I was a cross-stitcher before cross-stitching was cool. LOL! There are so many wonderful flosstubers here, so why watch my channel? I stitch a wide variety of pattern styles and can't wait to share them with you! As a busy single mom, 20 minutes is sometimes all I get in a day for my "me-time" stitching. And that's enough time to create beautiful projects! And enough time for us to have some fun together here on my channel. I hope you will like what you see, subscribe, and ring that bell!

🖤🧵🪡🖤
Hi Heather. Happy to see all your progress and your 3000 stitches for the month. Have fun and be safe on your college tours. I would never feel bad about saying anything regarding people's religions. I'm not a huge fan of Stitching with the Housewives either. I just feel like they're designs are pretty much repetitive. And I totally agree with you 100%, they should have chosen something non religious holiday to use for this retreat design. xx Michelle
Hi, Michelle! Sorry it's taken me so long to respond! Our college tours were great - thank you for the safe travel wishes. And thank you also for your kind words about my little callout - I felt a bit badly after for a hot minute, as I am not one to stir pots normally. But then I decided that I believed what I was saying so shouldn't feel badly about saying it. I love how inclusive the modern cross-stitch community is on the whole, and I want it to stay that way. :) (Also, not like my teeny-weeny little channel is going to make waves in anything. hahaha!) I hope you're having an amazing July!
Have fun in the college exploration trip! Glad you were able to resolve the most time sensitive things at work before your trip...imagine what it might have been like if you were traveling when the issue with that worker's production was discovered! Lovely stitching. I have Lila's Studio Nevermore on my wall and always look at it when you show yours. Once I got started on that one, I powered through to a finish to get it on my wall! I love your smalls that you are getting done this year. Safe and fun travels!
Thanks so much! I absolutely agree with you about the work stuff. I'm so grateful that I shouldn't have to worry about any of it on my trip. I really want to have my Nevermore finished, too. It's such a fabulous piece, but those borders are SO intricate! Which, of course, is part of why it's so fabulous! I'm sure I'll have lots to report from the college visits in my next video. I'm taking Going Batty and Chaotic Vibes with me and hope to get some stitches in on them during the evenings. Fingers crossed! Have a great week!
I'm so sorry about your bats, that's always so rough. Your Nevermore is looking fantastic however, it's so tiny and looks so great! I don't watch a ton of live streams but I have a heavy preference towards twitch, I just like the format better. (Though maybe I just need to try out UA-cam more 😅)
Thanks for your opinion on the streaming! I really appreciate it. You're not alone in preferring Twitch, it seems. I might need to do some research! I did pick out the stitching on the bats at Stitch Con and added some of them back in (after checking my counting and placement about 6 times!). I hope to finish it before I film my next video. Have a great day!
Congrats to your daughter!
Thank you! She's worked very hard, so it's great to see that work yield the result she hoped for.
I don't mind watching streams on either platform. I've tried streaming on both and dont think I'm any good at any when i compare myself to established streamers. I like to edit my flosstubes to cut out all the rambling i do 😅 but I'd like to try more live too, practice makes perfect
The rambling is what I love! :) And the ability to interact live. Thanks for commenting and letting me know your thoughts. Have a great day!
all of the people i watched live stream on UA-cam have moved to livestreaming on twitch. Twitch is a lot more interactive, which can be overwhelming if not used to twitch. I will watch either way, is streamers preference.
Thanks for the insight! I've streamed on YT once, maybe twice. I've watched in Twitch, not sure what's involved in getting set up there. Thanks for watching and commenting! Have a great day!
UA-cam ❤️ I'm so so sorry about your bat project 😭😭😭
Thanks. I don't have really big oopsies like that often, and it's sooooo frustrating. I so do NOT want to frog all those stitches.....
it was so lovely to meet you!
Same! So much fun!
Congrats to your daughter’s softball team! That’s huge!
Thank you! And she got Drum Major! It was a core memory weekend for sure.
Stitch North is amazing! I was at weekend 2 for the 2nd time and it is a must go each year for me. Love seeing all your projects.
I totally agree! I had such a blast and am registered for Weekend 2 next year! Perhaps I’ll see you there! Thanks for watching and commenting! 🥰
@@The20MinuteStitcher me too!! I should have walked around more!
We bought the same Brin and nedle color! The pink one! And I ended up using it for my stitch4pride April drop 😍
I love it!
🐴🐴🐴
Ya gotta brag on your kiddo!
Gosh I just hate having to re-record videos, it's such a time suck I know. Way to persevere through 💜 That little frog came out adorable 🐸 Don't make me think about my languishing Magic Kingdom SAL 😅 I also adore the finished product but I'm further behind than you. And my one WIPGO space was called in January. Looking forward to your April update soon 😊
Thanks for watching and for the comment! I am obsessed with that frog. He’s so fabulous and he knows it! 🤣 I need to find a way to get that Magic Kingdom SAL done. Sigh. I’ll have lots to show in my next video! Happy stitching!
Can’t wait to see your progress on Moonshine Cabin. I need to start that one this year at some point. And so glad you’re participating in the book club!
It's pronounced -- Awn-Ya -- It's an Irish word.
Thank you so much! I knew someone would know and tell me eventually. 😁 I don’t trust an internet search to get it right. 😏
I love Quirky Quaker Frog1! I'm stitching it with a Wonderland Floss -- I want to say it's Mock turtle floss. I remember when we dyed that fabric! It was so fun
I think I have my Mock Turtle floss in the kit for my QQ Turtle. Seems appropriate. 🤣 That was a fun night!
Autumn Garden will be lovely, I can’t wait to see your start.
What was the name of the series you watched with your children, and what platform was it on? Also what platform is A sign of Affection, and The Apothecary Diaries?😊
Hi! The kids and I have been watching Naruto. The first series is on Netflix and we watched Naruto Shippuden on Hulu. I've been watching A Sign of Affection and The Apothecary Diaries on Crunchyroll, but I know that Netflix also has The Apothecary Diaries.
Great visit! Love all your progress. The quirky Quaker frog is adorable.
Thanks for hanging out with me! I am obsessed with that little froggy. Have a great day!
Great progress on your stitching! Happy Easter and happy stitching!
Thank you! You too!
Thanks for pushing on and providing us with a fun video visit. Really enjoying seeing all that you are stitching and your April plans. I fill out the Monthly Magazine Challenge sheet every month but am not disciplined about it...typically only one of my projects is from a magazine, and I readily abandon the plans if I'm really loving a particular project. I'm also doing the No Time Like the Present SAL and am a little behind but hoping to catch up in April (fell behind in February when I stitched the Evertote/MFE/Roxy Floss Co SALentine project and some of the smalls. Happy stitching!
Thanks for watching! This is the first time in two years I've had to re-film an episode, so I guess I should be grateful I made it this long. I'm definitely going to have to watch (or change) those hotkeys moving forward, though. I am SO far behind in both my year-long SALs and I'm so torn between working on them more and the dopamine hit of sticking to my boards and finishing as least two patterns every month. Happy stitching to you, too!
Okay, this is your mother speaking-that’s not a good thing to lace over glass! I can give you some foam-core!,❤️😬❤️ Love you, mean it! ❤️😁❤️
Thank you so much. I'm behind on viewing also.
I love me some bunting!!!
Great stitching update!
Definitely make ornaments for the halloween tree!! I loved the long video. Thank you for spending the time.
You had a great stitching month - really enjoyed seeing it all! I like the longer video month recap. I’d be sad if you took out any of the parts.
Thank you!! And thanks for the comment about the length. I’m still figuring this new format out and what length works well. I appreciate the feedback!
Ornaments gets my vote as well, though bunting sounds fun & different. Love all our "wipgo" boards.
Thank you! Ornaments is definitely the clear winner so far. Thanks for watching and commenting!
I would make them ornaments for a Halloween tree. Great progress and beautiful WIPs.
OMG I totally forgot about clue...i have that and didn't even start it yet...ugh. Another thing to start soon.
I need to learn how to do the picture in picture of my computer... what programs do you use or do you have multiple cameras? I struggle too much filming on my phone so I need to change things up a bit I love all your projects this time...
Thanks for the compliment on my projects! For filming, I’ve started using OBS. It’s free and there are some good tutorials on UA-cam that helped me set it up. It’s definitely making filming and editing simpler. I just use my laptop’s webcam. Just one camera.
Oh my goodness thank you for the shout out! That was really kind of you! I am adoring those inappropriate cats, the candy corn one is ridiculous 😂. I vote for stitching them together to frame. But if you’re not feeling doing something framed I would consider making small pillows/ornaments. All your stitching is looking incredible, can’t believe how much you’re getting done! Also I will be at the first weekend of stitch north too!!! Can’t wait to meet you there!
OMG!! YOU’RE GOING TO BE AT WEEKEND A?!??? That’s amazing! I can’t wait to meet you!! You just made my day! And thanks for the compliments on my projects. The inappropriate cats are awesome. So funny. Ornaments are getting the most votes. I also like the idea of pillows. I think I’ll definitely stitch them separately and then decide whether to do ornaments or pillows or bunting. A coworker suggested a bell pull. So many options!
I vote for ornaments for a Halloween tree unless you have naughty kitties like I do.😹 Tfs
I would make them into ornaments, I love Halloween trees.
Thanks for your vote! Ornaments is definitely the clear winner. I appreciate you watching and commenting. Have a great day!
❤ seeing all your ststitching 😊 Keep in stitches 🪡🧵
I love that you opted to leave the blue off the Can do attitude. That rainbow shines on it's own. Zelda games are expensive but man you get your moneys worth! My husband has been playing Tears of the Kingdom since he got it for Father's Day!
I agree! That rainbow floss turned out even better than I had hoped it would. I have been loving Tears of the Kingdom!! I really enjoyed Breath of the Wild, but Tears of the Kingdom is even richer and more entertaining! I'm having lots of fun with it. Have a great day!!!
Hope your new recording schedule works out for you and brings you more crafting/hobby joy!
Thank you so much. So far, it really has. I'm finding time to scrapbook and read a bit more. And playing lots of Zelda!
Great plans!
Gah, the mouse QQ! Need. I love the QQs.
I am still playing catch up but I can't wait to watch your MFE piece come to life with those colors.
Belated viewing and catch up time! I've been stitching for so long, and my mom isn't sentimental, so I have no clue what my first cross stitch was or where it endeddup, lol How lucky for you that you still have that piece and that it was designed by you!
Hi! Welcome! Thanks for watching and commenting. I definitely count myself lucky that my mom kept that piece.
Yeah, you would think Zelda would learn.😳love your projects. I’m reading A Discovery of Witches and stitching Feast of Friendship. Glad your monthly rotation is working well for you. 🪡🧵☮️❄️
Enjoyed
I enjoyed the new segment. I hope you continue to share. I just started reading Check & Mate by Ali Hazelwood. I really like her writing but I can't play chess to save my life so we'll see how it goes. I've been watching murder/whodunit shows lately such as Murder At The End of the World and Death and Other Details, both on Hulu.
Thanks! I appreciate that and I think I will continue to share. I've picked up Ali's books before and have started them but then got distracted. I was enjoying them, though, so should go back to them. If you like murder/whodunit shows, you might like If We Were Villains. I'm about 120 pages in now and really enjoying it. Thanks for watching and chatting with me. Have a great day!
💛🖤💛
Just finished reading Iron Flame, and now waiting to hear when book 3 of the series will be released! Stitching on the MFE 2024 SAL, the Fox and Rabbit 2024 SAL, Temperature Dragon (stitching the 1st year of my son's life...he's a dragon also so I can stitch that as fast as I want to...possibly for a birthday gift???), Stitch 4 Pride SAL, and a few other WIPs I am trying to get progress on this year...and whatever other things distract me! Happy stitching, watching, reading and playing!
We have much in common. I too love Dr Who. I am also stitching the Dragons A Field Guide. I am a Dragon (wood). I love gaming and find it challengin to split my time between crafting and gaming (especially since I like to pick big cross stitch projects-smh). I am currently reading Iron Flame (love dragons). Did you read it?
Yay!! I love finding people with similar interests! Yay for Who. What do you think so far of our new Doctor? LOVE the Empyrean series. I listened to Fourth Wing and switched off between listening to and reading Iron Flame. Really enjoyed both and looking forward to Book 3. What's your current gaming go-to? Thanks for watching and commenting. Have a great day!
