@SquashHouseQuiltsandStitches Год назад

How nice to meet you, Birgit! I am so amazed and a bit jealous that you got to learn cross stitch at such an early age - in school, no less! I've been stitching and sewing since I was 8 thanks to a grandmother who was a men's tailor. After making quilts and clothing, embroidering many things, I took up cross stitch at the ripe "old" age of 70 in 2020. Talk about falling down the rabbit hole! I have two of your patterns kitted up and hope to start them soon. Your floss tube is delightful, and I look forward to seeing more of you! Hugs, Candace

@thewishingthorn Год назад

So nice to meet you Candace! I went through a quilting phase but never achieved success there - I could never master the machine. My first quilts were all hand-pieced.

I am so happy I happened upon your first Flosstube, Birgit! I am currently on the last row of Elizabeth Hall 1809. I love her!! I’m a monogamous stitcher, so it takes me some time to finish a sampler, and I usually only buy a pattern when I’m ready to start a new project, but I’ve purchased a couple of your patterns ahead of schedule because I loved them so much!

Congratulations on your first Flosstube, Birgit! You did a great job! It was like a walk down memory lane for me. I have several Emie Bishop pieces that I’ve done and I also have a Shepherd’s Bush round robin sampler. Those early days of connecting online with other stitchers were so exciting. I so wish you were staying in CT and starting the needlework shop you had planned. That would have been wonderful! I live in CT also, only about an hour from you. The new release you’re working on is so pretty. You choose lovely designs to reproduce. Thank you!

Hi Birgit! I loved seeing all of your beautiful work. I about fell out of my chair when you showed the Shepherd’s Bush round robin. I was in that round robin, too. Dilys stitched a band on mine, too!

New subscriber and I LOVED your video. I learned how to stitch when I was 10 years old back in the late 80s/early 90s from my grandmother who was a master needleworker, so your video was quite the trip down memory lane with the pink and greens, Shepherd Bush, flower threads, and early internet cross stitch chatting. I remember back in high school being active on an AOL message board that had Deb from Stitches 'N Things and a designer from Heaven and Earth Designs. Wonderful days. :) Absolutely love all your patterns. Can't wait to watch your future videos.

@RhubarbPatchStudio Год назад

Nice to meet you, Birgit! You have a lovely collection of things in this video and I’m looking forward to seeing more. I do videos also, and can I recommend you get a ring light or photography lamp for when you show your stitching? I’m by no means someone who knows what they’re doing, but I do think more light would make it easier for you to represent the colors in your work and in the antiques. Otherwise I enjoyed this first video very much and I like getting to see close-ups of the stitching! I have a Wishing Thorn design in my WIP pile that I will try to work on soon, now that you are making videos. Thanks for sharing your talents with us, and happy stitching! -Leah Noel

Hello Birgit. I was so glad to find this channel since I love Wishing Thorn patterns. Your unidentified WIP sampler is called Mary Crisp and she was in SANQ magazine. I too have this one started but not much further along than yours. I recognized her straight away. I stitched Little Bunny Shepherd at the first part of the year, but still am not settled on the berry tip colors. I went more pink for contrast against my linen, but I don't know if I like it that way. Still mulling it over.

@thewishingthorn Год назад

Wonderful! Mulling over it is always good. Sometimes walking away and looking at it the next day, or tape it briefly where you might want to hang it and see if it lends with it's surroundings. So glad you came! 🥰

That antique photo is amazing! The recent history of Germany and we immigrants breaks my heart. I try very hard to be proud of my German heritage, though. A couple of my grands earned a Purple Heart. I don’t really agree with their beliefs and the reason it was earned, however, I am encouraged to know that we all will learn from the history❤

@thewishingthorn Год назад

You should be proud. My Grandfather was an officer and not by choice. He was always very protective of his soldiers and never was happy with the wars. He always said that he and his men would never have made it out of Russia and would have starved to death if it wasn't for kindness the Russian people. We can not let the politicians define who we are as humans - then and now. I mean look at what is going on in this country. If you look for ugliness you will find it everywhere in the world no matter the country. I chose goodness & kindness always.🥰 I have not watched ANY news since 2016. If something is important enough for me to know I'll hear about it, otherwise those publicity seeking news stations can do without me 🤣

Welcome to Flosstube. I love your sampler charts. I too learned needlework since first grade with the Belgian ICM nuns who ran our Catholic girls school. Eager for your next video.

I will be watching for when you release Eliza Jane Smyth, that is exactly the sampler I look for. I love your video and your work.

So glad to see you doing a Flosstube! I love your reproduction samplers especially the smalls! They are perfect to stitch on 46 or 56 count. I like the look of small samplers mixed with larger samplers when hanging on a wall! The varying sizes are so pleasing to view. I am excited about Eliza´s sampler! I will definitely purchase it to stitch! Muted colors or soft pinks which are my particular favorite color are right on my check list when considering a sampler along with the design. When I found out that you did a sampler for Molly, I rushed right over to purchase it. These ladies are so fun to watch. Your bags are also amazing beautiful! I have purchased several of them and will continue to add to my stash. You did wonderful on your first video! Relax and make it your own! Enjoyed your stitching with is so beautiful and enjoyed seeing the fabrics. I have added to my list of to purchase several that you showed. I lean toward lighter colors for samplers which are my first love to stitch. Keep up the great work with The Wishing Thorn and look forward to new samplers as they come out. Desi Tea Time Stitcher

This was so kind of you to write! I am so glad to meet you 😍 You are amazing to stitch on such tiny count. I could but it wouldn't be as fun for me :) I thought I was fantastic at 40ct back in the day 🤣 I do agree with you a mix of large and small looks so pleasing.

Loved your first flosstube. I also love the cedar creek linen. The large rectangular sampler on the wall behind you is lovely. Will you show it in a future flosstube and will you be charting it?

@thewishingthorn Год назад

Thank you so much! We will talk about that sampler next time 😍

Loved your show-and-tell! That bellpull is so pretty!

@thewishingthorn Год назад

Thank you so much! I love that bellpull too and it is totally original, nobody else has one. Everyone that participated in that round robin had a sampler stitched but everyone did different sections. It was such a cool idea. It might be reproducible in a really close-knit environment.... 🥰
