I love the gang and how you stitched it on a top, wishing you and your Family Happy Holidays, congrats on your channel, keep on stitching
Thank you very much! Happy Holidays and Happy Stitching!
I love that you call what we do "art" - because it is - we paint with thread. People forget that and I think we should promote that a lot more than we have until now. Have a good Holiday season with your mother in Florida.
Thank you so much! I really do believe it is a form of art! Happy Stitching!
It absolutely is art!
My almost 4-year-old only watches Mickey and the GANG these days, he would love seeing me stitch his buddies. Congrats on 2,000 subscribers, love stitching and watching your videos.
;)
Hi Andrew, what a treat this evening seeing your 3rd Floss tube, well done on meeting your deadlines. I find deadlines motivate me but sometimes I end up burning the midnight oil to get them done as gifts. I’m not sure if you are aware that Marilyn Leavitt-Imblum (Lavender & Lace) is Nora Corbett’s (Mirabilia) mother.
I love your sweatshirt with Mickey and the Gang, stitching a design twice is tough especially one after the other.
Have a fabulous holiday season. Take care until next time from across the pond. Wendy.
Hi Wendy! Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed this one. I had no idea that Marilyn was Nora's mother! Wow, the amount of talent in the family!! That's so cool, thank you for telling me! It's no wonder I love all of those designs :). I hope you have a wonderful holiday as well!
Love the Sweatshirt stitched with Disney gang characters. Your lucky Mom! So intriguing to see you start such large projects for the new year. I only have 2 large ones for next year, but somewhat smaller projects are my favs. Enjoy the holiday season.
Thank you! I may be in over my head with these larger projects, but time will tell ha. Maybe smalls will be my favorite too. Merry Christmas!
Really enjoyed this flosstube episode! Mickey and the Gang is an awesome pattern and I’d love to have it!
Thank you so much! :)
I hope you and your family have the Merriest of Christmas’s. Your stitching of the Disney Gang on the sweatshirts is amazing.
Thank you very much. Merry Christmas to you and yours as well!
Congrats on 2000 subscribers. The Gang is all here.
Thank you :)
It’s nice to see another guy cross stitching, we’re kinda out numbered in this crafts. Welcome…
We definitely are! Happy to meet others who are stitching as well.
Congrats on reaching 2000 subscribers! You will have 10,000 in no time. Love your sweatshirts with the Disney gang characters.
Thank you so much!! I'm having a great time meeting all of you!
Congratulations to your 35:02 2,000 subscribers. I’ve enjoyed watching your videos from the beginning. I have a Disney connection. I would love to stitch the Disney and the gang project. I just love it. Yes, I also love that you call our projects as Art. I love to see the designs coming together with each stitch. ❤
Thank you so much! I'm glad you are enjoying the videos. Happy stitching!!
I am really not surprised that you've already hit over 2,000 subscribers! Congratulations! 👏 I'm luv'n your progress on the Disney gang sweatshirt piece; you are just flying on it!! It looks great! ~ I agree that deadlines cause me to lose some enjoyment with my stitching. That's also the reason I no longer do the "challenges" within the community. I'm a very slow stitcher and I felt like I was "failing" at my hobby when I didn't meet the goals. Cross stitching is a form of therapy for me, so I don't need to complicate it, in any way. 😊 Take care & God Bless. 🙏
Happy Holidays! 🎄🎉
Thank you so much! I love that. Stitching isn't a race and it's great that everyone can treat it how they want and make it beneficial for them. Hobbies are for fun and we shouldn't feel like we are failing! Happy Holidays!
Caught up on your second and third flosstube tonight while stitching! Your mom’s Christmas tree is beautiful.
I love Marjorie Made as well. She’s one of my favorites. Your sweatshirt is really coming along. But after seeing your moms and you showing yours-my mind is boggled by how you transfer the pattern to the sweatshirt! How does that work?!?!?
Enjoy your holidays in FL with your parents. I’m sure they’re loving having you there. I’ve lost both of mine and would give anything to have another Christmas with them. ❤
Can’t wait to see your progress on Fruits of Plenty. I’ve been wanting to start it for quite awhile but it’s so dang intimidating!
Thank you! I'm glad you're enjoying them. I had to show off her tree because I thought it was lovely! I use a water soluble canvas that I put on top of the sweatshirt and then stitch through that. At some point maybe I'll do a tutorial video :). I'm so sorry about your losses. Sending you all the love this holiday season. I am definitely cherishing these moments I have with my family. Fruits of plenty is a daunting task, but I'm going to give it a go. It's just so beautiful! Let me know if you end up starting it too (not trying to enable ha)!
I love youuuuu. One flosstube a week! ❤
haha :). Every two weeks will be my goal! So glad you're enjoying this crazy thing I'm doing :)
I absolutely love your Odyssey project! Perfect fabric and thread color. Can't wait to see Mickey and the Gang finished! Thanks for Iris's Etsy link...her patterns are fabulous! Hope you and yours have a very Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas to you as well! I'm glad you're enjoying the video and the Odyssey Piece. Did you end up purchasing any of her patterns? They are so good!
Love your plans for 2024. Congratulations on 2000 subscribers. Happy to be part of your gang .
Thank you! Happy you are enjoying the videos so far and glad you're here!
I am so happy to be part of your gang! I can’t wait to hear how the run goes in January! I can’t even imagine doing that 😮. I love that you call our craft art. I never considered myself an artist, but I guess we are making art. I just binged all your videos…ready for more!
Oh thank you so much! I'm glad you're enjoying them! We definitely are making art!! Stay tuned, the next one is coming soon! :)
Love the Mickey and the gang .the Mirabilla patterns are fun.just take it easy don't try to rush. I have done 5 of her mermaids and Royal Games 1. Working on Royal Games 2
I agree. I'll take the Mira's one stitch at a time. I want to enjoy the process and I know I"m going to learn so much!
Congratulations on 2K! Florida is about as warm as NY right now. I am in Lakeland & I’m freezing. Love the Mickey and the Gang pattern.
Thank you! You're not kidding ha. I pulled out my winter gloves and hat for my run the other day!
Thank you for the video. I love sweatshirts they look fantastic. I would love to join the gang. I think the colors you have picked for the fruits of plenty will be great, I would love to see it in that colorway. CREATIVE LEIGH did it in oranges, and it was beautiful. I love the fabrics you picked for your,Miras. I never decide to do a project in a space of time, I don't do stress and it is one way to get me to switch to one of my other 10 or 20 hobbies so I decide who will get the finish when it is done. At times, I have given them away because I hated the finish only to find a year later. I wish I had kept it, especially when they didn't appreciate all the work it took. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you so much! I'm glad you're enjoying the videos. I think de-stressing hobbies is definitely the way to go!
Gang 😊
Congratulations on the 2000 subscribers 👏
Thank you!
I have right the same issue with the deadlines in cross stitching and other crafts. It definitely takes away the pleasure. So … No more deadlines for me. Joy is the priority.
I completely agree! Now we do it for the joy! Happy stitching!
Oh goodness, Winston is so sweet!! I hope you had a wonderful Christmas with your family❣
Thank you! You too! He really is the cutest. Maybe he will have to make another appearance :)
G’day from Melbourne, Australia 🇦🇺 I have enjoyed all your videos. I don’t like stitching to deadlines but do a lot of gifts like birthdays or baby births and find myself under the pump to deliver. This makes stitching feel like work not pleasure but I still do it. I stitch Christmas ornaments for my sister each year and love these. I can do them at any time and quite quickly achieve FFOs. I can pick them up at any time of the year. Very occasionally I stitch for myself and these are the real pleasure stitches.
Good day! That is so lovely that you do so much stitching for other people. I enjoy that too. Ornaments are a great idea since they can go quicker!
Lordy, I (and 2,000 others!) just adore you! So glad you're part of the cross stitching community! Sailor Moon looks amazing! And, those Disney sweatshirts are beyond fabulous!!! I can't wait to see the pics of you & your Mom wearing them on race day!!! - I'm just like you with plans & deadlines - I like plans, but not so fond of deadline stitching! Heck, I don't even like the pressure of a SAL. LOL. Anyway, Happiest Holiday Wishes to you & your loved ones!! If I don't get a chance to see you on here beforehand, here's a heartfelt 'Best Wishes for strength, stamina, speed & endurance for your mega race event!!!' - We are all part of your cheerleading Gang!!!
Oh thank you so much!! That is so kind. It's great to know I have people cheering me on! So glad you're enjoying these videos and Happy Holidays to you as well!
Welcome to the gang. Congrats on the 2000 subscribers.
Thank you!
It seems to me that the minute I put a deadline or a "rule" on a piece, my brain rebels and I don't want to stitch on that particular piece lol. I don't know that there is a good option for a sweatshirt, but when I have concerns about securing my stitches I use a lightweight fusible interfacing over the back of my stitching area to just "seal" the stitches and prevent anything from pulling out my woven in ends.
Don't be intimidated by a Mirabilia - even beads are put on one stitch at a time. I think you'll find her a pleasure to stitch; the colors flow so nicely that it's easy to follow along.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! 🪡👠
I completely agree. My brain loves plans but not rules ha. I do use a fusible interfacing as well and that works well for the sweatshirt! I just like to be extra cautious ha. Thank you for the encouragement on the Mirabilias. I really appreciate that. Merry Christmas to you as well!
Congrats on 2k subscribers. I have just stitched a different Sailor Moon piece for my granddaughter for Christmas. A gift needs to be put into plans early! Otherwise the pressure to get it done removes some of the pleasure. Enjoy Disney in January
Thank you! I agree that gifting plans need to happen early. I didn't like the pressure :). Happy stitching!
Hello Andrew. Merry Christmas. It was such a joy to hear that you'll be with your folks for a nice long visit through Christmas and the new year. That is such a great blessing. I hope you and your gang have a wonderful time together.
I feel exactly like you about a deadline for stitching. You and I said "it takes the joy out of it" at the same time. Yes, it's lovely to give stitchy gifts but it shouldn't cost your own joy to give to another.
I'm in FL too so I hope you're liking our version of winter. I'm wishing you and your mom best luck in your Disney run.
Thanks for sharing your time and happiness with us.
Merry Christmas
Thank you so much. I am very happy to be here with my parents for an extended time. I feel lucky I get to do that! FL winter is much better than cold NY winter :). Merry Christmas and Happy Stitching!
I just love the sweatshirts. Mickey and the gang look amazing on them. Your work is beautiful. That Sailor moon is amazing. Congrats on your 2K milestone. Good luck on the race. Hopefully it will be a nice cool day here in FL. It's been nice the last couple days.
Thank you very much. I was pleased with how Sailor Moon turned out! Yes, I'm also hoping for a cooler FL day. The past few days have been lovely for running! Merry Christmas!
Always love your videos. Love how your sweatshirts with Mickey and the Gang look!
Thank you so much!
Andrew, Way to go on getting over 2000 subscribers...your channel is fun to watch. It is fun to see someone stitching on clothing again...I think you may start a new movement. I like that you have added your favorite activity to your channel. I sometimes need deadlines to get things done but it does add a little stress when stitching should be relaxing.
Carmen from Fargo
Thank you! I'm glad you are enjoying the videos. I'm happy to share my journey with you all! Happy Stitching!
Hi Andrew
Congratulations on having 2000 Subscribers to your Channel - that is so awesome.
When it comes to Stitching Heaven And Earth Designs - you don’t have to do them on 25 Count Lugana - you can do them on 18 Count Aida. I have three of them started on 18 Count Aida. You can still see the Details on the picture.
Happy Stitching
❤️🤗🧵🪡🧵❤️
Thank you very much! That is great to know the details still come through. Maybe I'll give that a thought as an option! I'm sure I'll have more questions as I go along. Happy Stitching!
@@therunnerstitcher - Yes they are so much easier to do on 18 Count than 25 Count. Of course they will be much bigger too.
I love Mickey and the gang
When in Disneyland back in November I looked for cross stitch kits and didn't find any, was sad about that
Have a great Holiday season
Thank you! Yes they do seem to be hard to find. Ebay is where I found this one and there were a handful of other ones there. Happy Holidays to you as well!
Love your finish and your progress on your wips. Happy stitching!
Thank you! 😊
Happy Christmas. Did Mom love her sweatshirt? I don't set deadlines, but also love gifting. Gang. Happy New Year as well.
Happy Christmas! You will see soon, stay tuned!
Love your videos! Mickey and the gang is very cute pattern. Your sweatshirts look amazing!
Thank you so much!! I'm glad you are enjoying the videos!
Oh Winston is so adorable!
He's definitely my little stitching buddy :)
Congratulations on your channel. I love your channel the floss bossin cousins mentioned you and I have been a fan since episode 1. I am happy I’m part of your gang.
Thank you so much! I am really enjoying Floss Bossin Cousins as well :). Happy you're here and enjoying the videos!
Enjoyed the video and your progress. I usually start gift projects very, very early because deadlines scare me to death. I just know I’ll spill something on it or some other catastrophe! I would love to stitch Mickey and the gang.
Thank you! I agree about deadlines :)
Cross stitch the motifs and finish as ornaments rom the Japanese advent calendar.congratulations on your ffo. Happy Christmas and enjoy your stitching.
That is such a great idea! I never would have thought of that. Brilliant! Happy Christmas to you as well!
Congratulations on 2k. Your mom Christmas tree is beautiful. I hope you had a wonderful Christmas.
Thank you! You too!
Love, love, love your videos!!!! Can you, sometime, show how you stitch on the shirts? And show what all you use? I think that is something I might try sometime. I LOVE Mickey and the gang!!!
Oh, thank you! I'm glad you're enjoying the videos! Yes, a lot of people have been asking, so I might try to do a tutorial video next year. Stay tuned for that!
As someone who spent this ENTIRE year stitching only gifts, I feel you! My plans for 2024 include always having one or two active wips just for me, me, me. Because it does take a little of the shine off the process. Love your channel.
So true! Important to have a balance. I'm glad you are enjoying the channel so far!
Thank you for sharing! Fabulous finish! Merry Christmas and Happy Stitching!
Thank you! Merry Christmas and Happy Stitching to you as well!
You have chosen some awesome projects for 2024
Your GANG of followers will definitely enjoy watching your progress
Thank you. I really am excited about what I have coming up!
Good luck with your training for the Disney run, my niece goes there many times a year to run in 3 of the 4 races. Love the bling they hand out when you race. I would love to have the gang come and visit me, your art is beautiful too. Thanks
Thank you so much! That's great that your neice does Disney races too. They really are so much fun :). Happy Holidays!
Hope you had a great holiday and hope you have fun at Disney with your Mom. You have some great projects especially Mickey and the Gang. I have enjoyed all of your videos and hope you keep making them. Happy New year and happy stitching
Thank you very much! I appreciate the kind words and I'm so glad you're enjoying the videos. Happy New Year to you as well!
Hello there what amazing gang of wips yiu have. Mickey is lovely sadly in uk our kids are not so nice. Keep up the good work look forward to your nice update.
Thanks so much 😊. It has been a fun stitch and I'm happy to do it for my mom!
I'm still amazed at the sweatshirt. It's so cool. I don't like deadlines either (I think I actually said that in my last video 😆).
Oh thank you so much, I appreciate that!
2000 subscribers!!! Congratulations!🎈🍾🎉
Wishing you a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
Gang.
Thank you so much and Merry Christmas to you as well!
Love the Sailor Moon piece, though I wouldn’t be a fan of the count.
NeedleLotDesigns is one of my favourites, so happy you found her and are enjoying her.
Also thanks to you, I found and got my own copy of The Kiss!
Thank you! Yes, I don't want to do another 12 count ha. So glad you got the Kiss as well! Definitely share your progress on it once you get it started!
Hello from Tennessee! It was wonderful to stitch this morning while watching your flosstube. Your work is amazing! I'm glad you're part of the stitching gang. 😉.
Thank you so much! I'm glad you are enjoying the channel and I'm happy to be a part of the gang ;)
I loved seeing the Christmas tree behind you..very festive🎄. I also don t do well with a timeline for gifts,I find it stressful so I just try to give it plenty of time before i need to complete. I love your Mickey and the GANG...its so colorful. Take care and enjoy your time with family. Merry Christmas!
I really think giving plenty of time is the key :). Merry Christmas to you and yours as well!
Hi Andrew
I am a New Subscriber to your Channel. I have Subscribed to your Channel.
I have a Floss Tube Channel as well called Linda Klinedinst.
I love your Mom’s Christmas Tree - this is so pretty.
Congratulations on Finishing Sailor Moon - this is so pretty.
Love all of your WIPS - they are so pretty. Great Progress on them.
I love Mickey and the Gang - they are so cute and so adorable.
I don’t like deadlines either - I never did. When it comes to stitching I don’t have deadlines. It does take the joy out of stitching.
I love Heaven And Earth Designs - been buying their charts for years. I am stitching on Once Upon A Fairytale - the Artist is Aimee Stewart. I am stitching mine on 25 Count Lugana - 1 x 1 Full Cross. I am still on Page One.
I have a Lavendar and Lace Chart Started - Nantucket Rose - Marilyn Leavitt Imblum - Marilyn is the Mother to Nora Corbett who designed the Mirabilia Ladies.
Some Stitchers will use Petite Treasure Braid instead of the Krenik.
I have been to Corning New York - Been to Corning - where the Glass Factory place is at. I don’t know if the Corning Glassware Place is letting tourist walk through or no now. That was the highlight of our New York Trip. We went as a family and we loved that place. It is so fascinating to walk through there and watch them blow Glass and shape it into a design of some sort.
Take Care
Merry Christmas
Happy New Year
❤️🤗🧵🪡🧵🎄❤️
Hi Linda! Nice to meet you and I'm glad you are enjoying the channel! I did not know that Marilyn was Nora's mother. So much talent there! I will look into Petite Treasure braids as I've heard they are easier to use :). I haven't been to Corning yet, but it's on my list. Merry Christmas and Happy Stitching!
Also, I don’t know where you are in Florida but Brick City Stitchers is supposed to be one of the best stores in the country. Worth a trip in case you run out of projects. 😉
Ooh I will have to see how close they are to me! Thank you for the recommendation!
Our gang said congratulations on your 2 K, Have a great holiday.
Thank you! Happy Holidays to you as well!
Congratulations Andrew on 2000! I’m watching your video stitching some ornaments that I have to get done by Christmas in a few days. I’m starting to panic. I agree I don’t enjoy the stitching when I’m pressured to get it done. I always say I have to start earlier and here I am again rushing at the end. Well I decided for 2024 I’m stitching Christmas all year. Hopefully I’ll have lots of ornaments to choose for friends next Christmas. Yeah probably won’t. Haha Your stitching is wonderful. Merry Christmas!!
Thank you so much! Yes, so you feel the pressure as well haha. I hope you find some good chunks of stitching time and don't get too stressed! Maybe an ornament each month next year? :)
You Are so talented, so Nice to be in Florida in the Xmas, here in Norway is very much weather ! I love your Disney gang 💞🙏😍 merry Xmas 🎁🤗💞
Thank you so much, I really appreciate that. Merry Christmas to you as well!
Welcome to the gang! it's so great to see how quickly you have endeared yourself to the cross stitch community.
Thank you! It's been so lovely and I'm having so much fun!
If you want to laugh through a Flosstube episode, watch Running With Scissors Stitching with Jane and Julie.
Thank you for the recommendations! I will check them out.
Winston is soooo cute! I'm obsessed with your advent calendar - I need to find it for my husband next year. Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!!
Thank you Bernadette! The calendar was such a great surprise and I'm really enjoying it so far. It was called 30 days of Japan (I'm not sure where he got it though!). Merry Christmas to you as well!!
Hey I’m doing WIPGO for the first time too, I’ve made my goals based on theme rather than specific projects. So one is to do 5 days on a design I bought at Etsy for example. I am hoping that I will get lots accomplished but I wont be beating myself over the head if I don’t. Got a few “firsts” lined up to - my first Long Dog is on the list! I can’t wait! hope you had an amazing Christmas and i look forward to hearing from you again in 2024 - take care, Nic x
Hi Nic! Those sound like great plans! I keep looking at Long Dog and know I want to start one someday. Which one are you doing?
Congratulations on 2K subscribers! Hope you have a Merry Christmas!
Thank you so much and Merry Christmas to you as well!
Kick the deadlines to the curb!
Agreed!
I love your Micky and the gang. Love seeing all your stitching.
Thank you so much!
I just found your channel, by RUclips suggestion. Congratulations on hitting that milestone!
Awesome! Thank you! Happy you found the channel!
Merry Christmas! Your FFO looks great, love the Sailor Moon piece! And I just love the colors on your Odyssey SAL! :D
Thank you so much! Appreciate that :). Merry Christmas to you as well!
Hi Andrew, enjoyed your video! Not sure what part of Florida you're in but there is a new shop called Inspired Needle located in Palm Coast, Florida. They used to be located in Illinois, which I visited but recently moved to Florida. The owner is very nice! Just thought I'd let you know. 😊 Congratulations on 2000+ subscribers! Have a Merry Christmas! 🎄
Thank you so much. Oh wow, thank you for telling me! I am actually in Palm Coast!! I will definitely be checking that one out :). I hope you have a Merry Christmas as well!
I love so much the gang on your sweat shirt. It’s so a good idea, your mother will be very pleased.
Thank you!!
18ct aida is also my favorite to stitch on! Loving your progress on Odyssey! My WIPGO board has projects on it that need to be complete by the end of the year, so the same projects are on there more than once and when they are called, they get 1000 stitches. I don't have 24 wips either! LOL
Love that idea! That will help you get to more finishes this year!
My 12k went great on Saturday. Got a 10k coming up January 6th! My friend and I are doing 6 races in 6 months. We are half way there. I also want to start a Mira in 2024 but im struggling deciding which one.
Congratulations!! I'm so glad to hear it went well! Hopefully you had nice weather for it. Love that you're doing 6 races in 6 months! Keep it up! You definitely should and join our hashtag so we can watch your progress as well! There's so many good ones to choose from so I know it's tough ha
Merry Christmas to you and yours
Have a wonderful holiday!
Merry Christmas to you as well!
I have always been a fan of Mickey and the gang they were friends since childhood. Congratulations on your subscriber milestone. I LOVE the curry fabric you are using for the Odyssy piece!
Thank you so much! I really am happy with the Odyssey piece :). Happy stitching!!
Enjoy being in Florida! So your NY start … Gorgeous. I have to say that I started my New Year start yesterday. MFE No Time Like The Present. Picked my two colors. Same shades of green as you!! Different numbers but looks pretty close. My darker green isn’t as dark as 890 but still, so fun :) And my fabric is darker, I was debating a lighter so I’m super excited to watch yours come to life. Happy Holidays and good luck finishing your sweatshirt 😊
Oh that's amazing! Great minds think alike. I'd love to see your progress on No Time Like the Present!
Love all the work that you have done. My son loves Greek mythology and I might have to join the Sal because I would love to stitch it for him along with the story. As for deadlines, yes it’s a mood killer. I find I tend to procrastinate when there is a deadline; I tend to wait till the end and then stress to finish on time. I love schedules and planning though 🤷🏼♀. I love the sweatshirt of Mickey and the Gang and never thought of even attempting to cross stitch on clothes. I take forever to figure out where I want to start on Aida, it would take me years to get the placement right to stitch on clothes. Great job. Merry Christmas to you and yours.
Thank you so much! I highly recommend the Odyssey SAL as it's really a lovely stitch. And each week with the pattern you get a lot of information about the story which makes it more interesting. It does take a while to get things centered on the shirt, but it's worth it ha!
Have a fabulous Christmas! Good luck on your multiple races as well. Just a heads up in future you might want to do your Miras on a 28 count fabric. The beads lay better on 28 count usually. Possibly because hand dyed fabrics tend to shrink a bit when dyed. I usually do a test bead or two on the edge of whatever fabric I am going to use to see how they lay.
I'm doing WIPGO again this year. LOL Hopefully more successfully than this year. I do categories for mine. So 5 categories spread over the board. Or 4 categories and a focus piece this year. My categories are Halloween, HAED, Smalls, Choice, and my focus piece is to finish Kringle. I just switch up the goals aside for Kringle which is to complete one window. This way I can stitch on whatever I feel like in that category.
I hope you had a great Christmas as well! Thank you for the advice on Mira's. I'll keep that in mind and maybe do a testing of beads. That's a great plan for WIPGO. I like the idea of categories. Sounds like a fun challenge for the year!
🎉 Congrats on your 2K subscriber milestone. You do such an amazing job on your video and stitching, so prolific! I also have Jacob’s Fruits of Plenty but just have to start his 2024 SAL. “No Time” just speaks to me so much! Hope you have an awesome time at Run Disney.
Thank you so much! That is so kind. I also love Jacob's "no time". He is really so talented! Hope you enjoy stitching that one!
Wow, huge congrats on 2000 subs!!! 🎉😆 And also wow to those fabulous new starts you have planned for 2024 😄 I can't wait to follow your progress! I have far too many things lined up for next year and yet I'm still trying to figure out if I can cram in 1 or 2 more projects 😂
Thank you so much! This has been so much fun! Oh I'm the exact same as you. So many things I want to start and figure out how I can fit in a few more ha. Looking forward to your new year starts as well! Have a wonderful Christmas!
I filled my wipgo board with things i'm working on and i figure as i finish them, i can always replace them. but, yes, that means i only have, like, 6 things repeated 4x.
That works as well! I love that everyone can make Wipgo work for them!
Congratulations on 2000 subscribers! Merry Christmas
Thank you so much and Merry Christmas to you as well!
Congratulations on 2000 subscribers. I love Mickey and the gang. I have never stitched on clothes before, I’m planning to try that in 2024.
Thank you! That's an awesome goal for 2024! Let me know how it goes for you :)
great video! Happy Holidays ❤️🎄🌻👍🏼
Thank you so much and Happy Holidays to you as well!
Hi Andrew! Congrats on your 2K subscribers! 👏🏻👏🏻 I love the curry fabric too on your Odyssy piece!
I will need to start a new Wedding sampler in January as my niece is getting married in August. I have a few in mind🤔. Enjoy the holiday season 🦃🎄and all the best in the New Year! Cheers! 🎉🥂🙏🏼🧑🏻🦰🇨🇦
Thank you so much! Oh that sounds lovely, I'm sure she will appreciate it. Yes, start it early!!! :). Happy Holidays!
Great projects, I am the same as you not even stitching a year, wanted to get more WIPs started, only have 3 currently. Hope sh3n you are back hime you will show up close your Sailor moon finish, she looks spectacular
Yes, I'm trying to build up my WIPs as well, but don't think I ever want too many as it would get stressful. I will try to show Sailor Moon when I'm back.
Merry Christmas kiddo.❤😊
Merry Christmas to you as well!
Nice progress on all your projects. That bull on Odyssey sal looks impressive, it is indeed a mythological creature. As for your plans, can that sal be a first Nora Corbett as well? I love both Nora and Mira series, but I somehow I prefer the fairies under the Nora Corbett line.
Happy stitching and merry Christmas, enjoy your time spent back home and have a great start into 2024!
Thank you so much! I really enjoyed stitching the bull. That project is just so much fun! Yes, please join in with your first Nora Corbett as well! I think that still counts :). Happy Stitching!
I just found your channel this morning and I’m so glad I did. I also have the winter wonderland SAL from Caterpillar cross stitch, but because of deadline stitching projects I have yet to start it. I wish you a very happy Christmas , happy stitching and see you next time.
I'm glad you enjoyed the video! The Wonderland SAL is lovely to stitch, I hope you are able to get it started! Deadline stitching is tough this time of year. Happy stitching
That Christmas tree looks so beautiful!!! Love it!
Thank you so much! I do have ambitious plans ha. I don't know how many of them will get finished this year, but it's a great year of starts for me. I definitely will have a few ornaments in there as well :). I hope you have a wonderful Christmas as well!
Oh and... I agree :)
I love your videos. Its nice to watch someone who is fairly new to this cross stitch adventure as I am.. Hope you have an amazing holiday. Your projects look amazing. I love the Mickey and the Gang project. Its so neat to see how it is comming along.
Thank you so much! It's definitely a fun journey especially here in the beginning. Have a wonderful holiday as well!
Congratulations. U deserve those 2000 subscribers. Great channel. I usually don't have deadlines with my stitching. I've tried in the past and never have managed it. Love the Mickey & the gang chart. Love how u put them on sweat shirts. Yr sailor moon came out fantastic. Take care. Xx
Thank you! I'm really glad you're enjoying the channel!
Congrats on your 2000 subscribers!!!! I also do not like deadlines but they do encourage us to get things done in a reasonable amount of time. Your plans for 2024 sound challenging but I have every confidence that you will get them done. Merry Christmas to you and all those you love. Give Winston a little pat on the head for me.
Thank you so much! You're right, they do help us to stay in a timely manner. I just don't like the pressure at the end ha. I'll tell Winston you said hello! :). Merry Christmas!
Hi Andrew! Congrats on your great subscriber numbers. Yes, deadlines can take the joy out of our stitching a little, you’re not alone in feeling that. It can be hard to get the balance right especially when we love to stitch for gifts. You have fun plans for 2024, I hope you’ll enjoy them all and find motivation in stitching along with others and through WIPGO. Merry Christmas!
Hi Sarah! Thank you so much. This has really been so much fun to join the community of stitchers. Glad I'm not alone with the pressure of deadlines :). I'll also be watching your starts for 2024! I'm still so impressed by the idea of starting 50 projects. It's awesome and I am very much looking forward to seeing them. I hope you and your family are feeling better and everyone will be healthy for the rest of the holiday season! Merry Christmas!
Congratulations on your reaching 2000 subscribers 🎉🎉 I really like your projects and your plans for 2024. I’m with you on deadlines. Stitching is supposed to be fun not stressful. Gang. See you next time, happy stitching 🪡😊🎄☃️
Thank you so much! I'm glad you are enjoying the channel so far! I definitely agree stitching needs to be fun not stressful :)
Great video, Happy New Year to you and yours. Gang
Thank you! Happy New Year to you as well!
Congratulations on reaching 2000 subscribers!. It'll be 3K before you know it. I'm so happy for you. Looking forward to you next video. Love how the Mickey and friends is coming out.
Thank you so much and I'm glad you're enjoying the videos. I'm having a lot of fun interacting with you all! Happy stitching!
Congratulations for reaching 2000 subscribers already . The gang and I enjoy your stitch selections and hearing about your recent reentry into the stitching community.
Thank you so much ;). I'm happy to be enjoying this with you all!
Congratulations on your subscriber count! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. I’m like you and find that when I have to have any of my craft projects done by a deadline it feels more like a chore and not as enjoyable. I’m still very pleased with the finished product but sort of relieved to be done it.
Thank you! I couldn't agree more. I still like the final product, but it does feel like a chore. Glad I'm not alone in that :). Merry Christmas!
Great video Andrew. I’m not surprised that you have already reached more the 2000 subscribers. You are such a pleasure to watch. I love your Sailor Moon finish for your boyfriend. The frame he picked is perfect it really makes the picture pop. I also the love your Mickey and friends sweatshirts. I bet your mom really loved the one you made for her. Enjoy your time with your family and have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Looking forward to your next FlossTube
Thank you so much! I'm glad to hear you're enjoying these videos. I love sharing what I've been working on with you all. Merry Christmas to you as well and Happy Stitching!
Good to see you and the Disney gang back again. Congrats on the 2k subbies. Can’t wait to see you and your mom wearing it together. Happy holidays!🎄
Thank you so much!! Yes, you will see us wearing them soon :). Merry Christmas!
