    Btw,I'm going to be a little sad I won't he at your first retreat, but I'm certain you'll have a wonderful time among lovely, talented stitchers like yourself. ❤
    Your description of yourself as a little boy waiting patiently for your mama to come home ,having been cared for by a loving grandma and family all day , just brought such joy and nostalgia to my heart all at once ....and then knowing circumstances changed for you afterwards... sadness as well. Much love ,dear friend. 🥲

    So good to see you again and hear another episode of your Mom's story, even though it seems you are carry on the "Perils of Pauline" tradition. What beautiful finishes. I especially love Sunday on La Grande Jatte and how you fully finished this piece. Enjoy your first autumn in CT, spooky or not. I am waiting for your upcoming opinion on winter in the northeast as you remember the warmth of a southern CA winter. Have a great two weeks in autumnal delight and I look forward to seeing you and your stitching then.

    You are such a wonderful storyteller! I found your flosstube videos from the lovely ladies in Alabama. Your needlework is so gorgeous and most love how you stitch pieces that you love, not just what everyone else is stitching. I like to stitch a few smalls and then work some on a chart for an antique sampler my 2x great grandmother did when she was a little girl in 1823. You have sparked an entrance in me for doing more Christmas ornaments. I usually make them for gifts there for have none for myself!! I love the all Santas. Autumn

    I loved seeing all of your stitchy pieces. I’m enjoying the story about you and your mom and hate it when you stop and leave us hanging. Be happy you aren’t in Los Angeles. I think it was 96 degrees in the valley today. It was 80 on the coast where I live in OC. Enjoy your beautiful weather and wildlife visitors. Happy Fall!!!

    I use the sticky-back felt as well for all my ornaments! The package of felt from Amazon gives you so many colors to choose from. Well done on the partridge ornament. I never thought about the long loop vs short loop and I love your idea of using the short loop to allow for manipulation of the ornament on the tree. Those goats are darling - I think you are referring to Fainting Goats....I've seen them and when they faint, it is startling! Autumn and Spooky are two of my favorite words...especially at this time of the year! Thank you for an amazing video, as usual.

    Wonderful, fun video, as always! Love the finish and the ornaments. I agree, they are intricate to cut out. A little tip to identify birds, butterflies, anything really is google pic. If you go on to your google app and take a picture it will tell identify the item, bird, etc. for you. I do it a lot when I see different birds at my backyard feeders or flowers that I don't recognize. love your life story...a cliffhanger! Can't wait for more!

    Embarrassing was only the fact that I need recommendations from an american flosstuber for german flosstubers, even I'm from Germany myself. ./////. But hey, now I can look them up. ^^ For your german skillz... you did great! :)
    Thank you so much for sharing not just your cross stitching, but also your personal thoughts, memories and emotions with us.... it really hit me deep, just to hear what I've heared today and to imagine what will come. Feel hugged tight and lots of love from Germany,
