Stitch Along with Stitchin' Mommy - Winter Montage 

I like to use a size 28 needle when stitching over 1 on 25 or 28 count fabric.

Thanks Jemima! I think I do have an advantage in that I just do the poke and stab method. I'm sure you've figured out how to "read" the fabric easily at this point in your stitching career - it's still seems hard to me. I paid attention to the weave when I tried basketweave stitch and it was tricky on such tiny fabric to see which way the weave was going.

@@StitchinMommy I don’t go smaller over 1 than 25 ct😄 That helps🫣

That's true! Fabric can make all the difference in our enjoyment of a project. I have seen some stitchers do those kits on a tan mottled fabric, since it kind of mimics the look of the original artwork. But, even if you keep the same color and just swap from kit Aida to linen, you could have a nicer experience. The fabric you got in my kit is a 28 count Lugana, which is an evenweave. Linens can sometimes be stiffer than evenweaves, depending on the brand, so you could try looking for Lugana when looking for fabric if you're enjoying that kind. :)

Ooh! Looking forward to seeing your new start! :D

Sometimes I decide strictly based on size or my desire to be speedy. But sometimes I factor in the type of picture it is. I feel like some designs are better suited to a full cross if they have a more illustrated look to them. I'm sure it doesn't make a huge difference, since the pixels are so small. :)

Interesting! I hadn't even noticed which fingers I use. I guess just whatever feels comfortable. :)

I do keep that in consideration when I am counting far away from other stitches. I will either tie the thread off before heading off into the great unknown, or I'll make sure I have left enough tail to come back to "land" to tie things off.

If you search for "Double Sided Thread Organizer" on Amazon, there are lots to choose from. I'm not sure exactly which one I got, since it's been so long: www.amazon.com/s?k=double+sided+thread+organizer&crid=PX0LTS5BWJGT&sprefix=%2Caps%2C228&ref=nb_sb_ss_recent_1_0_recent These were originally designed to store sewing thread, so it's helpful to search for them using the term "thread" instead of "floss". I hope that helps!

@@StitchinMommy thank you your the best

I have several Stitch With Me style videos that you can find on this playlist: ru-vid.com/group/PL54kifyea7N2G56--hvipIY--eftvdUg2 Several of them are not full coverage projects. I hope to do more of these types of videos as I'm able, and I'll try do a mix of different kinds of projects.

I stitch pretty much the same way on all my projects. You can even see me stitch on a couple projects on linen on previous Stitch With Me videos: ru-vid.com/group/PL54kifyea7N2G56--hvipIY--eftvdUg2 The one where I demonstrate Wisper thread and the one where I stitch on Villa Mirabilia are both on linen. When I'm stitching a half stitch, I just stitch the first leg of my X and don't come back to cross it - so technically, the finished stitches end up with their "top leg" going the opposite direction as my full crosses. You can see some half stitch projects on this playlist in the videos about QS Iris, Knitting Woman, and the ones demonstrating half stitch column parking and half stitch on 40 count. I hope that helps!

@@StitchinMommy I always have a question for you, sorry to be such a pain. But you are my favorite channel .

I am using a Kindle Fire. That's probably the least expensive option to get. I got it just for Pattern Keeper. I needed to search online to add the Google Play store to the Kindle to be able to get access to Pattern Keeper, but that's the only hiccup needed.

@@StitchinMommy thank you dear; I appreciate your help. I really enjoy your channel; keep on stitches‼️ 🥰

I'm stitching this project on 28 count White Lugana evenweave, stitching 1 over 1 full cross.

@@StitchinMommy thanks!Happy Easter ❤

You can find this as a PDF file on the Paine Free Crafts website. They are based in the UK, but since it's digital, it's still easy to get. :) www.painefreecrafts.com/product/winter-montage/

¡Gracias! Tiendo a coser con una tensión muy ligera, por lo que no tengo problemas con los puntos que se deslizan debajo de la tela. Creo que hay una manera de ayudar al comenzar tu proyecto con el tejido en una dirección determinada, pero no conozco los detalles al respecto.

Muchas gracias ❤

I'm glad you enjoyed it!

Wonderful! I'm glad you're enjoying it!

You can do it!

I'm glad you enjoyed the video! Yes, I find that people seem to enjoy this angle because the back-facing camera does a better job of picking up details than the front-facing one I use during my update videos. I did invest in a clamp with a long, adjustable arm, so that I could get the camera directly over my stitching. I used to jury-rig a small bendable tripod onto my shirt in my early stitch-with-me videos, and this is SO much better! :D

@@StitchinMommy The angle you had was great; I have a tripod with extra arms so hopefully can try for something similar.
