Geez thanks alot for this video. Do you realize how long my Mill Hill wish list is now. Lol. This video was fantastic. I love doing Mill Hill kits. I have almost all the yearly Santas except for the last 3 years. And I've done about 4 of them. And I have done a few of the buttons and beads ones. They are so addicting. And I also keep the extra beads in the same container. Till next time. Happy Mill Hill Stitching.
Heehee!! Wishlist ate more fun when they go on and on 😂 Have you stitched all those Santas? I'm not sure why I never buy the Santas, but it would look amazing seeing them all on a tree! I think He'll from Little Yellow House crafts collects the Santas, too. So fun!
I am a Mill Hill junkie and have made about 50 kits over the years. Started in 2009. I have yet to make the smaller ones and after watching your video, I am inspired to make a few. As for finishing, I usually buy a thrift store frame and if it needs a mat, have it professionally cut and put it together myself. I am going to try a flat fold finish with one of my Halloween designs. Thanks for sharing and stay well to all.
Wow! 50!?! That's awesome, especially that it's 50 of the big ones! Any chance you can do a video? :) I'd LOVE to see them all! I love your finishing ideas, and a flat fold would be cute!
@@calico_whimsy I have never done a RUclips video and I don't keep most of my finished projects for long. They are given away to friends & family. I have thought about making a video because I feel I have the process down. And I feel it will demonstrate to those that want to start a Mill Hill kit, that they are relatively easy. As with any type of stitching, it just requires reading the instructions before you start and patience. I recently finished the Fa, La, La, Llamas, Holiday IV I Believe (Santa), Painted Pumpkins, & Cappuccino. My current WIP is Santa's Treats. In the near future I will be doing the Sticks Spooktacular & Today is the Day. Plus I am ordering some more kits from 123 Stitch as my family requests them. I want to mention that I don't exclusively stitch Mill Hill/ Sticks. I do stitch on fabric and love various designers as well.
Oh I hope you do take the plunge and start making videos! Pretty Please!! It sounds like you would be an awesome addition to the Flosstube community! We especially love videos that demonstrate how to do something, even if you just talk about it. I can hardly part with any of my stitching and don't know how you do it :). The recipient would have to prove they are worthy, lol! Other than my mom, or another stitcher, I'm not sure anyone would appreciate the hard work. Well, I hope you give it some thought and if you do make a video, be sure to let me know and I'll give you a shout-out!
Really enjoyed seeing all your Mill Hills, both finished & new. I’m going to try to start one when you start your Mill Hill Maynia, & I think you just might’ve enabled me to buy 2 of them that you showed. TFS. 😊
Love, love, love! ❤ These are so cute! I've never tried a Mill Hill, but I just might have to now. These would make excellent gifts! 🎁 What a great video
Oh, Cool! I'll bet it's turning out so cute! You are lucky to live a little closer to Yellowstone than me, Do you go there often? I can't wait to go back again someday :) Wouldn't it be awesome if there was a stitching retreat at Old Faithful Lodge!!! I would die!
Love the Mill Hill Maynia idea! I have only one little Mill Hill kit in my stash, but that Conch looks beautiful! I guess I will have to go shopping!! 🤣
And now I want to go look through my Mill Hill stash. LOL. I have done the butterfly one you have planned for Maynia. I did it on 14 count aida and it turned out beautifully.
HeeHee! Which ones did you get? I miss your videos with Jeni and hope you can find a way to make one again someday :) Youe need to show off your Mira! Stay safe!
I'm so glad that you did this video!. I think that my favorite finish has to be your roller skates. Those pompoms get me every time I see them. I have always loved your "Smores" since you showed it when you finished it. But, I didn't think that I would like the "Banana Split" until I saw yours. Now I need to get that one along with one of my most favorite kits ever, "Triple Scoop". I will be excited to see it stitch up. I did the larger "Gingerbread House" last year and loved it. After seeing the cottage that you did, I have to do that one too. So many beautiful kits and finishes. I think that the way you do the bead hanger now looks so much more finished. I'm going to have to copy you. I'll definitely be joining you for #millhillmaynia.
I just found your channel through "Cindy's cross stitch" and I am so glad she mentioned you! I have loved Mill Hill kits for many years. Your finishes, WIPs, haul and Maynia choices are lovely and I either have them or want them, especially the Halloween designs. lol Not the foodie ones though, I don't want to go down that rabbit hole. I may have to get the Bead Storage Solutions, what an awesome product.
Thank you for visiting my channel! Mill Hills kits are so fun! I've been going to town on them this month and you will see those videos starting on Oct 1. I went a little crazy, let's just say that 😛
😂😂 I don't blame you! I'll tell you I'm having to practice great restraint to keep digging into my kits right now. If it weren't for commiting to my Fox progress this month, I'd be jumping in with both feet into AprilMaynia. But hence, I must stay the course with Mr Fox as to not disappoint those that voted for it 😊🦊
AWESOME video! I love Mill Hill Kits. I did most of mine back in the 90's, lots of fall, Halloween and Christmas. I just went shopping and have picked out a few that you showed. Thanks for sharing. Stay Well 🙂
Thanks for another great video; I love seeing another stitcher's stash! I love those food Mill Hills - they would be cute on the refrigerator. I may join you with starting one in May. Take care, happy stitching and Happy Easter!
Loved this! I love stitching mill Hill kits. They are so fun. I feel so out of the loop...how did I not know there were national parks Santas??? Have to check those out now.
I just recently found those Santas myself! I don't think there are All the parks, but If not, I hope they continue with them! I sure miss your videos! Happy Easter and Stay safe!
Calico yeah I immediately looked them up and they have Yellowstone, Grand Canyon and Yosemite. Would love for them to do more. Definitely going to keep an eye out.
@@fiberartsyreads Us that really all they have so far? I think those are from 2018, so I thought maybe they would have more by now. I hope they didn't give up on them. I'll keep my eye out, too!
So much fun seeing all your Mill Hill kits. I absolutely love stitching them and have several-mostly the 5 x 5 ones. They’re fun to do and when you’re done you just plop them in a frame and they’re ready to display. What a great idea to do them for Maynia. Can’t wait to see your progress. Will you do an update everyday like last year? I thought it was great. Happy Easter to you.
Thank you! Yes, super easy to stick in a frame! It was kind of stressful doing daily videos last year so I can't promise I'll do that again.....but I'll give it some thought! I'm not sure how interesting it will be to see all the starts. We'll see! :)
I just found your channel and I LOVED this video. I haven't done Mill Hill in decades and I currently own one buttons and beads kit called Spooky Gate. Your finishing on the ornaments is so neat and tidy. It just makes me want to make a whole Mill Hill tree. Where do you hang your non Christmas ornaments? Do you have something particular? I like to hang decorations on drawer knobs that I don't pull out much.
Thank you! I also have Spooky Gate and wanted to stitch it this month, but couldn't fit it in ! As far as hanging the non Halloween Mill Hills I just hang them around the house, here and there, 🤣. I need to come up with some ideas!
Winged Monarch is the kit that I have! Should we try to start that one on the same day? Maybe around the 21st or 22nd - right after my Monogamous plans are over. 🦋✨
You do the cross stitching first, then you add the beads by doing either a half or full cross stitch. I made a video that shows how do do it a few years ago. I'll find the link. It's so easy!
@@heidicraftydogs I've made a lot of the Mill Hill kits and get them from 123 stitch. Contact them via email to see if they will ship over seas. 123stitch.com. They have tons of designs. Save your excess beads because you may want to make duplicates of some. Be well.

Great progress. Great finishes. Good luck with your Maynia plans. Thanks for sharing

Love, love, love! ❤ These are so cute! I've never tried a Mill Hill, but I just might have to now. These would make excellent gifts! 🎁 What a great video
Thank you! Once you stitch one, they become very addicting! Have fun!
What an amazing stash, I don’t know how you choose which one to stitch first! Thanks as always for a great video. Stay safe x
Thank Susan! It is so hard to choose!
Love the ones with dangly legs
Just the cutest! :)
Love what you've done! For the nutcracker sword you can glue a toothpick to the back and cover with an addition layer of felt overall. Tfs!
Great idea about the toothpick reinforcement for the sword! Thank you and happy stitching!
Thank you! I love Mill Hill kits and have stitched lots. I am stitching Yellowstone Santa right now. Yellowstone is my favorite place, too!
Oh, Cool! I'll bet it's turning out so cute! You are lucky to live a little closer to Yellowstone than me, Do you go there often? I can't wait to go back again someday :) Wouldn't it be awesome if there was a stitching retreat at Old Faithful Lodge!!! I would die!

Don't you just love that shell? I think you need it :)
Hi Calico, great Mill Hill stash. Susan
Thank you!
And now I want to go look through my Mill Hill stash. LOL. I have done the butterfly one you have planned for Maynia. I did it on 14 count aida and it turned out beautifully.
Oh, I keep meaning to try doing one on Aida instead of the Perf paper one of these days! I'm sure it looks amazing!
You made me go buy three new Mill Hill kits! Hahaha. They’re all amazing, nice work!
HeeHee! Which ones did you get? I miss your videos with Jeni and hope you can find a way to make one again someday :) Youe need to show off your Mira! Stay safe!

Loved seeing all your mill hill kits. I want to do my butterfly now. Happy Easter 🌻🌻
Yes, Cindy! Give it a try!!
They're all so cute 😍 I especially like the flamingos!

They are so fun! I hope you do! Happy Stitching!
Mill Hill kits always look so much better when you see them stitched! Definitely added to my wish list after watching this! Happy stitching! - Laura
I agree, even in the video they don't quite show their bling! Always happy to enable :)! Happy Stitching!
How fun!!! Unfortunately I couldn’t wait until May and I’ve been beading all my Mill Hills this last week! 😂

Uh-oh, can feel a new collection coming on! This was so nice and sparrkly: love all the birds and butterflies☺. Have a fun Maynia!
I say go ahead!! You can never have too many collections!😊
Awesome finishes! I just bought 2 buttons and beads kits but I am going to substitute paper for linen❤️
Thank you! I think they will look awesome on linen! ❤️❤️

Calico I’ll pencil in to start the butterfly on the 21st, but feel free to let me know if a better day works for whatever plan you come up with. 😊
@UCvF4EjBW6Hp3E_9YG3ezEGw That day sounds as good as any!
Is it cross stitching and beading or just beading. How do you put on the beads? So beautiful! Love your projects.
You do the cross stitching first, then you add the beads by doing either a half or full cross stitch. I made a video that shows how do do it a few years ago. I'll find the link. It's so easy!

Do you know where I can buy those in Germany ?

Thank you! Boy, I would guess you would have to maybe order them online. I get a lot of them on Amazon. Let me see if I can find out for you...
Oh, have you tried Etsy? I see them for sale on there and maybe the will ship internationally.
Our amazon is amazon.de.
They do not carry the same items like amazon.com.
I will check etsy. Thank you so much. Stay healthy !❤🌹
@@heidicraftydogs Do you know if 123Stitch.com will ship internationally? Might look there, too and I'll keep looking!
@@calico_whimsy I checked..yes I can order there. Thanks again, happy Easter and stay healthy please. ❤🌹❤🌹❤
Love seeing the Mill Hill finishes. Are they hard to finish? I have a couple of kits and they actually have me a little scared to do.
Not hard at all! I made a video a few years ago on how I finish them with felt on the back and it's easy 😊 ruclips.net/video/fbFZqRQoVhw/видео.html
