I actually enjoy the different call centers , as long as it’s an occasional occurrence. Through them I’ve “been” to India, Philippines, South Africa, Indonesia…and many other places. Fascinating.
Love your outlook ❤️❤️
The darker green fabric for your Halloween stitch!
Great catching up with you today and enjoying watching your video have a great day and happy stitching 😊🪡🧵🤗🤩
Thank you! You too!❤️
Thank you for sharing. The full coverage Paris stitch is my favorite.
Hi Anna. Thank you for a very interesting episode. Just wanted to let you know I really have enjoyed books by Freida McFadden. The first one I read was The Teacher. It was very good, with lots of surprises to the very end. Also The Housemaid is very good. I think that is the first of the series.
I have been watching you since the pandemic started and you are one of my favorites. Back then I enjoyed watching the episodes when you were filming in your camper. You always make me smile!! Thanks for doing your channels. I enjoy both. 😊
I still write checks to my plumber/electrician and my cpap doctor. The only reason I do that is that they are not up to the digital day yet. I chose black fabric for a really bright, cheerful pattern and it looks gorgeous but that black fabric is a burger bear. Love you.
Hi Anna, love the visit this week. I like the full coverage Paris stitch. Happy Stitching 🙋♀️
Loved the video today Anna, the biscorno’s are stunning. I vote for the mini Eiffel Tower stitch and the darker green fabric for the T.pot stitch.
Hi Anna. Eiffel Tower is my pick and the darker green fabric. Love the pattern.
I always love your jibberjabber🥰. I love your experience with the phone calls to get the address. I love that you were proud of yourself. It is so important to recognize and focus on the positive things in our lives…..less judgement. I love the small cross stitch of just the Eiffel Tower. I also love the Tiny Modernist chart you showed, definitely on the darker green. Sounds like a love a lot of things from your visit today 😄 it is always a pleasure to visit with you!
❤️❤️
Thank you for the visit :). I'm glad to hear that you are using your frame and practicing the two-hand stitch method. I do love when I can stitch with both hands. I think I would look for a darker green for your tiny modernist - I'm sure that with changing thread colors, you could do it on the lighter green but it would have a much different vibe. I like the full coverage, postage stamp looking Paris chart. it's so cute. I haven't read that author yet, but I do love a good mystery! I am not caught up in reading all of them, but have read the first 4-5 of Frank Tallis's Max Liebermann Series set in Vienna at the turn of the 20th century. I love an Agatha Christie! But for something a little edgier, not gory, not full of bad language, I really like these. PBS has turned some of them into 2-part tv shows.
You have given me a lot to ponder❤️❤️🙏
the tiny one for the tiny one for the Effeil tower. Love the spooky tea pot, and definitely the darker green. Thanks for the update on the everything.
Thanks for watching!❤️❤️
❤❤❤ thank you. Happy stitch 😊😊😊
Definitely the full coverage mini! Plus, you ran the steps! It'll mean more.
Oh Anna I love the full coverage mini of the Eiffel Tower. That’s my vote!
Major FOMO here from missing yesterday's gathering at A&T. Thank goodness that my great granddaughter's T-ball tournament is over! ( They did really well!) Now I can plan a trip up to Portland to get in on some of the cross stitch fun with others. Those Biscornu's (sp?) are truly beautiful! XO
Yes grand kids come first❤️
The tea pot is a very cute chart. Yes, you should find the darker green fabric for contrast.... Or change some colours in the chart😜
Enjoy your stitching and reading.
Greetings from Melaka
It is such a challenge for me to do a floss conversion 😊
@@stitchroadie4076 I know but what to do?
Wow, those biscornos are amazing, lots of great ideas. Fox and rabbit makes a dark green fabric, I believe it's called seaweed, and it might look good with that project you want to work on.
Thanks for the info!❤️
Read the books in order. They build off of each other. I do love that olive green with the Halloween stitch. Thanks for your positive sweet voice in my day.
Thank you! Will do!
ove the quilt behind you - amazing work!!
Thank you! 😊
Oh Anna, you r way to PC...LOL!!!! You deserve 3 stars 😘 so happy to find you again. I lost u for a few weeks, so I deleted the subscription and resubscribed...all is great again. Love you and you bring alllll of us so much JOY and LAUGHTER. Enjoy ur day 💓
Welcome back!❤️❤️❤️
Hi Anna - what a great FT! I love that pale celadon more than the called for - it's a beautiful colour! I also prefer the small postage stamp first Eiffel Tower - so pretty :) happy stitching
Thank you so much!
I love the Eiffel tower stitch. Also really need the darker green fabric for the other stitch.
Love the Sppoky Teapot! I vote for the tall Eiffel Tower chart.
Always fun to listen to your chatter! I think you should do the full coverage mini Eiffel Tower.
You always make my day. Love the full coverage Paris.
Oh thank you!❤️❤️
As always I enjoy having my coffee with you! I love the tiny Eiffel Tower stitch, it’s just so darn cute. Prairie Schooler Santas are such great projects. I’m glad you survived the challenges of the two call centers you were dealing with, sometimes so frustrating. The Biscornu finishes are awesome and the 2 samplers are so wonderful. Thanks for sharing and take care!
Great and fun video…appreciate all of ‘life’s insight’… and always providing a positive spin 😉. I vote for dark green ( one of my favorite colors) and postage stamp Eifel Tower( great memories of all your training to challenge those steps 👍) still have your award from the challenge… somehow apply to your stitch (possibly)
Also; i was intrigued about this lamp you were mentioning… but could not quite understand the name… i will keep searching… thank you.
Thank you for stopping by 😊 the lamp is on Father’s Quarter Shops site and is called the Anita Lamp❤️
As always thanks for visiting Anna. My vote is for the Eiffel Tower. Besides being a wonderful memory for you the colors with full coverage is absolutely beautiful. I like the dark green fabric for the Tiny Modernist pattern. Think you will be happier stitching it on the darker. Don’t think it will have quite the same effect on Celadon. Take care. See you next time.
Thanks for voting❤️❤️
Anna I was watching/ listening to you babble and I got my dishwasher unpacked and my kitchen cleaned up with your company! Thank you so much for keeping me company! It made the chore more enjoyable!😂 My daughter got me started on Freida McFadden, I’ve read 2 so far and a 3 rd is in my plié! I’ve read Never Lie, Ward D and both were page turners and kept me wondering what would happen next! I don’t know about the one you mentioned but I think you should give it a try! My next one is The Locked Door ! She has several books to choose from, I hope you enjoy it and will read a few more ! I also like Colleen Hoover, I’m reading Too late right now, it’s a bit different than her others but still keeps me reading beyond my bedtime !😂.
It is wonderful to be so engrossed you can’t put it down!!!
I vote for the Eiffel Tower. The darker green - nix the celadon - won't have the same vibe at all. Have a great time at Acorn's tomorrow.
Hi Anna, love this episode! First, I'm so excited to hear Beth finished charting your anniversary stitch, I'm gonna have to chat with you or Beth cause I'm gonna need to stitch it for my mom lol. Second, I love that Women of Honor Sampler... adding it to my ever growing list of things I need to stitch. And third, I love both the Paris charts you you got and you can't go wrong with either one. I think I would have to choose Pretty Little Paris as my favorite though.
Thank you for stopping by❤️❤️
Great job again Anna. I’m voting for the full coverage Eiffel Tower and the dark green fabric for your teapot stitch. As always, have fun!
I vote for the traditional Eiffel Tower that's full coverage. Think the Spooky Teapot would look best on the darker green. :-) Can't help you with the mystery/thriller. :-)
I vote for the Cardinals Street design.
I think I would use the darker green for the Teapot piece.
We are headed for a heat wave this week in WI.
Marilyn
Darker green for Tiny Modernist. And in therapy, one is encouraged to leave out phrases such as “coulda, shoulda, woulda”. Happy stitches.
I am leaving those out❤️
Hi anna, I love the full coverage Eiffel Tower. And anything by Freida McFadden is great!😊
My daughter just started that book. Sounds interesting and intriguing based on the cover. I’m going to read it after her.
Loved meeting you and the gang…thank you for sharing your space and great conversation…and for allowing me to snoop thru your stitching containers …look forward to meeting up again…love my acorn and threads bag…I m now way cool too…Oregon is such a beautiful state and people!!
Can’t wait for the July zoom!
Anna, thanks for the visit and your sharing. I vote for the full coverage Paris.
You could do one Paris stitch for the regular Olympics and the other for the special Olympics. 🤷🏻♀️
Thank you for the visit got to spend some time this morning with you before heading out to set up for a community yard sale 😮
Great idea!❤️❤️
The Eifel Tower small chart looks best to me.
When we were in Paris we were hurry hurry hurry and that was hard. If we go again we need more time.
Enjoy Sisters
I like the postage stamp one the best.
I think you should do the Paris memory you enjoy most… like the Eiffel Tower… I saw the memories as you spoke!
I love your videos !! Thank u for sharing, I’m from way down south in MS, so I love for u to tell all about your area. I just heard of this book from an author in MS ,The Death Letter, by J. Stephen Beam. U may enjoy it. Because of u, I started watching Ariadne Zurcher and now I’m loving wool work ! Thank u again
I love both of the Paris stitch possibilities that you've chosen but my favorite is the tiny one with the Eiffel Tower. I just think it would look so cute stitched up and put in a little square frame and to sit on one of your bookshelves in front of your books. It's so cute and would suit to become a unique little bookshelf treasure. I would prefer some darker green fabric for the Spooky Teapot just like the fabric shown in the picture. I love the pictures of the biscornus that you posted at the end. I've never stitched a biscornu but really want to try my first one soon. Yours is looking so beautiful. If you're looking for a good mystery series, I would recommend Louise Penny. I don't think that you have to read her books in order but they are all enjoyable and I'm glad that I started from her first book in her series called 'the Inspector Gamache series". She is a canadian author and her books are funny, light, yet thought provoking enough, entertaining, and very well written. Thank you for another wonderful video! Oh my, I've added such a chatty comment this time around.
I love Louise Penny! And yes the Eiffel Tower on my bookcase!!
Loved our visit today thanks. God bless.
Full coverage Paris. I think it would have a more personal feeling for you. The other one is cute.
Thanks for the visit! I love to zoom, its fun chatting together. Margaret is such a great host and does such beautiful stitching. Also all of you are huge enablers! ❤😂 But l have a few HAEDS to complete. Most of the fabrics are just soooo pretty. Sadly import costs are too expensive. Anyway just love that Jeannine is available to show the latest patterns. That full coverage is so pretty but l love the other one because its nice and bright! Huge hugs from South Africa. ❤
I love that you hang out with us…someday maybe a trip to vacation here?!❤️❤️
Anna, lovely video as always. I have just read Freida McFaddens The Inmate and The Teacher. Both were very good but The Inmate was my favorite.
Oh thank you!❤️
The mini! If you ran all those steps, you can stitch all over.
The Violin Conspiracy by Brendan Slocumb, is a book to not put down till you're done..........GREAT page turner. It keeps you on the edge of your seat on many levels. I'd rather not say what "levels" those are, because it's something that grows on you and developes page after page. You have to experience it for yourself.
Have requested it from the library🙏❤️
The full coverage Eiffel Tower is my preferred one! I liked your comment about it looking like a postage stamp--maybe you could add a scalloped postage-stamp border to it :)
That's a great idea! 🤔❤️
I started to say do the smaller Eiffel Tower because you might be able to complete it during the Olympics. But then you showed the Satsuma which I have in my pattern stash, so now I am very torn. But your story of training for running up the tower brings such a personal memory for you that I think that is still what I say. Do the tower.
🙏❤️
Evertotes has the perfect green linen, Pub Crawl.
Full coverage would be perfect! Have a great week
Thank you! You too!❤️
I like the non full coverage stitch.
I soo love visiting and stitching with you Anna!! I didn’t realize there was a zoom…I’ll be checking into that so I can visit from North Carolina and kinda feel like I’m at Acorns and Thread with you…and in Portland with my daughter and son! Amazing! I’ll be calling Janine this morning to see if there’s any more Cedar River linen left. You ran up the Eiffel Tower?! Amazing! What an accomplishment!! I like the Satsuma pattern! I did one similar of Portland for both my son and daughter and they loved them!! Happy stitching and thank you again for the joy and inspiration you give to me!! 🎶💕
I do love me some Satsuma St….🤔
Oh I understand about calling and getting someone that is in another country! I have to do it frequently at work. What really gets me is when it says “press 1 for English” and they don’t speak English! I would say the full coverage Paris. The other one needs the darker green. I have to check out mystery stitch along. Another great visit! Update…I saw FQS daily deal and hope it will work with spooky teapot, ordered both! You did your job of enabling! Should do a SAL.
🙏👍❤️
I think you will have to dye the green fabric darker if you don't find it. I like the Eifel 🗼 tower. Maybe G could bring his guitar and play for you while you stitch.😂. Have fun!
Great idea!!❤️❤️
Hi Anna! We have consumer cell service … only us help and escalating to a supervisor is ok :)
I love your Santa’s… you are sew right… a thread a days gets it done! Yay for almost Anna! What Anniversary will you and G be celebrating?
47❤️❤️
My daughter gave me the Housemaid books - you must read them in order. I couldn’t put it down!!! Read #1 in one day. Just starting the next! Cuts into the stitching time tho🤭
Oh wow! 🙏
Pretty little Paris!!
Hi Anna, it's me again. You responded to my previous comment already, so I'm adding another instead of just editing the other one. I found the two BBD Eiffel tower charts. One, "Souvenir of France" is free and if you go to the Geary's Fans of Blackbird Designs site, if you click on their "Chart Inventory" tab, you'll find a PDF and download it. The other one, the stocking, "Souvenir of Paris", unfortunately is out of print. It's in the "Joyeux Noel" book.
You know…I think I have that book🤔
⭐️ ⭐️ love you!
Back at you❤️
I always enjoy your videos, the chatting and the stitching. I personally prefer the Satsuma Street because I like the happy feelings her patterns give off. I agree with Debra, my husband and I both enjoy James Patterson. Happy Stitching!
❤️❤️
Thank you Anna. That was a treat. For the Olympics i would do the 2nd one with all the buildings. It looks really interesting. See ya next time.
❤️❤️
Thanks for the fun video. Have you seen the Franch/Paris design by JBW? It's pretty as well. I also have a book suggestion for you. We read it for our neighborhood book club and it is so good. The title is "Lost Man" by Jane Harper.
I'll check it out!❤️
Think the mini Paris and darker green for the spooky teapot. My daughter and I agree that there are better Poirots than Kenneth Branagh but he is a very good actor. I love Louise Penny 'Gamache' mystery books.
I enjoyed the Gamache mysteries 😊
Toys Anna. Hoops, stands.They’re our toys.
Hello, I vote for full coverage Eiffel Tower.😊💛🧡
Spooky Teapot…yeah, I think you need a darker green.
I would stitch the full coverage Eiffel Tower piece. It is such a cute size. You definitely need the weird green fabric. I just finished the audiobook book of The Measure. In this political climate, it left me with a really bad feeling. I was wondering about the housemaid series too. I think I saw the release of the most recent one in iBooks.
Didn’t The Measure just make you feel like something ominous is already happening 😱
@@stitchroadie4076 YES!!!
I love Sleeping Bear and need to get more 40 count for my stash!
It’s sooooo pretty😍
After all that work , adopt a real star from the sky. Paperwork can become excruciating 😢❤.
👏👏👏👏👏
Try the Kate Burkholder mysteries by Linda Castillo.
do the mini Paris first -then start the Satuma Paris :) I really want to learn how to stich on linen but I'm just not sure how to.
It’s not hard but when starting it is best to use a hoop or Q snap😊
@@stitchroadie4076 - Thank you for the tip!
Here you go I thought it was kind of ironic I just ran across it and thought I'd send it to you have a great day honey
Hi Anna, I like both Eiffel tower designs - the colors in the full coverage but the design of the Satsuma Street one. Have you looked at the Blackbird Designs ones? There's a little stocking ornament with the tower too, but I'm not sure which of their books it's in.
Oh no there is more!!!😍
❤❤❤
Oh man...Spooky Teapot! Must have. I will definitely get that dark green, which is Tumbleweed by Wichelt. It is "stiffer" than most, but that is my jam. I only stitch on Wichelt because I need my fabric to have serious body. Har. I adore that little full coverage Paris stitch. Since you said it looks like a postage stamp, I would have to make it with a edge that resembles a postage stamp, would not be that hard, I don't think LOL. I'll have to catch that version of Murder on the Nile movie. I have not seen that one. Movies about Egypt brings back one of my bucket list trips. My sister and I were in Egypt 24 years ago 😱😱late December 2000 to early January 2001. We spent three glorious weeks from Cairo to Aswan to Luxor and beyond. I have a 5" scrapbook to tell the tale. We were inside several pyramids and sailed down the Nile. So movies about that area flood me with memories of that magical adventure! Hugs from NE Ohio my friend!
I can’t wait to hear about your trip down the Nile❤️❤️
❤❤❤❤
I love your chattering! Please don’t slow your roll!
Any of the books by James Patterson. will satisfy your need for suspense. I love his books!
The Eiffel Tower mini.
You're braver than me. I'm still old school e.g. Cash or bank card 😅
I try to be brave but sometimes I have a tantrum
A needlepoint mystery series by Besty Devonshire
The first one.
I like both of the Paris charts. The satsuma street is more fun, but the other one is small and with the Quilter’s affair you could probably get the little one done.
I agree🙏
Pretty Little Paris, Satsuma Street is my choice.
Personally I much prefer the Satsuma Street Paris X
The Eiffel Tower gets my vote,
Hi we are in the hot summer time heat 97's here yesterday Saturday' I would do the full color one like it have you got the June yearly crosstich done for this month I'm working on that from Indiana
Sounds great!❤️❤️
Needlepoint murder books by Robert lanphar
I looked for the needle lamp on FQ website ( a lamp you have referred to)
I couldn’t find it
Could you post the website please ? Thanks
It’s called the Anita Lamp😊
And it's also your own little post office LOL
Full coverage mini it is more realistic
G won’t cross stitch??! Noooo! Why not?? Get him onboard 😂
I know!
🪡👍🏽
