    Congratulations on passing your exam. Good luck on the oral test. You got so much done yeah. You will find that crochet takes more yarn than knitting, even for the exact same pattern. Love listening to you and your stitching is beautiful.

    You are an amazingly talented young woman. I don’t know how you get it all together. Your projects are all beautiful, but, I miss your socks.. I don’t knit but I love socks and when I found your channel you were doing a lot of pretty socks.. beautiful wedding picks. Sam is such a handsome majestic boy.. take care.. ps- congrats on passing your first exam, back in the dark ages before internet or computers, I waited 8 weeks to get notified of passing my nursing boards. Those are LONG weeks.

    Well done on your exam…what a lot of work! I can see that needlework has been a great joy for you during your years of studying. My husband also has a ‘nails in the wall’ phobia so I decided to pick spots throughout the house for needlework pieces and then change the pictures out seasonally or as I feel like it. That has solved the problem for now. :) I also have spots to display bowls of pintucks or standup cross stitch pics. Yes, there is a way!
    I really love crochet and knitting as well and enjoy your projects. Really nice! Have a great time at Stitch North…I look forward to hearing all about it!

Great progress on your wips and you are doing great with your crocheting. Good luck with your oral exam! Happy stitching!

    Congratulations on the first part of your exams!! Love your framed finishes. I know ehat you mean about framers. I always frame my own pieces after a mishap years ago. I had yo take a piece back 3 times because it was so crooked. Then he said he couldn't redo it because he had to cut it. On top of that, he broke some of the beads the third time which of course couldn't be repaired because of it being in the frame. It put me off beads and framing but now I do it myself.
    Happy stitching 🧵

  • @teresaboyer284

    Hi Shiloh! If Spencer is still concerned about holes, here’s a couple of ideas for you. If the hole is small and the wall is white, a teeny bit of white toothpaste will fill it in nicely ! Command hooks work great for bigger pieces and don’t hurt the wall. How are you planning to finish your gigantic piece? Those will be some serious holes in the wall! Oh- and BTW- I think if you removed the hook for the mail on Forest Flower and rotated it 1/4 turn, you wouldn’t even see the wonky bottom part. Removing the framing hardware is super easy- all you need is a hammer!
    Yes- you should be compensated by Evertote since she basically uses you for advertising (hey, that makes you a spokes-model!). She gets folks to do a lot of stuff for free, so just watch those boundaries, Mrs Psychiatrist!
    Your crochet is awesome! So proud of you for learning this all by yourself and making that beautiful shawl! You take care and have a wonderful time at the retreat! Tell Sam and Spencer not to have TOO good of a time batching if! Hugs!❤

    Very nice video. I must say, several of the Long Dog charts are interesting, but really, the descriptions just ... well, they are a bit over the top, some of them. I will try to see them as funny rather than whatever my current problem with them is! Your Blackbird piece is really beautiful. Thanks for the video - I'm glad to see you again so soon after the last one! 👀
