I just found you. OMG. Not only numerous, but beautiful work. I want to go back to your first video and get lost in all your finishes. You have inspired me. I have arthritis in my hands, but to walk away from what I have always loved was a mistake. I may take a long time to complete a piece but that does not matter. I need the peace and joy of the process. Thank you
Wow, what a fantastic array of cross stitch and finishes. Pat yourself on the back for a job well done. Just think how much of a relief you don't have to worry about for 2025. You can just admire all your pretties.
Hi Julie, you are so amazing with all the stitching you do and the finishing. I had a super big finish today. I finished Dog’s Declaration from ink circles. I posted it on my Instagram and I tagged you so you could see it because you’re the one that got me wanting to stitch it when you talked about it on your channel 3 years ago now. I know your wip has been put in your time out pile ….. 😊
FANTASTIC!! Thank you for sharing your amazing finished pieces. Been following you for awhile and have seen many of your pieces come to life! Bravo!! I love thrifting frames and finishing my pieces this way.
Truly amazing! Congrats on getting all of that completed. Really enjoyed watching and seeing all the finishes! You also had some great comments on your finishing, but I think the one I will take most to heart is-it’s not perfect, but it’s done. Words to live by
All the Thirza's behind you make me smile. What a fun ride of a video! You did SO MUCH! 🤩 Your luck with thrift store frames is amazing. I was thinking of stitching the laurel witch advent this year... seeing your finish(es) I so wanna copy you!
Ok seriously, this video was one of the best I’ve ever seen! A huge congrats goes out to you for all you’ve accomplished, both stitching and finishing. And I really enjoyed seeing your sisters stitching too. Awesome finishes!! I loved this video!! ❤
Ok I'm only partway through. This is incredible Julie! I think your large pieces, the MFE sal and And a Forest Grew, they look fantastic in the frames that you found. All your flat folds are so cute too. I might need to pick your brain on some of your finishing techniques. That holiday hanging for your sis is too cute! Ok I'll be back to watch the rest soon!
What an amazing video. Your stitching and finishes are so beautiful. Well done. You've nearly inspired me to dig out my box of doom where finished projects go to die 😅.
I LOVED this video! Seeing the finished item as you went through your box was so fun. And the amount of perfect frames you thrifted was impressive! Well done!
Hi Julie, LOVED the video...your finishing is what got me into watching your channel during COVID..you have such a great eye, even for just hunting thrifted frames..I have a hard time finding anything...hearing about the mildewy work in the box makes me want to cry...especially the Baby its Cold, that finish is why i started looking at the primitive patterns, I have quite a few of those now that I intend to do. Which brings me to Heap on the Wood...I had no idea you had done that one and it just moved up onto my winter todo list!😂❤ My lord the ornaments are AWESOME!...your energy is amazing. I don't comment often, but when I do they will be loooong!
Awww thank you so much!!! I was absolutely DEVASTATED when I opened that storage tote, but amazingly the actual stitched area did not get any mold. The frames were a lost cause!
Holy Crap, Julie, you are on FIRE!!! That's the way to finish things out, though! Quite honestly I loved the frames, I felt you did an excellent job centering the piece in the frame you were "given", and the pieces are DONE!!!! Dang, now I'm motivated to go work on some WIPs, LOL!!!! Happy Thanksgiving!
Ohhhh! I could hardly see what I was sewing, because I kept looking up to see what the next finish was🙂! I don’t think I’ve ever seen anything quite like this video before, congrats!!!! That was sooo impressive! Thank you!
I was so happy to get all of her finishes done as well! I just handed them off to her. Part of the motivation to get this video done was needing to take the finishes to her for thanksgiving
Hokey smokes Julie! You are a marvel. You have completely demolished every excuse I have for not finishing my pieces. You made some great frame finds too! I enjoyed seeing how well you “made it work “ when things were just a little off. Hats off to you 👏🏼
Oh. My. Gosh! Thank you for all of this gorgeous stitching and finishing! Please, please, please show a video of all your holiday pieces at Christmas time❤️
I loved seeing your finishes!! Now I need to get out my little tub with only a few unfinished things....new mantra....If Julie can do it, so can the rest of us!! You should feel great!
This is an incredible video. I’m only half way through, but I had to pause because when you showed Otoño, I realized I had 4 minutes left in the day to do Duolingo before I broke my streak. 🤣 Thanks for saving me!
I am doing Fully Finish Friday next year. Each Friday I will choose one finish from my box-o-finishes and do something with it to get it to FFO status. I did 60 finishes this year for my 60th birthday. Thus also have a big box of finishes.
That's amazing! What a great way to celebrate. I love that you chose 60 for your 60th! I might have to borrow this idea and try to finish something on Fridays to get this box cleared out for good!
This is great! Congratulations! All these finishes are such an accomplishment; you must feel so good (and lighter, lol). I enjoy seeing your choices in your stitching. Could you send me some of your finishing MOJO? I really need it.
@ you could try something sturdier like decibel light or heavy. I watch a lot of videos for bag makers and they say it helps with fabric that is stretchy
Julie what a fantastic idea and video! You are a very put your mind to it and it gets done!! What kind of board do you use to mount your projects on. I find foamcore board is kinda thick and hard to cut! Never tried poster board or Matt board! No kidding….ALL of your pieces look fantastic!! CONGRATULATIONS!! HAPPY STITCHING TODAY AND EVERYDAY IN 2024!
I find foam core way too hard to work with too! I use mat board which I buy as a huge sheet at Michael’s in the framing section. It’s about $7.99 a sheet and of course I use a coupon. It’s thin enough to cut easily but still have stiffness and structure
Wow. You did a lot of finishing. They are all beautiful. When you frame your projects, do you iron on like an SF101. I think that's what it's called. It's an inner lining fabric.
I need you to come to Texas and help me with my tote of finishes lol. I think I’ve fully finished 4 things in the past year, and I’m on finish 18 for the year. 😂 (Card for a friends kid, framed thing for a friends kid, bookmark for a friends kid, ornament for an exchange…yep 4.) Just your eye for frames and putting together a bellpull would help some. (I know they say bellpull are easy…my brain does not compute the instructions.) I’m exhausted thinking about fully finishing that many things in a week.
I definitely became a little obsessive about it, but what really helped was keeping a note on my phone with the dimensions I was looking for and keeping a little tape measure in my purse so I was prepared at all times to find a frame!
@@kansascitygirlinacoloradow4285 well I’ve finished my 2 gifts, so I’ve pulled out finishing supplies for 4 projects. So my bin of finishes hopefully will have a tiny smidge less in it.
I was not able to find the Elizabeth Adelsee pattern. I couldn’t see the bottom of the chart? I am sure that I am not spelling it correctly. Can you provide both designer and correct name of chart
Thank you! I do always use two strands on 32. I know many blackbird and shepherds bush patterns call for one strand on 32 but I’m afraid I won’t like the thinner look

WOW! What a productive month!! Congratulations on all the FFOs! Really enjoyed this video.
I just found you. OMG. Not only numerous, but beautiful work. I want to go back to your first video and get lost in all your finishes. You have inspired me.

I need the peace and joy of the process. Thank you
I'm so glad to hear you are getting back to your stitching! It is truly like therapy for me regardless of finishing anything!
Wow, love all your finishes. You did an amazing job. Happy stitching!
You are AMAZING!!!!!!!!! I loved this video!!! Wow, double wow!
Wow, what a fantastic array of cross stitch and finishes. Pat yourself on the back for a job well done. Just think how much of a relief you don't have to worry about for 2025. You can just admire all your pretties.
I have no idea where I’m gonna put them all but it feels so good so have them done! 🤣
Wow! What a feat! Wonderful work on them all.
WOW!!! I can't even imagine the work that went into all of those finishes! Standing ovation on that one! 👏
You finished sooooo many things! I was watching you while making all the food yesterday!! It must feel so good to have that box tackled!
I’m drained but it feels good to be DONE!
Hi Julie, you are so amazing with all the stitching you do and the finishing.
I had a super big finish today. I finished Dog’s Declaration from ink circles.

I might get back to that one “some day”! Thank you for tagging me so I could see it
Beautiful finishes! Thank you for sharing.
THEEEE most AMAZING Flosstube!!!! What an achievement and what fun for all of us!!!! A DELIGHT!!! Congratulations!
FANTASTIC!! Thank you for sharing your amazing finished pieces. Been following you for awhile and have seen many of your pieces come to life! Bravo!! I love thrifting frames and finishing my pieces this way.
Thank you so much! I am so happy to share! I have been stalking the thrift store on half price day 🤣
That was really fun! And how awesome to have so many ffo ‘s. That eyeball frame is amazing and I’m super jealous!
Yeah that frame is a favorite of mine!
Truly amazing! Congrats on getting all of that completed. Really enjoyed watching and seeing all the finishes! You also had some great comments on your finishing, but I think the one I will take most to heart is-it’s not perfect, but it’s done. Words to live by
🤣 better imperfect and enjoyed than tucked away in a box!
I loved this video! I’m so inspired! Your Laurel Witch advent is awesome!!!
Thank you, Michelle! ❤️
All the Thirza's behind you make me smile.
What a fun ride of a video! You did SO MUCH! 🤩
Your luck with thrift store frames is amazing.
I was thinking of stitching the laurel witch advent this year... seeing your finish(es) I so wanna copy you!
I stalked the thrift store every Saturday (half off day) for months!
Ok seriously, this video was one of the best I’ve ever seen! A huge congrats goes out to you for all you’ve accomplished, both stitching and finishing. And I really enjoyed seeing your sisters stitching too. Awesome finishes!! I loved this video!! ❤
I am so glad you enjoyed it! It was definitely a labor of love! That means a lot, Stacy!
Julie, this was an amazing video and so inspiring. Congratulations on your fabulous finishes. Happiest of holidays to you!!
Thank you so much! I am so glad you enjoyed it!
This is the inspiration video of the year! I desperately need to pull out my box o’ finishes and at least get a few FFOs done. Love all your finishes!
It was TIME!! I will never let it get like this again 😅
Ok I'm only partway through. This is incredible Julie! I think your large pieces, the MFE sal and And a Forest Grew, they look fantastic in the frames that you found. All your flat folds are so cute too. I might need to pick your brain on some of your finishing techniques. That holiday hanging for your sis is too cute! Ok I'll be back to watch the rest soon!
Thank you! I am so glad you are enjoying it 😊
Holy smokes! You are an inspiration and a wonder. Thank you so much for sharing.
I'm so glad you enjoyed it!
Wow! What great finishes! Thank you for sharing this with us and inspiring me to get to my finishing!
It was a fun challenge! I am so glad you enjoyed it!
Fantastic work !!!!!!!!!
Beautiful posting ❤
They just kept coming. You were on fire with these finishes. Best video of 2024, I love it!💥🔥🔥☃
Thank you so much! I had to get it done. It was time! 😅
Such a great video! You’re truly a master. You’ve totally inspired me to get finishing. Thank you! ❤
You got this!
This episode should be in the Guinness book of flosstube ❤❤❤❤❤
🤣🤣🤣
What an amazing video. Your stitching and finishes are so beautiful. Well done. You've nearly inspired me to dig out my box of doom where finished projects go to die 😅.
I know what you mean! The box of doom is a real thing! You can do it!
Wow, Amazing!! And you looking fantastic doing it all !
Thank you! I was very motivated. 😊
Your sisters etsy pattern is meredith from the film brave. It looks amazing. All the finishes do x
What a great video! Beautiful finishes!
That was such a fun video to watch! Thank you for taking us on such a great adventure! Well done!
This was one of the best flosstube I have ever watched!! YOU are extremely talented! Thank you for sharing this.
You are too kind!! Thank you! I truly thought I would FFO maybe 10-15 when I came up with the idea! Then I got obsessed and did so many more
DONE IS FUN! Congratulations! I bet it feels great.
Yes! I needed an intense challenge like this to get me to finally tackle them!
Wow😊 I enjoyed your video. Thank you for sharing your creativity and time.
Wow, those ornaments were fantastic
Thank you! I was so happy with how they turned out 😊
Wow. I always love to see your stitching
Magnificent! I am giving you a standing ovation! Wow... so many gorgeous finishes! Wow those Christmas ornaments are fab!
Thank you! I was really happy with those ornaments 😊
Amazing!!! What a great accomplishment to fully finish all of those spectacular pieces. Huge congratulation!!!
My head is spinning! That was awesome!
I had to push hard the last two days to complete everything and I was EXHAUSTED by the finale
So impressed. That’s all. 😊😊
I LOVED this video! Seeing the finished item as you went through your box was so fun. And the amount of perfect frames you thrifted was impressive! Well done!
Thank you! I was so happy with the frames I found.
Congratulations on all your fully finishes. You did a great job and they all look great.
Thank you! It was a crazy month, but I feel accomplished!
Brilliant finishing!
Hi Julie, LOVED the video...your finishing is what got me into watching your channel during COVID..you have such a great eye, even for just hunting thrifted frames..I have a hard time finding anything...hearing about the mildewy work in the box makes me want to cry...especially the Baby its Cold, that finish is why i started looking at the primitive patterns, I have quite a few of those now that I intend to do.
Which brings me to Heap on the Wood...I had no idea you had done that one and it just moved up onto my winter todo list!😂❤
My lord the ornaments are AWESOME!...your energy is amazing.
I don't comment often, but when I do they will be loooong!
Awww thank you so much!!! I was absolutely DEVASTATED when I opened that storage tote, but amazingly the actual stitched area did not get any mold. The frames were a lost cause!
Holy cats! I’m exhausted. That was an amazing trip and so much inspiration!!! Thank you for sharing.
I am so exhausted! I didn’t even stitch yesterday which is unheard of for me!
Wow, wow and wow!!! Absolutely amazed at your accomplishment. Congratulations!
Dang! I bet it feels amazing to fully finish all of those. Beautiful projects! Thanks for sharing all of them 😊
It really does! I’m so glad you enjoyed them
Holy Crap, Julie, you are on FIRE!!! That's the way to finish things out, though! Quite honestly I loved the frames, I felt you did an excellent job centering the piece in the frame you were "given", and the pieces are DONE!!!! Dang, now I'm motivated to go work on some WIPs, LOL!!!! Happy Thanksgiving!
Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed it. I was stalking the thrift store for those frames every weekend with my measuring tape! 🤣
That was so fun! I’ve followed you forever and I remember you stitching on all those pieces!
🤣 some of them are so old I don’t even remember stitching on them!!
Ohhhh! I could hardly see what I was sewing, because I kept looking up to see what the next finish was🙂! I don’t think I’ve ever seen anything quite like this video before, congrats!!!! That was sooo impressive! Thank you!
Thank you so much! I knew the video was going to get long so I tried to hustle through!
That was amazing!!!
WOW... Amazing body of work😊
Holy cow, what a huge assortment of awesome stitching and finishing. Congratulations and thanks for sharing and inspiring us!
I was so happy to be able to finally finish them and share them with everyone!
Such this was a joy to watch. . . Instant gratification seeing the stitch then it framed. Amazing amount of work, congratulations. Thank you
I am so glad you enjoyed it! It was fun to film.
What an incredible effort Julie!! Congratulations! I hope some of your finishing mojo rubs off on me. 😊😊😊😊😊
I’m so glad you enjoyed it! I feel SO much better with those finishes off my table!
Wow! What an experience to watch that! Wonderful pieces. And I loved your sister’s pieces so much too!
I was so happy to get all of her finishes done as well! I just handed them off to her. Part of the motivation to get this video done was needing to take the finishes to her for thanksgiving
This is the most amazing flosstube I’ve ever seen! Incredible!
Thank you ❤️
Wow! Absolutely amazing! I am so impressed and in awe of everything you accomplished. They all look so good! ❤
Thank you so much!!
Wow Julie, you are a finishing Queen 👑
Blown away ! wow x
That was EPIC! Just amazing and beautiful finishes! Thank you for sharing.
Hokey smokes Julie! You are a marvel. You have completely demolished every excuse I have for not finishing my pieces. You made some great frame finds too! I enjoyed seeing how well you “made it work “ when things were just a little off. Hats off to you 👏🏼
I am SO glad you enjoyed it! It was a challenge I needed to get those finishes done 🤣 hopefull you’re inspired to FFO some stuff!
Oh. My. Gosh! Thank you for all of this gorgeous stitching and finishing! Please, please, please show a video of all your holiday pieces at Christmas time❤️
Oh that’s a great idea! I will for sure get everything out and do a “tour.”
Oh my word!!! 😮 Most epic flosstube ever! Thank you for sharing all that goodness.
You're very welcome! I had a blast making it 😊
I loved seeing your finishes!! Now I need to get out my little tub with only a few unfinished things....new mantra....If Julie can do it, so can the rest of us!! You should feel great!
I was EXHAUSTED by the end 🤣
Holy cow!! That's absolutely amazing!! You finished SO many pieces! I don't know how you did it!
I think I might have lost my mind 😅 I don’t even want to LOOK at a finish for a long while 🤣
@@kansascitygirlinacoloradow4285 I can imagine! That's more than most people finish in several YEARS! They were all so good too!
This is an incredible video. I’m only half way through, but I had to pause because when you showed Otoño, I realized I had 4 minutes left in the day to do Duolingo before I broke my streak. 🤣 Thanks for saving me!
Omg anything to keep that Duo streak going!!! 🤣
Exceptionally fun vid!!!!
Wow!! U did a lot!
Love this video. Gorgeous stitching and finishing! ❤️
WOW you have some really amazing projects and I love your finishing - gave me some ideas for my own! Happy Stitching
I’m so glad you liked them!
You are an inspiration! I am gonna visit my box of finishes and commence to FFOing.
You’ve got this!! 🤩
This was a blast!
Thank you! It was fun to film, but I’m exhausted!
Fantastic!!👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏❤️
You do beautiful work......
Thank you! I am so glad you enjoyed it!
Wow. You’ve worked really hard to finish all your lovely pieces well done!
Thank you! 😊
Very nice and enjoyable, wonderful accomplishments!!
Awesome video and awesome stitching!!😁
That was bloody IMPRESSIVE! 😮
What a fun video. Lovely finishes!

Wow 🤩 so many stunning 🤩 ffo’s congrats 🎊 have a wonderful evening 😊🧵🪡🤗🤩
This is great! Congratulations! All these finishes are such an accomplishment; you must feel so good (and lighter, lol). I enjoy seeing your choices in your stitching. Could you send me some of your finishing MOJO? I really need it.
You can do it!
This was a fun video. Something you can do with your fos to help with stretching is put some woven interfacing (sf101) on the back. Just a thought
I do use interfacing and batting, but some of those fabrics are so uncooperative 😭
@ you could try something sturdier like decibel light or heavy. I watch a lot of videos for bag makers and they say it helps with fabric that is stretchy
Brava friend! Great concept and video! So motivating, Thankyou! 🎉Diana

Wow. You did a lot of finishing. They are all beautiful. When you frame your projects, do you iron on like an SF101. I think that's what it's called. It's an inner lining fabric.
I use iron on interfacing for anything that will be stuffed like a pillow. I use batting behind my framed pieces as it helps smooth out the stitching
@kansascitygirlinacoloradow4285 thank you 😊
I need you to come to Texas and help me with my tote of finishes lol. I think I’ve fully finished 4 things in the past year, and I’m on finish 18 for the year. 😂 (Card for a friends kid, framed thing for a friends kid, bookmark for a friends kid, ornament for an exchange…yep 4.)

OMGosh! What a fun video!!! Now do you want to come teach me how to do all that finishing, because I have a pile that looks a lot like yours did LOL.
I’m on a break!!! 🤣
@ 🤣
This is exciting as I have a similar box of finishes. Are you going to video your process?🤞
I considered it but quickly realized the video would be hours and hours long if I did 🤣
I was not able to find the Elizabeth Adelsee pattern. I couldn’t see the bottom of the chart? I am sure that I am not spelling it correctly. Can you provide both designer and correct name of chart
Hedgerow Stitching Elizabeth Addlesee - should be available as a PDF!
Your work is amazing. How do I get the big girl pattern?
WOW!!!
Amazing finishes! When you use 32 - like the Peace on Earth - do you always use 2 over 2? Your framing is so good.
Thank you! I do always use two strands on 32. I know many blackbird and shepherds bush patterns call for one strand on 32 but I’m afraid I won’t like the thinner look
Epic!
🔥 🔥 #goals
