    Vickie, You are such an inspiration with all your beautiful stitching. You got quite a bit done from your last video! It's great seeing the patterns that we're both stitching and at different places. Have a wonderful vacation but don't stay away too long! Lori 😍

    Have a great time at your retreat and your cross country tour with your Mom. I am glad that you will do a WHIP Parade before your go and I will savor that while you are gone. It will be something that I can take my time to look forward to and to take time looking at. I always enjoy your show. You have such a great attitude with stitching and the only person I watch that has as many WHIPS as I have. You make me not feel guilty about having so many. I also thank you for letting me know that it is OK to work on whatever strikes my fancy and that is what I have been doing. Thanks again and Happy Trails to you.

    My first time watching, OMG you are such a talented stitcher! My jaw just hit the floor looking at your whips! I could not even comprehend doing all those complicated projects. They are a sight to behold!
    Thanks for sharing. Have a blessed summer.

    Vicky, LET FREEDOM RING is looking fantastic! I absolutely love that chart. I did like Stitching Fae and started in the bottom right corner and I love the Calico Kitty. That chart is too pretty to change anything ☺️. I agree about Stitching Bunny-her last video with the forgotten WIPs is a joy to watch. Safe travels and don’t forget to wave to me as you pass through Texas 🥰🥰.

    Hi Vicki! Have a wonderful time traveling with your Mom! Take a enough small pieces so you can switch back and forth the way you like to! ❤ I am looking forward to your WIP parade and no judgement from this group!!! The more projects the better in my opinion and I love seeing all the things you are working on and the variety is my favorite part of seeing all of your projects! Thanks for explaining your approach on beading! So helpful to see how you approach beading and the explanation on why you add felt to the bottom of the scroll frame. Your Autumn Angel is beautiful so I hope you do get a chance to finish it soon! All of your stitching is gorgeous! Enjoy the rest of your summer!

  • @nancysnyder2535

    You really don't stitch anything small, do you? 😂. I loved seeing all of your beautiful projects today! I could make a comment about each one of them! But I think what stands out to me the most is the beautiful thread colors your projects have as well as the lovely fabric colors they're stitched on. Just so gorgeous!! As primarily an aida stitcher myself, I just want to say thanks for showing everyone how fantastic a piece looks all stitched up on aida! Hope your upcoming travels are safe and fun!!!😊

    Hi Vicki! Your WIPS and all your finishes is absolutely fantastic! I love watching your channel because you stitch a lot of the things that I do! Especially the BAPS! I don’t know what attracts us to the big projects?! 🤣 But the Tidal River is gonna be fantastic when you’re done! I’ve finished mine on 32 count. I have the frame I just need to lace it! 🤪But keep the parades coming I love seeing your stitching! Happy and safe travels with your mom! And happy stitching!

    You have so many beautiful WIPs going. I really enjoy seeing what you're stitching and hearing about changes you've made. It was definitely worth it to restart Moonlight Sampler 3 time as the fabric it's on is perfect and it looks great. Have fun at your retreat, and enjoy your travels with your mom. Take care, Arleen

    Vicki, last year I found a framed cross stitch piece at a thrift store. Of course I bought it and brought it home… I looked it over, and a week later went to my LNS… wouldn’t you know it, there was the pattern for that piece!! It was the one you stitched, Prairie Schooler’s Village!!! I would love to see all your WIPs, I don’t care how long the video would be or if you do 20 of them! I enjoy seeing your stitching! I wish we could have met at Stitch-Con, however I was in Weekend A! Have a fantastic time with your mom, sounds like an amazing trip!

    Hi, Vicky, wow, what lovely June stitches! Congrats on the FFO, FO and semi FO! I'm working on Houses of Hawk Run Hollow, and a couple of your suggestions made a huge difference: 1. I took the time to stitch all the borders so I can move where I want and 2. I used your 9 half crosses and one full cross to easily keep track of counting around the borders (GENIUS!!!). I love watching WIP parades, so whatever format is easiest for you is good with me. Safe travels, and I really hope you've included some cross stitch shops in your US loop tour. Happy Stitching! Lynn

  • @caroltombari9112
    @caroltombari9112 Год назад

    I am amazed at how many projects you have started. I just finished The Angel Of Hope by Lavender and Lace. It was on 16 count which is just too small for me. My daughter started it 25 years ago and hadn't done much. I have to do graph lines in light blue thin thread to keep count (then pull out). I use the scroll to stitch, mine has a part that I sit on so I can use both hands. Be careful with your hand that holds the hoop, I have damaged my left thumb (I call it my craft thumb.). I recently did Maggie The Mess Maker by Dementions and swore I would never again something so complicated!

  • @kathyn4267

    I'm so happy for you that you will be having such a memorable trip with your mom. Your stitching keeps me inspired and your organization has helped me to tidy up my craft room.
    I particularly love the fabric you used on the first piece you shared, the Quaker with the alphabet. Monochromatic is a powerful statement in stitching and you pulled it off perfectly. Safe travels!

  • @annieann99

    Take a few smaller projects to stitch on your trip . You will need the de stress they provide. I drove NY to AZ by myself with a dog and I stitched every night in the hotel.

    I’m always impressed with how far you get on each piece! I’m totally in love with Let Freedom Ring & it’s a must have for me - Rick & I actually got engaged 27 years ago in front of the liberty bell, so I don’t know why I haven’t ordered it! It’s been on my wants list for too long!
    Can’t wait for another 1 of your fabulous WIP parades! ❤️🤍💙🧵🪡

    Hi Vicky. After hearing you talk about the strength of reading glasses you use and that you still struggle, I hope you are having your eyes examined yearly. I know you say you don't have any issues but only they can tell. I have macula degeneration in both eyes. Central vision is gone in one and the other is good so far. Treasure your eyes. I know I do now. If you need an eye doctor I can recommend Fields Family Eycare on rt 17 in Stafford. I went there for several years.

  • @kathymanzo4061
    @kathymanzo4061 Год назад

    I'm sure it feels great to get this beautiful piece finished! I have a question. Do you sign your work? If so how do you do that?
    As a former Fairfax, Virginia gal and now living near Ocean City MD, I was happy to hear you mention In Stitches, where I shopped in Alexandria. I now shop at Salty Yarns in Ocean City. Love this shop! Maybe I will see you there some time 🙂

    It looks like you are having the same problem there as we are here in South Carolina. We are in our fourth day of a heat advisory. In order to be able to breathe in this humidity, our air conditioners are running high. But I have to wear a light jacket or use a light cover because it makes me cold. I even used a rolled-up bandana headband over my ears. Once the air conditioner stops running, I am fine though. But it is amusing (or maddening) to have to carry a light jacket in July.

    I love all your stitches. I don’t say much but I watch all your flosstubes. I especially like what you’ve done for the moonlight stitch. If it’s not too trouble would you share your floss choices with me? I love the pattern but not so much the fabric color so I haven’t started it. The dark blue looks wonderful so I’ll try to find something close to what you used. Thanks!
