Yes, that's exactly the phrase! I feel like I'm trying out more new styles and designers at the moment too which is so fun. I hope you have a most wonderful 2024 🩷
Always a treat to see a new floss tube from you pop up. Just makes my day & leaves me smiling. Encouraging to see someone else who has as many WIPs as I do😜 I did a fancy lady once….a Lavender & Lace design… Angel of Freedom. Took me forever, but did finish…spent a fortune on frame, but has been so worth it. Blown away by your wips - all so beautiful. Keep posting, Kat, you’re amazing! Sorry about the COVID-that stuff is sooo nasty…take care to fully recover. It’s 32f in Dallas, Texas & windy….so, brrr, but sun is out so it’s going to be a great stitchy day. Looking forward to your next post💕 Dianne
Oooh, that's a lovely fancy lady design you did! I certainly have lots more planned for 2024 😄 I'm so excited to continue sharing all my WIPs and so glad you're enjoying seeing them 😊 Feeling a lot better now thank you 🩷
Kat again I enjoyed this video. I am not a fancy lady stitcher , as I often (sorry) do not like them. Your 'The winters Gift is a first for me I like it. Your stitching and the colours WOW. At this time in Melbourne Australia it is a beautiful day it is 21c and sunny with a beautiful blue sky. I know you are in winter and I hope in you day you are cosy and warm. Happy New year .
Oooh, that sounds delightful where you are. It is so very grey and wet here right now. At least I have the beautiful colours of stitching to brighten my day; and yes, the colours of The Winter's Gift are stunning 😍 I'm glad I could show you a fancy lady you liked! But I do think it's so nice we all have different tastes and styles in our stitching 🩷
I purchased your well thought out planner . I love it . Hopefully it will keep me on track . I love your analogy of an all you can eat buffet I think we are all a little guilty of that. Thank you for delightful videos.
Thanks so much and I'm delighted the planner is working well for you 😊 I am enjoying tucking into my all you can eat buffet...1 new start and 1 finish already this year 😄
Kat I am howling at that blooper, that was so funny! Happy new year, I hope you're feeling a lot better now! I can't wait to see all your 2024 stitches and be encouraged/persuaded that, of course, I should do them too... you know what I'm like! I love all the fancy ladies! The new Bella design is lovely, I can't wait to see how that one turns out if you go for it! :)
I'm feeling so much better now...it took a while but at least it didn't affect my stitchy mojo 😄 I'm super excited for the 2024 projects I have planned...and all the enabling I can do 😂 I'm glad you enjoyed the blooper...see, I do definitely have some chaos 😂
Firstly, a Happy New Year Kat and I hope you feel better soon. I have been through all my pieces and ditched those I am not going to finish and have been in the cupboard for years. I have finally made a small start on my Mystic Stitch Fractal and want to work on it fairly constantly. I am also doing a small Christmas Ornament for 2024 which was supposed to be done on perforated paper but am doing it on aida and will make, I hope, it into a stand up ornament. I admire all your projects and wish you all the best with them all and look forward to seeing updates. I also have a lot of sewing to do this year so will be alternating the sewing machine with cross stitching. Look forward to more videos from you and thank you for all your help and advice over 2023. May 2024 be a great year for you.
Oooh, you sound very organised and ready for 2024 stitching and sewing! I totally agree with ditching projects that don't bring you joy; it leaves more space for the ones you love 😄 The Christmas ornament sounds cute! I hope you have a truly lovely 2024 🩷
Kat, we need to hook you up to a lie detector machine for these flosstubes - it'd be off the charts! "I'm definitely going to finish this... one day... maybe... possibly." "The cellotape is only temporary, it will be sewn properly eventually." "I'm not doing any Christmas stitching in January and February - oh wait, that's a lie." And my personal favourite, not present in today's video, but I'm sure it will rear its ugly head again soon: "I'm not buying any more stash." 🤣 Well done on your progress in 2023 (yes, there WAS progress), and looking forward to vicariously enjoying your stitching in 2024. 👍
I absolutely know better than to say I won't buy any more stash 😂 There is one more lie in that video though...something I said I wasn't going to do but apparently I now am 😂 I was really pleased with how much I got done though and excited for this shiny new year! I hope you have a wonderful 2024 😄
Happy New Year 🎉 I currently have four WIPs, one of which will be finished either today or tomorrow. The second one should be finished by the middle of January, with the third finished by the middle of February and then I’ll decide whether to continue to work on the fourth one or to start something new. The one I am working on now is my first project since returning to cross stitch after a 30 year hiatus - so glad I returned to cross stitch as I am loving it. It’s much easier on my arthritic hands than my knitting or quilting.
It's so nice to hear you are enjoying a return to cross stitch 😃 You sound like you have it all planned out with your WIPs for this shiny new year so I wish you a fantastic stitchy year 😄
I'm so sorry to hear you had covid :(. I'm glad you're feeling a bit better though. Love the Joan Elliott piece you are stitching. I've been eyeing that up and seeing your beautiful stitches makes it even more appealing haha. Happy New Year!
Happy New Year!! I'm feeling a lot better now and it didn't stop me stitching 😄 I am so enjoying the Joan Elliott...but I have also finally ordered some fabric I hope will work for Gaia so 🤞 Can't wait to see you start that one too 😄
A smorgasbord of stitching…what a perfect phrase for what we are doing. I hope you feel better right away. Blessings for 2024 to you and your family.
Yes, that's exactly the phrase! I feel like I'm trying out more new styles and designers at the moment too which is so fun. I hope you have a most wonderful 2024 🩷
Happy New Year.
You are a woman after my own heart when it comes to backs. Love the sellotape.
Happy stitching
Thank you and it's good to know I'm not alone with my makeshift backs 😂 Happy New Year and I hope it's full of good times for you 😄
