So glad you are enjoying your retirement! It's really fun watching your stitching progress quicker now. Kingdom of books is absolutely beautiful and I can't wait to see it complete at the end of the year. I went to check out the halloween stitch along and their website was down so I'll check again tomorrow. I love good halloween stitching any time of year! It was funny that you mentioned.You're stitching wall behind you as I was going to leave a comment and ask if you could go over what is hanging there as I really enjoyed the last one you did and got some great pattern inspiration.

Your WIPs are amazing! Every time I watch, I see something else I want to add to my collection. I've been wanting to get the Fabulous Houses collection for awhile. Maybe I'll start collecting them. I can't wait until the Olympics. I will also be starting Les Olympiades des Gnomes. I like the idea of stitching the medals won. My time is limited though so maybe I'll combine it with my Olympic SAL and do stitches per medal instead of minutes. Can't wait to hear what your Olympic plans are.

Thank you for your video. Your Kingdom of books is looking so good! I can see the end! I really like that Letistitch piece. I had a comedy of errors getting my Jardin Prive piece. I didn't know if the place I bought it from ships by Post Office, or UPS. I didn't want UPS to leave it at my front door if that was the shipper, so I had it sent to my work. Found out later it was shipped by the Post office, but they tried when we were closed. It went back to a different facility and just sat there. The tracking kept saying for a week that it was at the facility, but it wasn't moving. A week later I got a notice that they were returning it because the address didn't exist. Shipper made a mistake on the address, they reversed the numbers. About 2 hours later our awesome mailman walked in with it. He knew I was expecting a package and grabbed it. Somehow it went to the right facility finally, but their tracking said it was returned to the shipper. Anyway, I am alll kitted up and ready to go! Take care and happy stitching!

Hello fellow retiree…I am actually on vacation…first time in decades that I am not teaching summer school. What do you do with the Aida cloth you don’t use? I am fortunate that my daughter stitches 14 count and does not mind it being stiff. I will be joining you for Olympic fun Brenda. Thank you for being you.🦉🧵🏖️

Thank You!!!! And I am soooooooo happy you are enjoying a summer without summer school!!!!!!!!!! Woooohooo! I keep the aida fabric I don't use from kits to use for other projects. Or sometimes I share it with my daughters and daughter-in-law. And my granddaughter is learning to stitch :) Yay for the Olympics!!!! So glad you will be joining me in the fun :)

So good to see you back, as always!!! I have all four of the Seasons by the Sea with all the thread packs as well!! Do you want to do assignment stitching with me? Or a SAL? My only problem is that they are all in my Florida house and I won’t be there until November 1st! Let me know your thoughts. Thank you for another great flosstube!

Just wanted to let you know that you are a bad influence 🤣 Because of some of the great videos you’ve shared I decided that I needed to make the leap and try scroll frames - I went with Artisan as you recommended and because I absolutely love the Elan stand I’ve had for 3-4 years. Now I am debating the floor stand based on your review and also because they are semi-retiring and won’t be offering floor stands after this month. I’ve never really even wanted a floor stand but “what if?!?” Lol! Also considering ordering some spare parts and probably more frames (once I see if I even like the deluxe set and extra side bars I just bought…) because once they fully retire I worry I will need something. Thanks for the help! Sweet Summertime looks great, I’m going to be popping mine in a frame this week, along with some cute finishing pieces from Paisley & Polka Dots, and finally start on Watermelon Crawl - the backstitches on SS really do make the piece! Happy Stitching 😊

Hi Barbara! I do make plans, but usually only loosely follow them. I try really hard to keep up with my monthly goals, but my weekly goals and plans quite often get changed, lol! I keep trying different things to see what I like and what works best for me :)

When you do a half cross on a piece that is mostly full crosses, which direction do you make that single stitch? Is it done like a normal lower stitch or do you copy the direction of the top thread in a full cross?
@Handworkmaniac
@Handworkmaniac 28 дней назад
Hello! I have done it both ways and like it fine either way. Most people say you should do it the same as the top thread in the full crosses, so they all match :)

In flosstube #129 you showed your Four Seasons project, which had 3 bobbins with a bunch of threads attached. Or that’s what it looked like to me. What is the purpose of stitching like that and what is it called? Thanks.
@Handworkmaniac
@Handworkmaniac 28 дней назад
Hello! That is called the "parking method". You choose a color and stitch all the stitches that are that color in a certain area and then you "park" the thread in the next place it will be used. When you are done filling in the first area, you move to the next area and pick up each "parked thread" and continue stitching with them one at a time. I only use that method when I am stitching a complicated full coverage piece with 87 different colors, such as Heaven and Earth Designs pieces. If you search RU-vid for "cross stitch parking method" you will find many different videos that explain it.

Your work is so beautiful. I was wondering how do you see the holes on the fabric that is 46 count? I having trouble with 36 count. I have only gotten to do a project on 28 count and thats a wip because I cant work on it but so long. Just wondering how you do it?

Thank You! I have contacts that correct my vision to 20/20. I am 59 so I have one contact that sees near and one contact that sees far. So I don't need reading glasses to read. But I do use reading glasses when I am stitching for magnification. I use 3.5 reading glasses when stitching to magnify the stitches. If I take my contacts out and am wearing glasses instead, then I have to wear the reading glasses on top of my regular glasses to see the stitching. I hope that made sense :)

How many hours or days does it take to stitch half a book?
@Handworkmaniac
@Handworkmaniac 28 дней назад
Wow, that is a good question. I would guess it takes me about 8-12 hours total to stitch half a book.
