I started out with Holly Hobby so that is at least 50 years ago. I do aida also and I still do aida. After all these years I never got into Linen. Love your WIP's on Linen. Tiny Modernist is my favorite artist right now so I would start that one. I just noticed that this video is from last year so I guess my vote will not count lol. Happy Stitching.

I saw your cute cat and dog floss drops on the Artsy Housewife floss tube, but am having trouble finding your Etsy listing of these. Can you send a link?

So happy to watch this today! Joy! Joy! Joy! I'm working on Old UFO's today as they are summer projects and I'm determined to finish them this year!

I'm laughing so hard at your video, because we may be long lost sisters. I have kitted (and a few small starts) almost everything you showed in your wip parade. I think there were three I didn't have, and two are now in my cart. Also, I can mess my projects up like a champ. I went to the late night room at Stitchcon, took two projects. I realized i had a mistake on the first one. Put it in time out and got out the other one, found I'd stitched all the letters in the wrong spot. Doh!!!! I just found your channel but I'll be watching more now.

This was fun - I'm glad Pam and Steph mentioned you! I always love pieces with a bit of sparkle and bling, so I latched right onto your idea of stitching the state that I live in in beads on One Nation. Of course, by the time I actually get it started and such, I'll probably have TWO states to do in beads, but that will be twice as fun, right?? 🪡👠

Loved this. Side question: Was your moms name Peggy? I grew up in Norfolk, VA and you are a dead ringer for my moms best friend Peggy. My mom (Jan), Peggy, and their friend Susan had a sewing circle (Where i learned to sew). If you are related to Peggy, what a coincidence and if you're not, you have a dopple-ganger in Norfolk!

what an absolutely amazing video. All your WIPs are beautiful. Thanks for sharing. Happy Stitching.>.❤️🌻👍🏼

Loved your WIPs...challenging but beautiful! So happy for you being recognized by Steph and Pam of Just Keep Stitchin'. Hugs

Your fabric for Gathering Honey looks like a lugana to me. If I have the choice I pick lugana over linen every time!

Coming over from Pam and Stephanie, Just Keep Stitching....starting at the very beginning with you! ❤

YES i do want to stitch the chrysanthemum piece ... the colours are glorious! And yes they do need an ort ornament! The ever flowering garden is a forever restarting project! LOL That was a lot of nasty things you said about yourself... don't beat yourself up... it happens to all of us! I would just finish up that section you are stitching and make those lovely flowers into a small finish, and start over on a bigger fabric. The pattern is beautiful and the threads are spectacular, so you just need some stitchy therapy at Keepsakes...they'll fix everything! 🤗 That Lavender and Lace Noel is spectacular... good for you for sticking with it!! Have a wonderful trip... can't wait to hear about it!

Hi from South Carolina. I just got home from Myrtle Beach last week and visited Barefoot Needlearts. Yep, I was feeling cute alright. The whole paycheck! Barefoot is a dangerous place if you're a dedicated cross stitcher. 😂😂 When you get to Keepsakes, have them kit it up for you, fabric and floss. No muss, no fuss. I know how it is when a project just doesn't seem to work. I gave one of mine to my daughter and told her to fix and finish it. I honestly think that the pattern had a vendetta against me.😂😂 Love your videos. You keep me laughing and I always look forward to seeing the next one. Looking forward to meeting you at the Barefoot retreat in October.

That Berkshire Hive is an evenweave. Very nice to stitch on!

Hello my fellow potty mouth. I love all your projects especially the beads on that Bygone Stitchers patriotic piece.

Hi Heidi! Love, love, love your projects! ❤ The wheels on my cart may start to squeak from the weight if I let you completely enable me! 😂 I have had numerous projects kick my butt… and sadly some of the worst were smalls (is counting REALLY that tough for cripes sake - I used to run a lab department….🙄🥴)….just keep digging! Looking forward to seeing more of your haul after the 31st! Thanks for another fabulous video! Lori

That fabric might be Davos. (The bee project). Love your videos, you always make me smile.

Hello from Tennessee! I laughed (roflmao) with you today and teared up like you did with the cardinal stitch pattern. You're just awesome and I'm so grateful I got to stitch with you today. Thank you so very much for your videos. 😊😊😊

So many beautiful WIPS!

Im glad im not the only one that can't count! It must be a medical field issue 😂. I can figure meds and drips but can't count by 2.😂

Wow Heidi, you are a bigger stitch nerd than me!! Statistics?? Really?😂😂😂❤

“Feeling cute, might spend a paycheck” 😂😂😂 you are hysterical and your wip parade is amazing!!!

Love your WIP parade and yes you enabled me. FYI Barefoot Needlearts carries the full line of Cottage Garden threads. If you are coming down for Oct retreat, if you can wait that long😂. If not at Keepsakes call Barefoot and Memory or Amy will be more than happy to help you pick the colors you need off the wall of goodness. Love Cross Stitch Station💕 40+ years😳 ago Terry is the wonderful person who started me on this obsession. Now live in North Myrtle Beach so the ladies at Barefoot now feed my addiction. Hopefully I will meet you at the shop, as I have been helping there during the retreats🤞. Have a great girls trip👍🪡

Just found you on floss tube. I have to suggest another wonderful shop for you while visiting ohio. It is in Galion, Ohio which is in North Central Ohio, it is an awesome store and carries everything! Big Bad Wolfes House of Stitching owned by Amie Wolf

You really choose beautiful patterns to stitch! I love what you choose and show us! Thanks for taking the time and effort to make and post these videos! I do enjoy them!

I use a flat iron (like you use for your hair) to get the kinks out of my bobbinated floss. I have a dedicated mini flat iron that is only used for straightening my floss (just because it was less than $7 and it’s nice to always have it on hand). Oh my gosh ! How in the world did your Aunt’s eggs survive? What a treasure !!! Start the Mum !!!

I just found your Flosstube the last few days. I am so sorry for your loss. My mother passed on June 10, 2023. Perhaps our mothers have met in Heaven.

Heidi, you crack me up. I love your videos. Always enabling and informative. I'm a box,bag and tin collector also. To the point my family saves bags & boxes to bring to me. It cracks me up when they ask "is this a good one?" 😂 You are going to have rough days (weeks). Its normal. I totally understand. You are in my prayers. Sounds like fun with your sister and your retreats. You will be busy. A good type of busy. Take care. Happy stitching ❤

Hi! I love watching your videos and seeing your WIPs! I live near Keepsakes so I put a reminder on my calendar for the 31st so hopefully I will see you there. I’m not sure about the CGT but they have a huge selection in their thread room.

Your WIPs and projects are gorgeous! Please don't beat yourself up so much.... we have all been there. My worst oops was when I was stitching a very intricate design over 1 on 28 count. I loved the pattern and had filled up the area in my Q snap. When I went to move my piece I realized I was stitching in the wrong direction and would run off the edge of my fabric. So it is sitting waiting for me to make something out of what I have, and I will hopefully try again another day!

I love your videos! We have the same stitchy taste and you make me laugh. I’m on the waitlist for the Barefoot Needlearts retreat. I’m in Myrtle Beach camping for a month every fall so I thought why not? Maybe I’ll get lucky and see you there.

I don't normally enjoy WIP parades...but yours was quite entertaining and yes, I love me a good box! LOL

Tough luck on your Everflowering Garden!!! I am using the OFE floss and the border is a very brown green, almost too brown in some areas, so don’t despair! Your colors are much more vibrant, especially the orange. I bought an entire yard of fabric to be sure it fit. It’s very pretty, so keep trying. It will be worth it!!

I always look at your stitching ,it’s 2 to 11 degrees so I would like some of your heat Melbourne ,Australia

Heidi, my 2 cents ... I love your tags! But I don't use a thread bed because, if I don't put a useable thread back on the floss drop, I will forget what the color is.

I've never used a thread bed, but it sounds like it would simplify my life - Yes, please! Your Inspiration looks amazing - You're doing a great job! I've decided to pick my progress out and just do the middle motif... 😂 I've recently started my first Mirabilia, I'm starting to share your "odd" love for beading! I was terrified (my first go with beads), but it's not bad!!! Love your projects as usual, enjoyed the update! PS Lost my mom last year, I'm also stitching When Cardinals are Near!

Oh my God!!!!! We are two peas in a pod 😂 When you started talking about the mystery stitch along of Teresa’s, I was done. I feel exactly the same way about it and had the exact problem with the 36 count. Lost interest in it and have given up. Enjoyed your video so much. Happy stitching 😊

So glad I found your floss tube a few months ago. We like a lot of the same cross stitch projects. Also going to Barefoot Retreat in October (from Burlington NC) at Myrtle Beach so I will hopefully find you there. I lost my dear mom so many years ago and still today I find myself thinking about hugging her and saying hi mom. Always in our hearts. 🥰

I have finally convinced my daughter to use a fabric calculator. Most online stores have them it's not worth the frustration and anxiety to me. They are very simple to use and no charges for the use.

Hi! I'm new here and I just wanted to talk a little about Kreinik and Marilyn Leavitt-Imblum's Celtic Noel pattern because it was the first time that I realized that I wasn't up to using Kreinik for all of the metallic work. So I looked around for something that could stand in for Kreinik but not drive me up the wall using it. Petite Treasure Braid was my answer and I've used it for a lot of things over the years. It comes in a batch of colors and is so much easier to use than Kreinik. 123 Stitch has it - just look in their threads listing for Rainbow Petite Treasure Braid. Also Crocette a GoGo patterns are available on 123 stitch as well...I just looked and she has 117 patterns listed... Anyway, I just wanted to say Hi !

I live in Ferrum, VA. I'm 30ish minutes south of Roanoke.

Greetings from the Fraser Valley of British Columbia, Canada. I live east of Vancouver in the country. My grandma taught me cross stitch too. But I didn't really do much until the early 90s. I was a did cross stitch for 20 years. Then I started quilting in 2015, and only stitched sporadically. But I want to get back to old UFOs.

I was able to pull my sister over to the dark side, it was tough but I did it😂 You can too! Now my plan is to get her hooked on your videos! Excited about that!😊 you are a beautiful stitcher, I love that we seem to have a lot in common.

Whew! Gorgeous WIPs. Inspiration by Rosewood Manor gets me every time you show it. It is beautiful, but I would sho nuf be saying some ugly words! 🤣🤣🤣

Heidi, bless your heart on the stitching you are starting over. We have all been there at one time or another. Once I had a piece of fabric that was big enough but I started stitching the wrong way on it. :) I love seeing your big girls. I have Jane Hopkins and All Creatures Great and Small going and they are going to take a while. But is It a race I often ask myself when I am tempted to try to stitch faster( and make mistakes). Enjoy the time with your sis! And yes, film the two of you!! As for Keepsakes, prepare to be overwhelmed. I did not know where to look first!

Oh man, Lacy Cottage jumped into my cart. Yeah, take your pc to work on the 19-20 weekend, here’s hoping it’s a ‘q’ shift ( I know better than to say it.). Always enjoy your videos! 🪡🧵☮️🌻

You poor thing - as much as your nose itched through this video you must have had a houseful of company over the weekend!! The projects are gorgeous!!

❤❤❤

I really enjoyed your flosstube. You have definitely enabled me. One day I will make a trip to one of these retreats. Enjoy your time there.

Here's what I'd do: I'd take your piece and tear out the middle chandelier thingamajig in the top center border. Someday there will be a sampler pattern where you like the insides of it but hate the border. You can put the new insides into the border you have, which seems pretty to me. Don't tear out that pretty flower stitching either. You can put the mirror image of that in without the center piece that looks like a house. God knows there are small motif patterns galore that could go into what would be your new center. Here's an opportunity to be creative. Necessity is the mother of invention! :D

Heidi! You make me laugh so hard! Love your stitching. ❤
