    Thanks for the video. Light warm gold in the windows is my vote.

    I would put gold or a pale yellow in the windows. I have never outlined & filled in

    Your stockings are beautiful! I don't quilt, but I appreciate all the time and effort that goes into quilting. Yes, the groundhog did lie! I am in SE PA, so the snow came on Tuesday, but it hasn't all melted yet. That's OK - more time to stay indoors and stitch.

    You are getting some great progress in on pieces. Congrats on finding a method for WIPGO, etc, that works for you. I will never understand saying something negative about someone's video. I've quit watching videos plenty of times, and the creator would never know because I just go to another one. There is no reason to say anything negative. It's time everyone learned that lesson.

    I love your finish! So cute! The Christmas in the City piece looks amazing. The idea of adding gold in the windows is brilliant. The fabric choice is perfect for that one. Your stockings are beautiful. My favorite is the one that you said she didn’t have a preference and you just pulled scraps. I am sure you will enjoy all of your extra time when you retire. I know I’m enjoying mine. Have a great rest of the month.

    Your bird and berries piece looks wonderful. I have the pattern, I think I bought it twice, and I should start it. I love the bird which is why I bought it. Your Hawk Run Hollow pieces look good and are coming along nicely. I want to stitch the Shores of Hawk Run Hollow as separate pieces but haven’t worked up the courage to commit. I keep thinking about it though. When you retire you will have so much free time to stitch and quilt as much as you want. I’m a retired teacher and came back to stitching consistently about a year after I retired. I had started stitching in the early 80’s and quit in the mid 90’s as life took a different turn. I have boxes of seasonal smalls that I have stitched since 2016. So your time is almost here. Congrats on keeping up with your three boards. I wish I was that committed. I watched a video last week where the FlossTuber was criticized in a rather nasty way which I didn’t understand. The FlossTuber is the nicest sweetest person. I commented that if she didn’t like the ads to get Premium. I had Premium for music and didn’t realize at first that because I had it I didn’t see ads that people were asking about. Anyway, thank you for reminding people to be kind. And when I see nasty comments on FB I comment back with just keep scrolling. I know you all spend a lot of time putting the videos together so thank you. Rant over. Hope you have a good two weeks.

    We've had situations in our kids schools where they increased the school day by about 5 or 10 minutes per class everyday until the time was made up so school finished on time. I've been off kilter since last Nov. Still trying to find my groove. Your successes are encouraging. Your stockings are beautiful! OMG that red "A Stitch in Time Saves Nine" sampler is on my wish list. Thank you Nancy for a lovely Flosstube!

    Your Christmas stockings are beautiful memories for your family. I thought I would be bored once I retired. Now I have too many things on my schedule and there is never a dull moment. I’m learning to schedule in my stitching time…😂.

  • @DeeAZstitcher
    @DeeAZstitcher 10 місяців тому

    The sampler using GAST schoolhouse red floss or CC Chester's Blue would be a fun time to stitch. My plans keep changing now this month for some reason as I got my WIPGO & HEIFR boards done! Frosty Tiny Town is adorable. I haven't tried Grace Notes fabrics yet. They look wonderful.

  • @margaretblank9351
    @margaretblank9351 10 місяців тому

    You're one of my favourite floss-tubers...I just love your approach to projects. Glad to hear you have a bit of a respite at work with the help of that student teacher...though if her learning curve is steep enough, it's probably a mixed blessing! 😉 And yes, you are so right about giving grace. It takes no time at all to be kind -- and not much effort either. That red sampler is lovely. I've done one HATS red sampler (Ruth Gibb 1882 -- my maternal grandmother's maiden name was Gibb) and would love to find the time to do another (hint, hint!) Blessings to you for the rest of February...from western Canada. ❤

    @stitchingbytheshore 10 місяців тому

    Your Christmas stitch looks so good on the fabric you chose. In regards to the windows, if it were me, I would wait until I had more stitched, and make a decision when I see more of the picture emerge. Those stockings are amazing and I love the progress on your Summer Quaker!

    I loved all your shares. You always have such beautiful projects that you’re working on. You mentioned that the groundhog lied. 😂 I totally agree with you. Northern California is going to get hit by two storms back to back. That’s what the weather forecaster said. Ugh - I want to get out in my garden and get my seedlings into the garden beds. But for now, I’ll be tending to them in my greenhouse, so I’ll choose to just be grateful for that. 😊 Have a wonderful weekend!

    Omg! I had to order the same Sew Sampler box because I had to have the hat pattern!!! I had seen it on Tammy Ernst a while back and had to order immediately! Loved it! I use to get it every month but stopped probably a year ago. I made quilted stockings for all my kids and grandkids. Now I’d like to do the Shepherd’s Bush ones. Wish I had more time and of course money.

    I love stories about reading/spelling funnies! In the ELEVENTH grade, I had to write a sentence on the board. Don’t remember the whole thing, but it had pumpkin in it….except I spelled it PUNKIN!!! My family still gives me heck over it. But not my mom. When she was a young lady, she told her Daddy to slow down from the backseat…because the speed-o-meter said he was speeding!!! He called her Speedo for the longest time.

    @carolpelletier9877 10 місяців тому

    I have to laugh every time I hear you say you’ll do so much when you retire because you’ll have more time. I thought that also but there is never enough time to do all the crafts we want plus the things that we have to do. I’ll be very interested to hear which craft gets more of your focus once you do retire. As I look at the stack of kits for wool appliqué, quilting fabric books and patterns, all the scrapbook things I’ve hoarded waiting for retirement and of course the cross stitch stash I’ve accumulated since 2020. I can only say I do devote time to my crochet because they are lapghans for the hospital and I want to make them and get them to those that need them. Good luck and if you figure it out let me know how you’re accomplishing everything (I’ve been retired for 12 years and still have quite the stash of everything). Love love love your videos.

It was 9 months of a countdown but on the days when I thought I couldn’t get through the day I would look at that calendar and know I only had so many days left. Those spools are gorgeous! Time.
