    Beautiful finishes! You have some gorgeous projects going and getting ready to start too. Love the non stitching you add to your videos. I’m a huge reader too so I always love to see what other people have been reading.

    Hi Cait! Your cross stitch pillows are adorable! I’ll be looking forward to voting on your March Madness. Love watching your progress on the Beatrix Potter Sampler, it’s my favorite of yours. Thanks for the shout out of my shop. Always appreciate it!

I used to spend many happy hours shopping there. Yes please keep us posted with the TV shows and book reviews! Keep up the good works, you are a very talented stitcher.

    Hi Cait! Another great flosstube, thank you!! I started The Last of Us and decided it wasn't for me...but now I am going to have to go back and get through at least episode 3!! (I suppose then I will really be hooked!) Justine (Welcome Stitchery) and I posted a new Flosstube yesterday. If you feel so inclined, so take a look! Have a great week!

    • @cross_stitch_cait1
      @cross_stitch_cait1  Рік тому

      Hey Shelly! I totally watched you and Justine yesterday! :) You look like you have so much fun together. I'm hoping to come down to visit the shop during my spring break in April! Your Stars Hollow piece looks awesome - you're all set for spring - I'm so excited for the retreat and to see what the new pattern will look like. Also, I had to laugh when you talked about not loving Adam and Eves on samplers - I feel the exact same way. I'm trying to figure out an alternative to the Adam and Eve on my Consider the Lilies at the moment...
      And episode 3 of The Last of Us is totally a stand alone, so as long as you have a general idea of what the show is about, you don't even have to watch the rest of ep.1 or start ep.2 :) Take care and have fun at Market!

    Okay, I just ordered some Brown Sugar by Fiber on a Whim and my cut was really green too! I have From Nature to Needle on my list to stitch too, it's so cute and I love literally everything she does! Anyways, fantastic update! You really are such a natural at this and your stitching is so freaking beautiful!! Happy stitching! 💜 And please keep the non-stitchy content! I always can use a good book/tv/podcast rec! 😉

    Hi. Nice spending time with you as I worked on Long Dog Samplers piece "Saint Georges." I do not necessarily like the non-cross stitch content; however, I do watch and listen as they give me insights into what your generation (at least a segment of it) is watching, reading and/or finds relevant or retro. In addition to the Long Dog Samplers WIP, I am also planning to finish and frame my oldest WIP (Joan Elliott's "Kimono Row") some time this spring. I put my first stitch on it in the last year of the 20th Century and have worked on it off and on while "life" happened, and many TV shows have come and gone and now cool and retro. Stay safe and well.

    • @cross_stitch_cait1
      @cross_stitch_cait1  Рік тому

      Thanks so much for your feedback! I will always try to keep the non-stitchy content to the end of the videos in case you ever want to leave early! I totally get it :) You stay safe and well too!

    Those pillows are adorable! I'm hoping to get some done soon also. I was watching @StemXStitch the other day and she has a bunch of smalls too. She's doing a series of mini paintings that could be good for some quick stitching in the future.
    Below Deck is my fav! I watch all versions... Adventure, Sailing Yacht, Med, etc.
    Circe is on my list too, but if you like audiobooks while stitching, I recommend anything by Taylor Jenkins Reid or Alice Feeney. Both great newer authors that I've discovered.
