    Congrats on the adorable dragons finish. They have the cutest patterns. So tempted...
    Omg! The racing snail stitchy kindness is lovely. I love that you are amassing a tiny collection of kindnesses.
    I hope you have a good time in CA.
    Hope Winston feels better for the next video.
    Have a great week ❄️

And the eliminated bakers still got stitches. Lovely stitching on the mermaid. SAGA is one of my favorites, and looks beautiful. I’m now caught up with all your videos, and you’re not going to be here next week! Enjoy your trip to CA, I hope nowhere near the horrible fires 🔥. I’m going to keep stitching on my blessings sampler, I will be interested to see if I am even close to finishing in January.

    I love your finished dragon piece. All the little motifs are so cute. Gaia is gorgeous and Saga is amazing. We stitch totally different patterns however, I love and can appreciate your beautiful pieces. I missed seeing Winston. He’s such a cute little dude. He reminds me of my dog that I lost last fall. I had hoped 2024 and all its problems would magically disappear however, 2025 has not been so great. I live in SoCal and the fires and wind have been horrendous. I live an hour south of where the fires are but I have friends and family that live in the general area. Hopefully things will get better. I have no idea how you run in such cold weather. When it’s cold here ( nothing compared to where you live) I hate going out to do my walking. Good for you. Have a fun time on your trip. I assume you will be in Northern CA. It’s not nearly as cold there as New York. Enjoy!

      Thank you so much! I am very happy with the dragon piece and how it turned out. I do love that about stitching, there's a pattern for everyone and even if it's not our style we can appreciate all the hard work and time that's put into these projects! I'm glad you're still enjoying the channel! Just curious, what types of pieces do you stitch on? Maybe I'll have to try one! Aww yes, Winston was feeling a little sick this week so he was napping in his bed. hopefully he will be back in the next one! I know, 2025 has started with a bang and not in a good way. It's awful what's happening with the fires and I hope all your friends and family are safe! Have a good week and happy stitching!

    Hi Hun. Loving the dragon finish. Beautiful. Love those colours. All yr wips are gorgeous. I have the same problem with living huge pieces😂🤣 I will probably have to leave them unfinished for my children in the end. They will have to take up stitching. 😁 The snow has gone here in the UK but still very cold. I've yet to go back outside but still on the treadmill. Looking forward to hearing about yr half marathon at the end of January. Take care. Xx

It's official, I am in love with that project of yours. I was thinking the other day, that I'd probably ask you if you don't mind me trying to find a similar fabric to stitch her on. If I remember well that was custom made for you, wasn't it?🧜‍♀Anyway thanks for the great video, I wish you'll have a great time when you'll visit your boyfriend, safe travels and looking forward to seeing you again 😍🧳🧵🪡

      Thank you so much! I'm excited to see the mermaids complete too! hopefully soon! Gaia is just wonderful. Highly recommend stitching her and yes definitely feel free to use the same fabric if you would like! I'm happy with my choice so far! This was one from Fiberlicious Yummy Fibers and typically when they dye it they do 50/50, but I asked if they could do more like 70/30 to have more blue/gray at the top. When you order you can ask them to customize it how you would like and they are very helpful! Hope that helps. happy stitching!

    • @stavroulak.503
      @stavroulak.503 22 часа назад

      @@therunnerstitcher Thanks 😃 My problem is that I don't think I can find their fabrics in Europe, (I live in Germany), and ordering from the US it's really pricey! What I was thinking to do is to order from someone who dyes fabric here, to try and get that result for me if that is allowed 🤔 Otherwise I'd have to use a fabric closer to the suggested one I guess, which isn't bad, it's just that I think that the idea you had to stitch her the way you do makes her look even better 😀

    You can tell Markup R-XP not to count the border stitches. Just long press on the "Markup" button which will put you in "Erase" mode, which will show you everything Markup is counting as a stitch, and then you can unhighlight all the border stitches and it won't count them.
