I am fascinated by your full coverage dragon. You’re the first stitcher I’ve seen that doesn’t use the parking technique. Could you talk about your method? I’m so enjoying your channel. I’m a new subscriber.
I've had quite a few people curious about my stitching method for the dragon so I'm hoping to make a 'stitch with me' video to show how I work on it...so watch this space!
Oh my! I'm doing a little happy dance as I type! Thank you sooo much Kat. This has really made my Easter weekend! On a side note, Andy the Avocado is just too adorable and yes, you can never, ever have too much fabric! 😂
I was debating on a name for the avo so I guess you've done it for me now...it's fab 🥑😄 I really was so delighted when the random picker thing popped up your name 😆 I'll reply to your email 🩷
Love the start on your coffee gnome! Gonna be so cute :). So many good choices for Gaia's fabric! Oh that bubble car!! I've never seen that before but love it!
Today was my trip to London and stitching the coffee gnome on the train went pretty well... lots of good progress 😄 And the Microlino was soooooo cute!
Nice to see your avocado-buddy again! How could we NOT spot him! 🥑😁 (I think you need to give him a name) I had to laugh at your sort-of promise not to buy any more fabric... 🤣🙊 I'm going to have to start making popcorn for these feature-length videos. 🍿 Cheers Kat, enjoy your Easter weekend stitching.
Oh yes...there's a lot of tash to stitch...I've done half and I've still got the beard to tackle 😬 I'm really loving how it's coming out though. I've played around with some slightly toned down skin colours so just need to test them out. It was so nice to FFO the bunnies and have them on display, and I'm so happy you liked the finish 😊
So I just settled down an hour ago to do some stitching and saw you had a new video! So so so so delighted for the mention - I’m so grateful and really stunned with your kind words! Filming my 3rd flosstube on Friday and my WIPs have doubled!!!! Thank you again Kat, love your new Teddy design!
You are so very welcome for the shout out and I hope it helps more people discover you 😄 That's an impressive WIP increase and I'm excited to watch to see what you've been up to 😄🩷
I am just dipping my toes back into cross stitching after not doing it for about 20 years. Things have grown so much and changed for the better. I mean we barely had the internet and you had to do what was in the store closest to you. The internet has been a total game changer, and it allows me to watch channels like yours, which I am in love with, and learn so many new things. Your channel is wonderful and has taught me so much. Thank you💗
That's so kind of you, thank you 😊 I learned to cross stitch over 30 years ago and you are so right...loads has changed over that time and definitely for the better. Not least being able to connect with other cross stitchers all over the world and share the love of this fab craft 😄🩷
Hi Kat…. LOVE the new fabric! Just gorgeous- so many options now. I’m going to HAVE to dabble in that pond a little. I’ve recently started the Bothy Summer pattern & have to say the half stitch threw me a little. I don’t believe I’ve ever done that before OR a full cross stitch in 16 count with only ONE thread! Watch out for that one also… had to do a bit of unstitching myself. Trying to be careful with thread usage since your caution about Bothy’s tendency to skimp on provided threads. Thank you for “heads up” on that. Still not happy that they don’t use DMC, my preference. Can’t wait for your next update. LOVE your videos. Dianne in Dallas
Hi Dianne, I hope you're enjoying the Bothy Summer pattern despite all the different stitches! I'm definitely finding it keeps me on my toes! I labelled my thread card with all the symbols and did them in different colours for full cross 2 strands, full cross 1 strand etc. and I hope that will keep me on track 🤞The chart is not the easiest to read either and I'm marking off very carefully as I go otherwise I think I'd get very lost. I'm definitely loving my new fabric stash 😄 I was nervous of trying different colours but it's been great so far and my confidence is growing.
I’m soooooo excited. I ordered my FIRST EVER, pattern and ordering all the fabric and floss today! (I’ve only done stamped cross stitch). I’ve barely started my cross stitch journey and I love it! I’ve completed 1 and started 3 others. All stamped kits. This is going to be my first counted and I bought your little unicorn from your Etsy shop!! I’m too excited..and scared of messing it up! Lol
Woohoo!!! That is very exciting and I'm really honoured you're starting out with one of my designs 😄 Thank you for the lovely review as well 😊 I hope you'll enjoy stitching it and drop me an email if you have any questions; my email is in the description 🩷
I use Pattern Keeper for my huge full coverage and paper for everything else. I've tried Markup RXP and haven't really got on with it so well...it's probably great but I keep running into problems and getting frustrated with it. I like paper patterns because then I can use my tablet for watching flosstubes 😂
Peachy Stitcher sent me!! Love all your stitching - look forward to watching you again soon!
Hello! Peachy Stitcher is so lovely and it's great to see you here 😄 I hope you'll enjoy my videos!
I didn't know that half stitches should line up with the top bar of the full stitches. so awesome to learn new things. Thanks!
Well, it's all a matter of personal preference but I like doing it that way and I'm glad you found this helpful to hear 😄
Oh my goodness!! I'm so happy to have won :D My son witnessed my joy as I heard my name and he was delighted for me as well!! Thanks so so much :)
Yay!!!! So happy for you and I'm glad it was a lovely surprise 😄 I'll reply to your email 🩷
Gorgeous fabric selection! Congrats on some great stash. ❤🌎
Thank you...it's so nice to start building my fancy fabric collection 😄

Doesn't he just so look like an Andy? 😆🥑 Enjoy that last teeny little bit of Easter we still have left Kat and have a lovely stitchy week! ❤️🪡🧵
Your ordered fabrics are beautiful! Enjoyed your video. Happy Easter!
Thank you 😊 I'm looking forward to using the fabrics 😄 Happy Easter 🐰🐣

I'm going to have to start making popcorn for these feature-length videos. 🍿 Cheers Kat, enjoy your Easter weekend stitching.
Thank you from me and my as yet un-named avocado buddy 😂😄
I think you should definitely get some popcorn...I seem to have a lot to say each time!
I finally sorted my cross stitch fabric and was shocked at how much I have. And yet, here I am still purchasing more....lol.
My fabric stash definitely needs a bit of organisation! And you can never have too much I reckon 😂
I'm doing the Soda Stitch Tea gnome. Enjoyable stitch but the tash and beard is a beast. I loved your framing of the 2 bunnies.❤

Hello:) new viewer here. I was wondering, do you stitch from pattern keeper/markup r-xp or do you use paper patterns?
I use Pattern Keeper for my huge full coverage and paper for everything else. I've tried Markup RXP and haven't really got on with it so well...it's probably great but I keep running into problems and getting frustrated with it.

Can u name these threads?
