were all wonderful! But I loved Hannah❤ I just received a kit with 30 something linen. I'm gonna give it a go. Bifocals. I don't have a good magnifier but I'd love a Petoky!
What color is that grass? It's so pretty!
I wish I could meet you in St. Pete!
Your stitching and HATS parade was wonderful to see. And hello from another Audrey, a lover of anything stitching and I am especially enjoying cross stitch again. And a huge fan of all motorsport, especially the Supercars here is Australia, Scotty Mac in IndyCar and Shane VanGisbergen in Nascar and GT racing. And a huge thankyou to Brenda and Laura for 'introducing' me to you. ❤🏎
Hello, Audrey! Stitching and motorsport, what a wonderful combination, right? I shared your comment with my husband and he loved it too! If you’re interested in the IndyCar Radio feed (indycar.com/radio) you should hear Ryan on air this weekend. The St Pete race is always a fun one and I’m glad I get to go again. Not a lot of time for stitching but the racing is great! And I do love Scott! Thanks for watching! Happy stitching! ❤️
Hi Audrey I’ve finally found you after hearing a lot about you from Brenda and Laura. Your stitching is amazing and on 56 count too! When you showed Hannah Campbell I thought I have so got to get mine out. I have just a little start. And loved hearing the geese 💜🥰💜 Maria from UK
Brenda and Laura are wonderful and very kind to recommend my videos! I am very lucky to know them. 😊 I encourage you to get out your Hannah Campbell, she is well worth the effort! Can’t wait to have her on my wall. Thanks for watching, Maria! 😊
Lovely work! Just subscribed as Brenda & Laura said to STOP their video and come on over! LOL.
Those ladies are lovely! I am very lucky to know them and thankful to you for popping over to my channel. Happy stitching! ❤️
Well you just made me want to stitch all the HATS as fast as I can! Excellent video ❤
Thank you! ☺️
I love hearing the red-winged blackbirds, geese and wildlife in the background of your videos. It’s so relaxing. It would be wonderful to stitch with the sights and sounds of your location. 🥰
I also love Wallace and Gromit, as well as Shaun the Sheep! ❤
We have a pond behind our house and it attracts a lot of wildlife which makes for good bird watching! Very lovely background for stitching 😊 Thank you for watching and very glad to know another Aardman Animation lover!
Another great video! So many beautiful creations!
Thank you so much for watching! Can't wait to get some of these things framed and finished and hopefully share that with you guys soon 😊
I got my velke a couple years ago and had to wait 12 months. So worth it though. I use it almost daily.
I love it and yes, it was definitely worth the wait but I’m glad it was only five months and not twelve! 😅
Have fun in St. Pete! I live there!
Thank you! We always have a good time at the race. Usually get too much sun but can't beat the views around the track! Thanks for watching! 😊
Oh that was wonderful! I love Hannah Campbell and am determined to stitch her one day, but thank you for the heads up on the over 1!
Yes, there is quite a bit of over one on her! I wouldn't necessarily shy away from 45 or 46 count but I would definitely get the surfine if you're using those higher count linens. But maybe go with a 36 or 40 and save yourself the headache 😂 Happy stitching!
Lovely video! Looking forward to watching more soon! I wonder how many wips you have now? LOL! Happy Stitching!
Haha more than I'd like but I love them all and it's taking a lot of willpower not start a million more! 😂 Thank you for watching! 😊
Your stitching is beautiful..Brenda and Laura recommended your video..just great
I am very thankful to Brenda and Laura for recommending my channel and thankful to you for popping by! Glad you enoyed. Thanks so much for watching! 😊
Great video! I started Ann Ogsten at symposium and you’ve inspired me to get her out stat!
I'm so glad! She is bright and beautiful. Can't wait to have her finished. I hope you love her as much as I do! ❤️
Wallace and Gromit is a big deal in the UK “cheese gromit”! And we have had a horrible, wet winter - but on a beautiful sunny day in flaming June there is nowhere more beautiful xxx
Cheese, Gromit! I was just talking to my kids last night about W&G. It's never not relevant lol. I hear that summers there are beautiful so hopefully I'll get to experience that soon! I'm ready for warm weather in general. Done with winter haha. Thank you so much for stopping by! 😊
Hi Audrey. Beautiful stitching I have The Words Of Wisdom box I have not started any of them yet... Jane Fiddes is oan my floor stand in the living room where I stitch after dinner I am oan the Turkey Work stitch for the grass. I am stitching oan a pierced and stitched Creative Embroidery Christmas card it will have decoupaged Penguins in the centre o the card while visiting with you today. Together we count.
Thank you for watching, Louisa, and sharing what you are stitching! Jane Fiddes is beautiful - she is definitely on my wishlist! Good luck to you on her and all your stitching and thanks for stopping by! 😊
You’re being so #mature 🤣. I’ve updated my 123 list in anticipation of Mother’s Day, etc., because I am buying all the Market releases through the year! I’m trying to see what I’ve got from last year that still needs to be finished, but that won’t stop me. Loved all your beautiful stitching. Of course you have to frame them! Sampler wall needs to happen, ya?
#mature today, at least! The system could break down tomorrow 😂 Can't wait for our SAL and the rest of my market pics!!! And yes, I keep thinking about my first sampler wall and where in the house I should start. I'll share photos when I get it going! ❤️
Love seeing the smalls! Look forward to seeing the Canadian sampler!
Thank you so much! I hope my market purchases come soon so I can share them on my next video. Thanks for watching! 😊
Your videos show lots of awesome patterns and stitching but personally, but I feel exhausted after watching this! Don’t you ever need a sip of water or a breather?🙂
The first thing I do as soon as I sign off is get a drink! I don't clean up until I've had a pick-me-up 😂 Thanks so much for sticking with me! I know these videos can be long! 😊
@@StitchStitchBead I do love your stitching though! No need to change any part of that. That is what keeps me coming back. We have the exact same taste in patterns. Job well done even though it is a bit overwhelming by the end!
Have you watched Nerissa's stitching life? She's on the other side of the world in New Zealand - but seems to have the same love if high count linen and samplers - that you do.
You are such a pleasure to watch, love your sweater great color for you. Love the frame stand, thank-you for the link to the stand. lovely progress on your stitching, love all your Samplers, I have never stitched on anything above 36 count fabric, you have inspired me to do so.
You have chosen such lovely designs to stitch. 56 count wow. Do you use a magnifier for stitching on a high-count fabric? just curious. I like Words Of Wisdom the corners are lovely.
Have a lovely week.
Enjoyed seeing your wips. What threads are you using for Ann Ogston? She is gorgeous!
Thank you! I am using 100.3 spooled silk from Au Ver A Soie for Ann. She should be released in about a year so everyone can enjoy her! 😊
You made me laugh when you said you had enough charts to stitch in a year. I am in my 60's and figure I have about 20 more stitching years ( with God's Blessing) and the number of charts I have in my stash I will not be able to stitch them all in that time.
My collection is growing and I know that one day my stash will be too much for one stitcher’s lifetime but that’s okay! It’s good to have options! 😊 Thanks for watching! I’m glad I made you laugh 😁
Me too! And 8m 65 ! Lol
Ditto! And some beautiful samplers from the 80’s on. Oh to have a stitchy spot in the afterlife….THST’S my idea of heaven!!!
Also, I’m almost 66!
I just discovered your videos, I really like it, now I am going to watch them all 😂 où as-tu appris à parler français? J’❤
Fair warning that my first videos were pretty rough! I'm still learning but hopefully improving 😅 But thank you for your kind words! Et j'ai appris le français au lycée mais je dois pratiquer parce que je suis rouillée Et mon mari et moi, nous allons en France encore cet été! 😬 Merci pour la question! Bonne journée! ❤️
What is the name of the stitching stand and where to buy it please?
It is a Potoky Cross Stitch Stand Mini and it comes in several different colors : www.vpotoky.com/products/mini-cross-stitch-stand-light-walnut-color
Where did you find the border pattern you used in the “Carmelle”?
I am stitching Carmelle Azzopardi just as charted so if there is a border or motif in that sampler you like I would recommend getting that chart. She’s gorgeous! Available on the Hands Across the Sea Samplers’ website 😊
Are you able to use the Potoky stand in your lap or is strictly for use at a table or floor stand?
I answered this on my latest video but wanted to make sure you knew that yes, you can indeed use this in lap. I have and it works great!
Can you use a Q Snap with the Potoky?
I believe that you can though I would ask Laura from Brenda and the Serial Starter. She uses a Q Snap and has a Potoky stand. I have only used a hoop in my stand but the grip does seem to open wide enough to receive a Q Snap. Hope this helps! 😊
Have you watched Nerissa's stitching life? She's on the other side of the world in New Zealand - but seems to have the same love if high count linen and samplers - that you do.
I will have to check her out! Thank you for the recommendation! ☺️
