So nice to see you back with a Flosstube. Beautiful stitching as always.
Super Stitcher Nicky Noodle! That’s you! Thanks for the inspiration! ❤❤❤❤
It amazes me of how many stitchers are in this UA-cam community! Glad I found you and I’ve started following ❤
So many nice stitching Nicky....always enjoy seeing what you are stitching...beautiful works going there...
So many beautiful WIPS!! I think I need to scrub through again and take notes. I LOVE the Scarlet Letter Scottish sampler. I may have to schoom over and get that one. Happy stitching Nicky... It's always nice to see you!🦘🦘🦘
Thanks for sharing all of your beautiful projects. I thoroughly enjoyed seeing them. Happy stitching……………
What a delight seeing all of your beautiful WIP’s. You have a quite interesting variety of patterns and even more interesting variety of floss, both cotton and silks. I would be at a loss trying to decide which one to work on next, but what a pleasant dilemma to have. Thank you so much for sharing all of this!
Hello Nicky....LOVE all of your samplers. I also like that you have lots of starts and not finishes...lol. Makes me not feel so bad...lol. Thanks so much for sharing. Beautiful stitching
Really enjoyed wip parade, Nicky. Glad you had 31 wips. Wish you had 31 more. (I have 33. I feel like telling your wip number is cross stitch confessional.) I am from Michigan, have lived in Illinois for 32 years, and we say neesh, not nitch. Thanks for sharing, xx, Tricia
Ragamuffin 2 is amazing! What lovely work you do. Enjoyed your WIP parade.
I really enjoyed your WIPs. Now several of your samplers have been added to my list to stitch. Especially the Shakespeare’s Peddler Quaker sampler
Thank you for holding your work up for long enough and taking in a way I can look up from stitching to see your beautiful work. Very well done WIP flosstube.
I think - nope - I definitely want to be you when I grow up Nicky. Beautiful WIP parade. Thanks for sharing.
Utterly fabulous daaahhhling!! Really enjoyed seeing your beautiful work, we are twinning on quite a few and love many of the same charts. And your ironing is spectacular I must say, if you ever need a job ironing linen 🤣🤣🤣🤣please call😊
Your stitching is lovely! Thank you for sharing. I loved watching, and have some new pieces in my wishlist after seeing yours. Happy stitching to you!
Your stitching is beautiful. It’s amazing that you can work on many wips. I can only work on one at a time. Enjoyed your video. Thanks!

Your work is beautiful. You don’t make mistakes you’re just making the piece unique to you ❤❤
Thank you so much!
I totally agree. I make mistakes too and that’s just how I look at it now.
Just love watching your videos. Umm, that Scarlet Letter chart you got on the freebie table at the retreat, yes. You snatched out of my hands. Just kidding lovey. But it is a gorgeous chart. ♥️

Thanks very much Yvonne. N x
How am I just finding your channel?!? I love everything about it! Thank you for sharing your beautiful work with all of us. 😍
Beautiful cross stitch, I take magnesium and vit D and i know abt it if i run out, so plse persevere thankyou for sharing
Nicky, that was a feast for the eyes. Your stitching is spectacular and I love your chosen projects. Thank you for sharing and keeping me company as I stitch, dear friend.
I’ve loved spending some stitchy time with you seeing all your WIPs!!! I’ll just say, that, yes, you should try the Turkey Work!!! I ended up doing it and I’ll say it was challenging at first but the end result was totally worth it!! I did stitch this in a hoop and at the time I didn’t have a stand to hold the hoop 😅😅😅 I used 2 different UA-cam tutorials to help me. I stitched on 45 ct and used Soie d’Alger silks. And I think for the Turkey work I used 2 strands to make the plush look. Enjoy!!! 💜💜💜💜
Oooh thanks for the tips Barbara. I am determined to give it a go. I'll be sure to check out UA-cam first for some hot tips. Take care and happy stitching. N xxx
Nice WIPs 😉Nice to see you back again so quickly. 😊
Aww thanks Leigh. Still thinking about you, you poor bugger. Take care of yourself, N xx
@@nickynoodlesstitching7368 aw. Thank you.
What a wonderful array of WIPS you have chosen! I had a few in there saying I got that...why don't you start it!! Why...b\ c I got a sh$t ton of WIPS already!! 😀😉. Love your videos, but I don't always comment...Will have to work on that one this year!! HAPPY STITCHING TODAY AND EVERYDAY IN 2023!!
Please come back and keep recording, you are missed very much! Just re-watched this video and enjoyed seeing your beautiful WIPs again. Hope to see you soon 😊
Happy stitching.
Great video Nicki, thank you. I enjoy our memories of the Hunter Valley retreat. Again, thank you for organising that. I’m disappointed I can’t make it in 2023 due to the date change. I have work commitments until October and it’s impossible to travel that distance at that time. Hopefully I will be there the following year!
Lovely wips.
Love your WIPs, there are some I may put on my list!
What a fabulous WIP parade Nicky!!! You have some amazing projects in the works!! Thanks as always and happy stitching!
Loved seeing all your WIPS Nicky, you are amazing with all you achieve! Thank you for the mention and your Ellen Norris is looking just as beautiful, I am inspired to get mine framed now, can't wait to see yours up on the wall as well. 💖💕
So love your videos and you are a true gift to all that know you! Much hugs from the Ozark Mountains of Arkansas, USA. Linda
Thanks Nicky - love your stitching! And you would love Shepherd's Bush!!! Such a charming shop - and Tina and Teri are the BEST!! Mom and I will hopefully get back over there this spring sometime - we don't have an LNS here anywhere, unfortunately.......... Sheri, at Colorado Cross Stitcher, is probably the closest, and you "can't get there from here" LOL. We are in Western CO. Happy stitching........
Oh wow! I would soooo love to go to both Shepherds Bush and Colorado Cross Stitcher. I really enjoy Sheri's videos. Maybe one day. Take care, Nicky xx
Oh my goodness WOW, all that beautiful work. I loved everyone of your projects. I wish I had kept count of how many WIPS. This is the first time I have watched your floss tube, so, Hi from New Zealand😊
Hi Elizabeth, I believe there were 31 WIPS in my parade. Too many! Thanks for watching my video. By the way, I LOVE New Zealand - it is such a beautiful place. Happy stitching, Nicky x
@@nickynoodlesstitching7368 I thought there may have been more. NZ is a lovely country, but at the moment we are experiencing terrible flooding in Auckland and (very severe in Akld). Lots of rain and flooding in parts of the North Island as well. It has been unbelievable. Looking forward to your next floss tube
I will need to stitch the "N" sampler as well! Thanks so much for the wonderful WIP parade and the lessons in Aussie speak 🙂
G'Day Nancy (haha). I'm very pleased you enjoyed the parade. And yes, you MUST stitch the N chart. So many fun motifs and monograms. Nicky xx
Beautiful stitching ❤. Thanks for taking the time to show your work x
Thanks for watching Jennifer. N xx
Awesome video, Nicky!
Nawwwwww thanks Abi. Mwah. N xx
Thank you for taking the time Nicky to share your WIPs with us. You have a whole pile of beauties there!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thanks Margaret!!!! I'm lovingly working my way through them. Love, Nicky xx
Your work is beautiful! Please share how you press your cross stitch projects. I have a difficult time getting out all of the wrinkles when I press mine. Yours are so perfect! Your WIPs are so nice! You seem to be a very ambitious stitcher! Good luck with your finishes. Thank you for sharing!!!
Thanks Suzanne, I am overly ambitious. Haha. I am lovingly stitching my way through my WIPS. I use Mary Ellen's Best Press to get the wrinkles out of my stitching. I spray the back side from 50cm above the work, then iron with a hot iron. Linen can tolerate the heat. I don't use extra pressure. Just the weight of the iron, the heat and the best press gets the wrinkles out. Good luck, Nicky x
Love watching you and your happy personality. I seem to love the same patterns and it is such a joy to see your stitching!
I enjoyed seeing your projects. Your stitching is so nice.
Loved your WIP parade! Beautiful projects and stitching!!!
Thank you so much!
Just lovely beautiful pieces ! Thank you for sharing!
Always look forward to your videos! Thanks for sharing such beautiful WIPS! ❤
Love your WIP's! Good to know that Among the Roses looks so good in DMC 💕
Absolutely gorgeous range of projects, beautiful stitching. Thank you so much for sharing - looking forward to your 2023 progress 😍👏
What a great collection of WIPS.
Thanks for sharing.
Marilyn
Thanks Marilyn, N xx
Oh what fun to see all your beautiful stitches, very enabling too since there were charts I'd never seen before. Happy Stitching 🪡
Thank you so much!
What a fantastic WIP parade. Your stitching is amazing and I am so going to start the A Peacock A Unicorn, A Badger asap. ❤❤
Hi! So glad to see you back so soon ! Every thing you stitch is just beautiful ,and I love your personality ! Please keep the floss tubes coming. Oh, bye the way ,your just so POSH !!!!!❤💙💚💜🧡
Haha. Thanks for watching all my silliness. I'm pleased you enjoyed it. See you soon, Nicky x
Your Ragamuffin II is really coming along nicely. I love the way you crack yourself up, it makes me laugh too. No worries about feeling that you have to answer our comments, I don't mind if you don't get to do that as you have so many comments to go through. Enjoyed seeing all of your projects you are working on, thanks for sharing.
Thanks Marla. OMGeeee, I crack myself up all the time. I laugh at anything. Thanks so much for watching my shenanigans, Nicky xx
Loved watching all your beautiful wips!
Thank you so much!
OMG, I loved all your projects. Thanks for sharing them with us. Happy Stitching. Miriam
Thank you so much!
I loved every single project.
Thank you very much Cynthia. N xx
Thank you for your video. Loved this WIP parade. So much beautiful eye candy. And you're right, counting is hard. Mr. Frog seems to like it here and thinks he's a permanent resident. I have done more frogging this year than I have done in my entire life!🤯 I'm looking forward to seeing progress on all your lovely projects. I'm a DMC girl too, I do stitch with overdyed on bigger items when I want that variegation, but I think DMC is so lovely, and underrated. Our Joanne's craft store has started carrying Anchor in spools, which I love, and am slowly building up my stash with. I grabbed 5 blacks, because their coverage is so much better than 310! Take care and happy stitching!
Hi Christine, thanks for your lovely comments. I have not yet been able to try the Anchor spools - I'm not aware of anyone stocking them in Australia. I will certainly keep my eyes open for it. Like many, I'm eager to try the black. Happy stitching, Nicky
Nicky I loved all of your works in progress , beautiful work !
Thanks very much Jean. I appreciate you taking the time to watch and comment. It means a lot. N x
Nicky I thought the 'fun bags' were in The Unicorn & Badger chart not a project bag🤣 . Maybe the fabric you are using with Ellen's chart is either Antique Lace or Silica from Nicola. Looks similar to the pieces I have.
Good to see all your wips. Interesting variety of styles. See you next video.
Regarding the cramping and magnesium. There is an Australian product that looks like a roll on deodorant that is a concentrated magnesium compound designed to roll over the area during a cramp. Have used it a lot on my foot & abdomen. Just another option.
Tee hee, thanks Lisa Gosh there are plenty of fun bags and meat and three veg on that chart!!! I think it might be Antique Lace from Nicola. I love that linen sooo much. Thanks for the magnesium tips. Nicky xx
@@nickynoodlesstitching7368 must have a closer look!
absolutely loved your WIP parade, thank you for sharing. I'd love to know what you are stitching your Unicorn, peacock and a badger on. I checked on instagram also and couldn't find it. I'd love to stitch it one day.
Enjoyed your WIP parade! So many lovely projects.
Thank you so much!
You have the most beautiful body of work! Such an incredible WIP parade and I love everything you showed. I can’t wait to see some finishes this year. You have such a great sense with colors and variety of samplers. Thank you for the best WIP parade of 2023 ❣️❣️
Beautiful!!! Stitching!!!
Thank you! 😊
I have a Sulky conversion for My Home in the Garden, but I haven't started it yet!
So happy to have found you. You’re stitch is gorgeous and now I have mire on my list to get 😂❤
Thanks so much.
I would like your color conversion. Thank you 😊
Hi Greta, no problem! I have included the conversion in the description box. Happy stitching! Nicky x
Oh it was. So lovely seeing you! I love ALL your WIPs , I believe you are far ahead of me with Christmas at Hollyberry Farm…. I have been stuck on the one leaf, I frogged it at least 4 times! So it went in time out😂 anyway it was a great video ♥️♥️♥️♥️
Oh thank you Christina! That piece is one I will continue to chip away with. That border is INTENSE. Thanks for pointing out the leaf in the top right corner. I have put a sticky note on my chart , warning me to be careful. Haha. Take care, Nicky x
@@nickynoodlesstitching7368 you take care as well ♥️
My Sunday morning is made!!! YOUR WIP PARADE!!! ❤️❤️
Yay! Thank you! I hope you enjoyed it. N xx
Beautiful work!😊
Thank you. N xx
You have gorgeous WIPs Nicky. I wish you much pleasure from them in the coming year. Did I miss Christmas Gingerbread Village? I was looking out for it to see if you fared better with your progress than my abysmal effort so far 😉🤣
Thanks so much Sarah. Hee hee hee, you're on the ball - I have decided to restart mine. I started stitching it on a green but I'm not convinced it's the right colour for the piece. I'm thinking a blue or grey might be better. I think it will be gorgeous and I am looking forward to restarting it this year. Take care, Nicky xx
I am interested to follow your progress with Jane Feddes from Hands Across the Sea. Its so beautiful. Im thinking of adapting the middle section lettering with surnames in my genealogy. Id keep her name on the lower left and on the lower right have my name w adaption by and the date.
12:46 😊
Are you okay Nicky? I miss your floss tubes very much
Pickle juice is good for cramps.
Really? I've never heard that. I'll be sure to give it a try. N x
Hi Nicky........... we miss you - I hope that everything is ok with you...........
Please share your secret to how you press your pieces. I never seem to be able to get all the wrinkles out.
Hiya, I use Mary Ellen's Best Press. It is FABULOUS! I spray from about 50cm away onto the back side of the piece then give it a good hot iron. Works a treat. Good luck. Nicky x
@@nickynoodlesstitching7368 Thank you! I'll give that a try.
Do you use silks or DMC for the Jane Fiddes? Is it worth the extra cost of the silks? Im debating.
I wondered about your Riley Harbor! I finished mine this year and like you switched the whale to an overdyed. I used Weeks Gunmetal so it looked more like a sperm whale. Love all your stitching!
🐴🐴🐴
I just found you and love your floss tube !!!! I’m laughing because I’m from the upper Midwest of the US and we say ‘neeesh”. I wonder if it’s pronounced “nich” in the south ???? I’m working on The Christmas Fairy Elf from Mirabilia. Love the fairies and pixies. Fairly fast stitches and beautiful !!!
