    Audrey - once again, fabulous stitches! I finished Lucy Calcutt 1825 in 2024 and she is one of my favorites! And Ann Tong Uffindell is on the list to start & finish in 2025! Look forward to your next flosstube!

      I think I’ve finally made a decision on the Calcutts so I can order fabric and floss and get started! But dying to start Isabella Uffindell as well…and a million other samplers 😅

    I totally agree with you about the scissors. I have used Gingher, Dovo, Premax, Sajou, Cohana etc but my favorite is the golden forge scissors I bought from Hoop and Frame. Love love them…solid pair of sharp and perfect length scissors. Great video! Always enjoy them.

    I came across your channel and i am so pleased. I too come from a family who have encouraged and supportive of my cross stitching but dont really understand why i breathe and live for the art of cross stitching. Even better that you stitching samplers mostly from Hands Across the Sea I too mostly stitch these. Your switching is exquisite and I was awestruck. Loved your chat feels thats your talking to me over a cup of tea. Cant wait till your next video. Doreen x

    I too plan to stitch (which you and I choose many of the same charts) Plumstreets Salem Sampler. I'm in total agreement with you on the Cotton Mother quote and will substitute something else. Old Cotton was all about initiating fear. No need to scare children...or big children. 😊

    • @StitchStitchBead
      @StitchStitchBead  День назад +1

      I learned a lot of interesting things in my research of the Mather family and the Witch Trials in general. Interesting time in our history, for sure. Seems weird to commemorate it in cross stitch but I love it anyway and am sure a lot of people will stitch it this year! Let me know what quote you go with; I'd be interested to know what other people use! Thanks for watching! 😊

    • @bethhuisman1722
      @bethhuisman1722 День назад

      @StitchStitchBead I'm a history book nerd, I guess. I'm also a Christian. But mass hysteria and strict religious rules resulted in the death of innocent people. Perhaps thats why we love our reproduction samplers so much. For what we learn...the good and the bad. Feel free to throw your book recommendations out on your videos. I started the same HATS blessing sampler for this month. We stitchers have to stay well rounded! Thanks Audrey for your videos.

    • @StitchStitchBead
      @StitchStitchBead  2 дня назад

      Nicola recommends Charlotte Entwistle for new sampler stitchers and I would add Alice Tippett to that list. Small enough to tackle quickly but with enough color changes and motifs to keep things interesting. But if you find something big and beautiful that you love, don't shy away from it! HATS charts are lovely. Happy New Year and very happy stitching to you! 🥰

  • @WendyDicranian

    The start on Anne is beautiful. I agree with your son about the frame on Hannah Campbell. The color showcases the stitching and the subtle detail along the edge is enhancing not distracting. The frame on Maria Ewin is gorgeous as well. The thread colors are so striking. You are such a fast stitcher. Thank you for the videos.

    Thanks for another great video. Love seeing all your progress and beautiful stitching. I’m also working Isabella Uffindell. I’ve stitched Ann. I will say they are very different size wise….i also wanted to stitch them on the same fabric and ended up going up a count for Isabella as I wanted them to be closer to the same size when framing. And for stash purposes Fat Quarter Shop has the larger oval hoops in stock!!! Happy stitching!!

    • @StitchStitchBead
      @StitchStitchBead  2 дня назад

      I looked at the Uffindell sisters and know that Isabella is noticeably longer but I really prefer to stitch on 45 count so I'll use that same count for both sisters. I love that they share a few similar elements so even though they're different sizes they still look like a pair. 😊 And thanks for the tip about FQS! I'll check it out! Happy New Year!

    I started Anne Thomas in December as well using the Vicki Clayton silks on 46ct Atelier by Number12StitchCo, a lighter fabric but colours are showing up. Absolutely love this stitch, been looking at it for years. The model stitcher Leona is in my Guild so is a handy resource for questions. Love your fabric choice. Colours pop.
    Talking of Surfine, I've stitched AKGIT on 53/63 with Surfine and didn't have any dramas with it. At first some of the pin stitch starts were dodgy but after so many thread starts I got it down to a t.

    • @StitchStitchBead
      @StitchStitchBead  День назад

      So glad you started Anne as well! She's such a beauty. I stitched Carmelle Azzopardi with surfine and made a point on that project to keep my back neat and tidy and used a lot of pin stitches. It worked but I just prefer the boldness of 100.3. Glad to have surfine, though, because it is an amazing thread! Thank you so much for watching and very happy stitching on Anne and your other projects! 😊

How special to have him involved…your stitching on Neeltje Cornelia van Buren is simply incredible what a packed border sampler. I have used Hoop & Frame never disappoint….love your pear stitch I enjoy painter’s thread too..I was laughing out loud at your description of watching Thread Gremlins especially when Ryan gets involved what a hoot 😂 wishing you all the best with your stitching enjoy have fun…hey Thanks for mention so humbling….congrats on all new subscribers!

    What a great video. Just catching up on videos and your last video was great too. Anne Thomas is stunning and the linen is perfect. I like the frames you chose for your projects. Just a thought but Vikki Clayton has a conversion for Lucy Calcutt but I am sure someone can do a conversion for you. Love your 2025 plans! Enjoy your stitching

    • @StitchStitchBead
      @StitchStitchBead  53 минуты назад

      Thanks for watching and for your kind comments! The conversion I was thinking of for Lucy Calcutt was one to 100.3s because I enjoy using that silk more than Soie D'Alger and my understanding is that Vikki dyes D'Alger or something very much like it. I am planning to stick to solid colors for Lucy as I want that pop, especially with the pinks! I'll share my choices when I finally get it all kitted up! 😊 Happy stitching!

    Great Flosstube! ❤ I stitched Mary Hillier on 56, too. And if I remember correctly, I noticed the fabric size for 56 was listed as larger than 46. 🤔 Back in the ‘90’s, I was ALL about the Elizabeth Bradley’s. (Yeah, I’m old). I bought them as kits and I think you still can get them in kit form online. I think she has small kits available and they’re great because the canvas is already stamped with the pattern and they’re great include plenty of wools. I’m off to try Thread Gremlins…..Happy 2025!

      Sadly, I have not finished Emeline Hotchkiss. I talked with Kim (fellow SAL host) about her recently and neither of us, though we love her, are in any hurry to finish her. When I've made some progress I will be sure to pull her out, though! Probably sometime within the next couple of months. Thanks for asking! Happy stitching! 😊

    I really enjoy your flosstubes. Your finishes are gorgeous. You are so embedded in learning to improve your stitching. As a stitcher for 50 years, I enjoy watching your journey.
    I am anxious to hear the quote you are subbing on Salem Sampler. I have also read literature. While I find the verse thoughtful and truthful, I find it creepy to be quoting C Mather. Will you share the quote you will sub?

    • @StitchStitchBead
      @StitchStitchBead  2 дня назад

      Thank you! In talking about the Salem Sampler, I suggested a quote by Thomas Maule rather than the one by Cotton Mather as charted, but of course I will be sure to share what I finally put in that space. Thank you so much for watching and for your kind comments! Happy new year! 😊

I’m sure you’ve told the answer to my question previously but I’m new to collecting some of the Soie Gobelins (thanks to Laura!) and I need to store them. What are the boxes that you showed your 100.3’s in and where can I get some? Thanks so much and I think I’m looking forward to meeting you at Sampler Symposium? I hope I got that right… anyway, thanks so much!

      Hi, Lauri! I use Gutermann boxes (Amazon has a few different sizes) and they are wonderful for kitting up 100.3s for different projects. And yes, what an enabler our Laura is 😂 Unfortunately I am not going to SS this year as I was hoping to (and did!) get into Nicola Parkman's retreat in England in October. But I'd love to go back to the Attic someday! Hopefully soon! Enjoy SS! It's awesome! 😊
