    I’m not into fairies but those seasonal ones are stunning and I want to stitch them all. The sparkle in the spring one is gorgeous. I also imagine the back story when looking at the pictures.

    Wow - such a great collection! I confess I own zero kits but I love the Dimensions fairies, including Spring Fairy. I also love the Dimensions Victorian house on the dark navy. I keep going back to that one on Amazon but I have sart-itis - the fear of adding to my WIP pile. 😂

    Yay! A kit parade! Thanks for showing us all your kits. I am a bit like you, just having some of them brings me joy :). I have some of the japanses theme ones that you showed and they are so beautiful. All the season fairies would be great additions, including spring

I know you have a few repeats and it’s great you want to share them, but have you thought about checking other flosstubes who collect kits and may have dupe that you could possibly trade…. Just a thought. Spring❤️❤️❤️

    Loved seeing all the fun kits. So cool how find the ones with different shapes, like the round and oval ones. Lots of dimension and depth. And of course the fancy ladies are a must. Im going to have to join in on the 2026 year of the horse stitching. Amazon says wild Horse will be here friday....probably pending snow 😂Spring

    Amy, this was so fun to watch. So many beautiful kits. I recently pulled out a very old wip, This Side of Heaven by Bucilla, from 1992. It is about 25% finished and I have picked it back up again. Back in the day tape was how we prevented our fabric from fraying. I am so nervous now to remove it. I am still going to finish the piece because it is so pretty.....a cottage with flower gardens!

    Loved this kit parade, but then again, I'm a sucker for a full-length feature movie 🤣. Saw some kits I have, some I don't, and I'm really trying hard not to go searching. I haven't started collecting the Dimensions Gold seasonal fairies, but after seeing Spring and Summer, I might change my mind. One note about Dana's Roses (which I somehow managed to acquire a while ago): the floss is all DMC, so if you can find just the paper pattern, it would be super easy to just kit it up and go.

    This was so much fun! My wishlist has just grown. I started my first Luca-s (butterfly magic) kit a few months ago and when I saw the detail on the face and in the butterflies I immediately bought “girl with poppies”. I am generally not a kit person but aside from the bobbin set up I am a fan. The gridded Aida is really nice that they have. I actually bought a few yards of it for my stash. So thanks so much for your efforts with this video. I too love the cottage by the lake in the woods.😂 Spring.

    One thing I just thought of. Be careful sewing fabric to the horse piece you want to turn into a pillow. The stickiness from the machine might gum up your needle and machine.

    I want Dana's Roses very badly too! Thanks to Luda, 😅! I check ebay every week, and a kit popped up in mid-December that sold for around $220. Maybe it will get re-issued one day.
    On the subject of masking taping the fabric edges, that's just what we did back in the 80s and 90s, even cross stitch shops told stitchers to do that. I stopped stitching for about 15 years in the early 2000s, and when I pulled all that stuff out in 2017, yeah...it was cringe. Now I ziz-zag all my fabric, I know better now, but in our defense everyone was using tape. I have a Paula Vaughn project from about 1993, Aunt Verdi's Porch, that is 80% finished, and it's got tape on it. I'm going to finish it this year, thankfully I have always been the type of stitcher that over-shoots on the fabric size so that can all be well-hidden!
    Lastly I am now about to purchase the RTO kits of Mr. And Mrs. Santa from the Kingdom of Fairy Tales. Those are gorgeous, and you're correct, that's a Mrs. Claus I want to stitch! I'm usually not enabled too much by kit parades, but that one hit me right in the heart! Thanks so much!

    Thank you for the kit parade-I made a note of a few them. It’s like an early spring present. FYI I speak Russian so if you want anything translated let me know (it was moving too quickly on screen to read) Are all the Marejka kits counted cross stitch? I was looking at one online but didn’t want to risk getting a stamped kit 🦉🐊

    You have a lot that I haven't seen before. That's why I love kit parades. I feel like kits have become less popular in the past couple of years on flosstube and that there are only a handful of us still stitching them. I may be completely wrong but that is just what i have observed. Regarding the candamar kit floss...toss it. It's trash! When i was stitching cinderella, it kept breaking and shredding. The coverage is really bad and the colours aren't as bright as what the cover shows. I would convert to dmc.
