Just want you to know how much joy you have brought me. I finally got to finish watching your stash videos- a quiet house, my stitching and your video on the TV- a perfect Saturday. Thank you!!
I watched and LOVED every minute of the videos. I watched the first video on Saturday. The second on Sunday. Started the third on Thursday but finished it on Friday. What an incredible job you did in presenting the patterns and material. It will be fun to see your WIP parade in December. Thank you so much for the huge amount of time you spent to do the videos.
I enjoyed watching all 3 days of your stash dive. I shattered some bones in my left foot a few days ago and need to be off my feet for 6 to 8 weeks. You have entertained me keeping my mind off of the pain in my foot and being grounded, Thanks. Loved all your collection. Thanks.
I just found your channel yesterday, I had to get a quilt bound and needed something to watch. Needless to say, in the past 2 days I watched all 7 hrs of your stash. WOW. Thanks for the entertainment and enabling 😊
I binged all 3 videos. Loved all the charts you have. Good Lord, I have a page and a half of charts I need to buy. I hope I can live to 100 and have hands that can still stitch! Thanks for all you do for our community!!!
Al three came up in my feed at the same time. I binge watched them over 2 days and stitched. Kept stopping to write down designs i liked. Oh dear i now have to be 999 years old to stich everything i like. And need to win the lottery to pay for it all 😂😂. I loved all 3 videos❤❤❤❤
You defiantly did not waste your time Gary ,I started watching yesterday afternoon into the night while stitching and first thing this morning back on it, so grateful you took the time and also great to spend time with you and keep u company especially as u are home alone at the mo x loving it
I loved these videos! I really like seeing a wide variety of patterns, so this was great. I watched all the videos over a couple of days - the first day was rainy so it was nice to just hang out inside and watch a bit, and the second day my hubby was sick so I just turned the videos on throughout the day when I was hanging out with him.
Enjoyed seeing all your stash videos. Great job organizing etc ahead of time. I watched on 2x speed and they kept me busy while I was stitching most of the day. I love the variety of your pieces.
It took me several days to watch all three of your videos but I stuck through to the end and loved it all! You’ve got a great eye for color in your fabric and great inspiration! Thank you for doing this!
Gary just wanted to thank you very much for all three videos, I loved them all. I tried stitching while watching but made too many mistakes, so I did the ironing instead. It took me over one week to watch them but loved it, I really appreciate the time and effort you put into it. Loved all your projects. So glad Ronnie is having a great holiday. Take care, Guida
Gary, I enjoyed watching all 3 of your stash videos! Wow, the fabrics you pick out for Mirabilla patterns are so awesome and I would never think about stitching like that. I have two to stitch in my stitch and I'm going to stitch them on dyed linen. Thank you for showing us different designers and your fabrics you choose. You have such a talent for it. You have some great patterns to stitch💕
I'm here and I'm stitching. I watch all videos on 1.5 speed. I watched the first two the first night and now I'm watching this one. NOT a waste of time -- LOVE it and I'm excited to see you stitch all of the things. Cups by Stitching with BAM would be cool as one piece.
I started watching Saturday morning and finished all the videos Saturday night 😊 I crocheted during the first half and cross stitched my quilt block the last half enjoyed all😊
It is a cloudy Tuesday morning here in Rhode island. I was on vacation and just got back so i have not watched your video yet. Im going to get my coffee and my stitching. And im going to watch and stitch all day. Let me just say i see a little sadness in your eyes and i can tell you are missing Ronnie. We miss him to! I pray that God will bring him home safe and back by your side where he belongs. Love you guys!! Linda from Rhode Island 😊
I watched them in three days! Absolutely loved all of it! You enabled me in so many patterns. I made a list and will have to make purchases slowly! Thanks so much! I love your calm voice and how well you shared all of it!
I am so enjoying your stash dive!! ❤❤Its always fun to see somebody’s stash and what they like to have to stitch. There is something very relaxing about watching these. 😂🤷♀️🥰on number #3 now!!!!
It took me a little more than 2.5 days to watch. I enjoyed it ALL! I love seeing what designs speak to other stitchers and the reasons why. You hit it out of the park!
This was a fabulous series and I oved seeing all of the patterns.....I loved that there was only one you thought you might not stitch but still left it in 'just in case'....As you asked, I watched one a day.
All I can say is WOW!!! You did a great job and I enjoyed all 3 of the videos. This was one epic cross stitch miniseries. Thank you for sharing and doing all the hard work to get these out for us.
Loved all of the videos! I developed quite a wish list of items and enjoyed seeing your fabric choices. You asked how long-well I’ve been on vacation and started watching on Monday and finished them up this morning! Thanks for a great set of videos!
Hi Gary❤ I watched the video. 😅 I was watching and making a baby quilt❤ it was great. Now I'm off to watch your other video. I'm also very happy for Ronny to be with his family.❤ I have friend that lived in Costa Rica, they invited me to go and visit but I never did. Maybe someday❤ You take care see you soon❤
Wow! I know that was a lot of work for you. It took me over a week, but I watched them all. Enjoyed seeing all of your stash. It’s always nice to see what others collect and stitch.
Thanks for sharing your stash. I did see a few patterns that piqued my interest. Loved how you explained your fabric choices and why the patterns were chosen. I have watched all 3 of the stash videos, mainly while traveling back home from a retreat via an airplane. 💜💜💜
Soooo enjoyed your stash dive!!! It took me two days to watch the videos and it was worth every minute….❤ Every time you asked if anyone was still there I yelled “ yes…and I’m not going anywhere until after the last chart”. I thought I had a lot of charts but I bow to the master collector….😂 Thanks so much! Lori
I just finished all 3 stash videos. I adored it! When I would have quiet stitching time…I would enjoy having these videos to watch. Oh…you are such an enabler. My shopping list has grown! I also have an obsession with clothes on a line! Have you been to Patches and stitches in Huntsville? That was my LNS before we moved to Florida. My kids still live there…(2) so I still get to visit. My other child is in Tuscaloosa going to Bama, and I have not found an LNS close to him yet. I KNOW….you guys should open an Needle work shop! I would visit often. Haha!
when you got to the T's i was like "wait that's The!" I also have the samsarah fruits and veggies in my to stitch pile. as well as the hearts content scissor fob. always fun to see what other people picked up to stitch. these videos took me 3 evenings. watched one each evening while stitching
First please let Ronnie know he was missed. But great work!!!!! I watched day 1 and day 2 on Sat. and 3 on Sunday. i thoroughly enjoyed every minute even when you kept calling the tart tins (tarts), I know you were getting tired but you did a phenomenal job. Wow what alot of charts waiting on you good luck! I love your channel and you are the only place I order my supplies from, great service.
I love the Ghost crossing on that called for fabric! I have to agree that the way the ghosts are outlined, it makes them look more see through like a ghost is really portrayed. I really enjoyed the chart stash videos. I put them on 1.5 speed so I could watch each one in its entirety instead of stopping and coming back to it later when I had to get stuff done.
These have not been waste of time! I have watched all of them. Pretty much each one from start to finish with short pauses. I love stash dives and wip parades
I watched every minute and loved it! It’s Monday evening and I just finished. My wish list is sooooo long!!! THANK YOU for doing this for us! Incredible!!
I binged all your stash videos in 3 days, broke up the 1st one into 2 days. The last one I watched straight (with a few breaks). You are so inspiring, I am now forcing myself (I need to do it) to 2 hand stitch, just like you do. Of course, during the videos I had a piece of paper to write down ones I want to stitch also. Thank you so much for doing the videos and I hope you have recovered!!!
Wow, so many patterns I would not know where to start. Just finished watching your 3 videos you have an amazing stash. I thoroughly enjoyed watching them over the past 2 days. Made a list of the ones that I now need to stitch.
I have stitched almost all of the Notes series. I did them with two threads on 32 CT and loved it. On Merry Notes I'd recommend a French Knot for Santa's eye. A full stitch was a little big. They easily fit in a 5x7 frame. Also, Shepherd's Bush carries many of those 18ct linens because so many of their charts are stitched on them. It's worth calling the shop and having them make up a kit for you or send you the fabric only. You have an incredible stash and I definitely added several things to my wish list, and I still have the first video to watch! I laughed when you said you had to stick to the plan because the old Gary never stuck to plans. 😂 I guess that's the difference of having loose plans compared to super strict plans.
I absolutely made it to the end!!!! Thank you so much. I waited for a me day and spent it watching you from beginning to the end. ❤ I tend to stay away from multi colored fabric and fabrics with words or a distinct pattern - snowflakes - because i never know what to do with them. I can now say with confidence that I have lots of great ideas! Here is a thought for you for your fabric that you have with some of your kits. If you just stitch fabric (like you use for your bags) on all four sides the cross stitch fabric piece with the fabric borders will then fit in your Q Snap
Wow! I watched all three. You have a great collection. Thank you for sharing them all with us! I’m placing an order soon for a few that I need in my collection!👍
Finally made it to the end! I’m not sure how long it took me…had to go hunt up a few lovelies on the journey. Inevitable! Your library is impressive. Thanks so much for the guided tour!
Hi Gary!! I loved watching all 3 videos! I’ve watched them all within a 24 hr period and now have a huge wishlist. I will definitely have to add to my stash. Thank you for sharing your wonderful stash with all of us!!
Stayed and watched all three although day one I seen at 10 pm and ran out of steam and had to finish this morning. So been here all day watching. Yes I enjoyed seeing your stash and seen many I have too. 😂 I don’t feel so bad about my 900+ pattern stash. Trying to teach daughter to stitch too so I have help stitching them up. I also was gifted about five 3” binders full of them in page protectors.
Enjoyed watching the "Garathon". There were some designers that were new to me. Don't be shy about sharing your videos. Adults can be adults. Blessings, Diane
I have watched all of the stash dive. Got so engrossed that I forgot to make a list. Will go back and rewatch. You definitely did not waste your time. You are now crowned the KING of Enablers. Amazing fabrics and wonderful patterns. Thank you for taking the time to do this.
I watched the first 2 last weekend and Day 3 this weekend and I repeated part of the 2nd one today (just so I can order MORE patterns!) 😂 and then watched all of the 3rd. It was super fun to watch! I can’t thank you enough for doing this! I know it was a ton of work but I thoroughly enjoyed it.. and I love that it is in alpha order so I can find things when I go back. :)
I just finished the 3 videos I had such fun watching all your beautiful, cute and interesting patterns and listening to your plans for each one. Thanks for sharing! My wish list got a little longer :) I’m not sure how long it took altogether to watch all I don’t really remember when I started but it was very shortly after they came out.
Enjoyed watching all 3 videos of your stash. I did make a list for patterns I want to stitch someday. Would love to see a parade of all your finishes that are still waiting to be framed. That would be fun to see someday.
It took me about 4 days, but if I wouldn't have had to work I woukd have watched them all in one shot. I enjoyed seeing all your stash and was enabled with many of them😂😂
Not a waste of time I’m enjoying every moment of your stash dive. It’s taken me about two days so far to get through the 3 videos. I’m sure must be missing Ronnie but you’re doing a great job with your stash dive. Jx
I just finished watching all 3 days of your video's where you have been sharing your patterns. We spent all day saying ooh and ahh to everything. I must admit I've never seen this many patterns before 😅. I absolutely love them. I heard about you from Stitching Scotty, and I'm so happy I did. I've subscribed to your channel and am looking forward to going back to some of your older ones, and also to watch you have planned for the future. PS. We love Halloween!
I loved your stash dive Watched them over two days. I have the xApp and found myself following along and saying i need to start this. I have close to 4000 patterns so I had quite few of yours. Now I want to go through all my stash and pull out a few So Thanks Gary 😂
I’m so glad you did this. So many patterns that are so different and beautiful I would have never known till you showed it. Since I moved to Florida I don’t live near a brick and mortar shop. I miss looking at patterns and looking at model prices. Thank you again and I can see you stitching at least 95% of them since you stitch so fast❤ keep up the great videos.
Wow what a treat! I watched all three videos and took me 3 days. Thank You so much. I got a list of about 20 charts to put on my Wishlist from watching your videos. Not to mention all the already stitched charts you have up on the wall. That Sociable Scarecrow from Glendon Place, I can't take my eyes off of it. I might need to get one of those and start it this November.
I really enjoyed your stash dive. I decided to break it into 3 days. The only thing that surprised me was that you don't have more of Sue Hillis's Santas. I've seen them at Keepsakes done as stand-ups which is how I plan to do them. Thanks for taking the time to do this and share. It's made me wonder what is in my 4 drawer file cabinet which is filled - EEK!
Whew! I finally made it! What an amazing collection! There are several that I have too. The Sur Hillis/Post Stitches "If the Shoes Fit", And WOW I love that PTP orange fabric Prank! I also have Teresa Kogut "Flurry". Maybe we can do a quasi stitch along? Or at the rate you stitch versus the rate I stitch, maybe a start along LOL
I finished all 3 days, finishing up on Tuesday. I thoroughly enjoyed this stash parade and I have a LOT of the same charts. Thanks for taking time to share with us. ❤
I really enjoyed watching your stash dive. But, I had to do some fall/Halloween stitching afterwards! Lol. I watched all 3 on Saturday while I worked on stuff for my pop up shop. The only thing that made me sad was when you said someone complained about you not wearing your GaRon shirt. I hope you know the majority of us will keep watching whether or not you are "in uniform". Continue to be yourself, that's what we love. Thanks for the entertainment!
I watched the whole thing!!!! The first video it did take me a while like 8 plus hours the other two as long as the video on the same day! I loved it!! I actually stitched the whole time which I lost my mojo but you brought it back!! Thanks
I watched all three videos in a little over a day. I enjoyed spending extra time seeing your patterns with you. I hope the time passes fast so Ronny is home to you. The heart grows fonder when one is gone.
Just finished day 3. WOW I figured it was about eight hours that I did over the last two days. But I did enjoy seeing all your patterns. And it gave me ideas for me to do.
It has been so much fun watching your stash dive.❤ If you wanted to try to fill in some of your gaps with Sam Sarah check with Ye Olde Cross Stitchery in Bristol, PA. They have the reprint permission (I think that's the correct wording).
Gary. I watched all of your deep stash vids. But I admit it took me about 5 days to watch it all. Lol And I only have 1 large box to your 12. ( Maybe I'd have that many of we didn't have 14 grandkids!) But it was like sitting with a friend going thru their stash. Yes, I enjoyed it all! Maybe because we share a love of Halloween. We have a lot of the same patterns. Fun! 😢
Watched a little Friday and a little Sunday, but the majority of all three videos on Saturday. I only had to pause to purchase one pattern. But I loved seeing all the patterns in your stash.
I did all 3 over a couple days. Made a list of needed patterns as it went. What a collection! wow! Found a neat trick a couple years ago while watching annual WIP parades that goes a little quicker. If you go into settings and set playback speed at 1.25 or even 1.5 it can cut a 3 hour video down to much quicker. Definitely depends on how fast the Floss Tuber talks, but I played these at 1.25 speed and it was still easily understandable.
I watched all 3 in a day!!!! I had never seen a GaRon video but Carolyn Zook inspired me. I had a section of a pattern to finish and then I finished part 3 in bed. It's been an EPIC Lord of the Rings type viewing experience 😁. Also, I now have new favorite categories on Etsy.
