Your houses from Cottage Garden Samplings are wonderful. I don't know how you keep,up with all your monthly goals. I can't even stay committed to a 30 minutes a day goal. I don't like switching projects much in one single day.😊 Congratulations on your retirement!!!❤ I hope you have a blast on your Alaska tour, also. May the Lord bless your retirement years with good health, happy family time, and many hours of stitching. 😊

Love your stitching & love your videos. I especially like that you show the pattern for a length of time I can really see it. So many show the pattern piece picture for barely a few seconds & then show their stitching which is sometimes only a few square inches, always hoping they will show the pattern again. So, thank you. BTW, my last day of work was Aug 1, 2012. Have been stitching sometimes 6, 8, 10 & even more than 12 hours a day. Some days I don't stitch at all. It is wonderful to really want to stitch & have the time to do it. Many thanks for showing me your stitching. 👀👀

Oh my, what a blessed weekend. Both my favourite flosstubers have posted - that would be you and LaLaD (who has just moved to Utah) - I am truly spoilt. 😊 You have done a prodigious amount of gorgeous stitching. I'm also somewhat distracted by your previous finishes behind you, especially the Angel of Love and the mandala. 😊 PS I'm totally obsessed with Primrose Cottage's bees so now I will have to hurry up and wait for those new patterns.

Always enjoy seeing your projects. When you are doing a project with 1 thread full cross, but have the blended threads that you are doing 2 threads half cross, do you do your half cross in the direction of your 1st or 2nd leg of a full cross? Hope that makes sense.
@Handworkmaniac
@Handworkmaniac Месяц назад
Thank You!! Well, I know that you are supposed to do them in the direction that matches the top leg of all the other full crosses around them. Then they all match. And I do that on some projects. But then on other projects I just do them the same way that I usually do my first leg of my full crosses, because that is what I do when I am not thinking about it, lol. My brain just goes on automatic, lol!!

Hello from a new subscriber in Canada. WOW, that bookshelf is looking great! Love the Halloween piece also....oh, and I can go on and on about them all! Your taste is very similar to mine. I bought a few Vivsters patterns, but havent' started one yet. Same goes for Carolyn Manning. I really love the one you started

Welcome back! I thought I had missed a floss tube but I didn’t! Thank goodness! I love all your WIPs! Question - are you using silk threads on Kingdom of Book? They are so shiny and beautiful! The retreat sound wonderful! So glad you were able to go!
@Handworkmaniac
@Handworkmaniac Месяц назад
Thank You Dee!! No, Kingdom of Books is just cotton kit thread. It is the detailed shading that makes it look shiny :) Fabulous charting by the company :)

How many hours a day do you stitch? Do you work or have a family at home? When/how do you find the time to do all this work? What method do you stitch in?

Hi Cynthia! I do work full time as an admin secretary at a public Jr High. But my children are all grown and gone and my husband has a day job as well as his own business that he runs on nights and weekends. So once I get home from work I can pretty much choose how to spend my time. I stitch 4-5 hours after work on week days. 8-10 hours on Saturdays after I do my chores in the morning. And 6-8 hours on Sunday in between Church and time with extended family. Stitching truly is my happy place :) I am a one-handed stitched (poke and stab), but I do keep my left hand under the stitching all the time to help guide the needle a little.

Good morning, I am going to stitch the Kingdom of Books and was wondering if you would share the English translation?

Hi Sharon! It is "Angel of Love" by Lavender and Lace. But very similar to a Mirabilia :)

Brenda, I always sooo enjoy your videos. I've already piggybacked on several on your pieces :D I just had to have the Faery Square right away :) I'm really interested in your color conversion on that. Would it be possible for you to share yours? Could I maybe write you an email?

Are you still working on Zimmerman Coverlet. I am working it on 40 count 1 over 2 but feels too light coverage.
