Necessity is the mother of invention. You came up with an ingenious solution, and so much easier! I lol when you said “I fought the jello box and the jello box won!” Oh my, that was so funny. Your finished piece came out beautifully, congratulations on such a gorgeous finish!
You are one smart lady!!! Thank you so much for this video! I can now finally fully finish this cross stitch pattern! I’m going to use this idea for “O Tannenbaum” by Brenda Gervais when it’s completed also! I love your videos! Jean Garcia
I want to be sure I’m answering you correctly. When I was showing the Casting A Spell and mentioned changing it for Christmas? If so, I meant to use the same chart and just change the colors to reds and greens. Does that make sense? Let me know. ❤️
Hi! Thanks for sharing that the boxes are at Hobby Lobby. When I was stationed in Germany 30 years ago I collected little figurines from our travels and stored them in a glass front hanging cabinet with lots of little shelves. Well the little cabinet got broken and I have been looking and looking for a replacement, for several years now. Your video sent me to Hobby Lobby, I picked up 2 boxes, we're going to add hangers on the back and put my little figurines back on display. The boxes will need to be painted or stained, not there yet. But we have a plan. Thank You, Thank You.
Hello everyone I'm Fredrick by name. I'm here to share a testimony how i get my ex lover back. I was browsing through youtube some days back I came across a comment how Mr Barker have been helping people online getting back to dear ex lover's I thought maybe it was a joke I said let me give it a try so i did he told me what to do so I did I could not believe it that my ex lover who was away for good eight years we finally come back to each other so i said to myself I much use this media to share my testimony and to help other people who are in the same situation, are you troubled looking for solution any type of trouble are you looking for a wife are you looking for a job do you want a child are you looking for financial assistance or looking for a promotion and protection just e-mail ON (SPELLCASTER737@Gmail.COM)
I just saw how to “like” a video on my tv!! You arrow down once, then arrow left to the three dots, click on the dots and it shows the same info we get with the iPad! I hope this helps! I hope all is well with you. You always brighten my day! ❤️❤️
Love your way Niecie, easier is always better. I will definitely be using your tutorial, thanks so much. I kept looking at the way your name is spelled, then realized your name is almost spelled like my Mother's- Berniece.
Yes, ma’am. It’s a nickname for Denise but it’s always been spelled Niecie. Does she go by Bernie? I’ve always thought Bernie and Berniece are fabulous names! Thank you ❤️
A very good tutorial,I'm sure you have inspired a lot of stitchers. I am looking for the pattern, hope I can find me one. Darn, now I have to wait until next Friday to see what you have in store!
I’ve got my nose to the ground trying to find some of these charts. I thought they’d been re-released and were readily available. Hopefully I’ll be able to find some. I hope you’re staying safe and cool. ❤️🤗❤️
The Jello box won... haha! I always thought those directions were odd because the boxes are so flimsy. I’m sure many stitchers will benefit from your methods:-) I’m so happy the chart has been reprinted. Shelly
Thank you for the good tips! I have this all ready to finish but the jello box technique did not blow my skirt up so it's just been sitting and staring at me.
Ha! This is genius! I love how you break down what the final outcome is you want and then here’s the easy way and here’s the hard way. You pick. Thanks for making this video. Hope you had a fun trip with hubby. Blessings and take care.
I know some people like doing things the prescribed way and that’s great. I’m just not one of those people! 😆 I think the world needs both kinds of us to keep the balance. ❤️
That is genius! Screw the jello box. Your version looks great and so much easier. Thanks so much for sharing. BTW- are there other designs for the seasons that will fit in the box? That would be great.
Thank you! There are no other charted designs to fit in it. I planned to stitch the designs in other seasonal colors and swap them out. There is a cover design that fits over the top glass piece in one of the books. I think it says “buttons”. Let me look❤️
Thank you 🙏🏻 so so much for simplifying that difficult black bird design tutorial!!! Love ❤️ your way the best. Do you think 🤔 that the shadow box would work for my designs if I buy the pattern because I only work on 14 count?? Does she have design finish size for 14 count on the pattern!! This shadow box is so different
Hi, Lisa! I did mine on 28 ct and it was tight on a few. Message me on Instagram and I’ll send you a pic of a close up. I know you could adapt it and make it work though. ❤️
Wow. I really didn’t need an enabler!! Lol. Now I’m off to hobby lobby to find my box and paint and wax and blocks and batting and on and on! I’m a trooper though. I’ll drive the hour to get there! Thanks for your great suggestions. Oh, I guess I need to start stitching these too! Love your videos!!!
Those boxes are what I use to store my floss in! I chalk paint them and then use an antiquing wax on them. I love them! A much prettier way to store your goodies!
I think you are on to a much better way. I like it. I don’t like lacing either. I hot glue or Aileen’s glue my stitched piece to the back of sticky board.
You’ve inspired me to start stitching mine! I have fabric snd the box that I have already painted. I’m pulling it out today and will get some stitching started! So many projects and I cannot stitch them all!!! 🤗🤩😍
Thank you for the tutorial and the easier way to finish the larger pieces. I haven't started stitching these yet, but they are on my radar for this year so will be using your finishing ideas ~ thanks again.
I jut got my chart and the box from Hobby Lobby. Now to order the fabric and floss. Would you mind sharing the fabric you used? Did you use the called for floss? Thank you SO much for this fabulous finishing video. You just make my Fridays! Thanks again! Oh, are you going to do all the pieces in the box the same way?
I used a 28 ct evenweave that I had. It made it really tight on a few of the designs. I didn’t have the called for threads. Unfortunately, I didn’t keep records of what I used. I may change some of the designs but I believe you could change the colors and that cover everything but the pumpkins. Change those to eggs, evergreens and watermelons and your all fixed up. Does that make any sense?
Thank you so much! I am gathering the my supplies to start this in August and knew already I wasn’t going to finish it by the pattern. This is a much simpler way. I actual was thinking foam core stacked but I like the wood cubes idea better! Save on fabric too! Couldn’t ask for better timing.
Oh goody! There ‘tis! Thx so much! I love it! I love Blackbird designs and that is the best finish I’ve ever seen. So cool!Thx for sharing all the tricks of the trade. Love the magnet idea.
I loved everything you were showing me I like that box that you were doing and how you did that I'm have to try to find me those boxesfor my cross stitching in my little thimble collection and stay safe be careful out there and God bless and stay warm and stay cool sorry it's been one of those days so God bless and take care 😇😇😇
I so enjoy having lunch with you every Friday and today is no exception! I am sorry, but I laughed my head off at this.....WAY too fiddly for me so I will pass on the box! Who has all those jello boxes anyway...too much sugar for me to have around! I am a magnet addict. I have then everywhere and have killed my computer more than once with them. Have a great weekend!
Morning! I just realized I may not have answered you on an earlier question. Did I ask you which thread you wanted info on my storage of it. Was it the dmc for Health and Peace? Let me know and thank you for being my very patient friend. ❤️
@@niecielynn I have figured out how to put them on a ring and cut the bottom, but what do you do with the "leftover" thread? The pieces that are long enough to use? right now I am putting them on a card I made, but not sure that is going to work for me. Thanks kiddo.
@@niecielynn i ordered from 3 stitches and they had to refund my order because they ran out of stock. i ordered from another spot and still waiting to hear if they will be able to complete my order...
Super informative. Thanks. Do you know what is called when you finish a project that stands up like a picture frame? You know the one that has the piece on the back that props it up. 😍😍😍. FYI. I know what tump means, and yes it is a word. 😂
Just wanted to congratulate you on th ENABLING. I just purchased a copy of Jane Greenoff's Antique Style Samplers. Are you planning to backstitch as they show?
Good morning! Yes, ma’am. I don’t mind back stitching though. I’m sure you could leave off some, especially on the flowers, if you don’t enjoy backstitching. ❤️
I have this pattern on my list to do & after a long trail today of someone else talking about this pattern, to a website, to this, i found hobby lobby does not have the box anymore. Im not sure if it is just out of stock or no longer available. I have found some others who put them all together as a sampler on one piece & it looks cute. Once i get to actually stitching this pattern, ill have to see what the options are then. Here is the link to the box on hobby lobby for anyone interested in keeping tabs on it: www.hobbylobby.com/Crafts-Hobbies/Painting-Surfaces/Wood/Wood-Jewelry-Box-With-Compartments/p/28875
I thought they had re-released this pattern and that it was readily available. I’ve got feelers out and will let you know. Hopefully we can find some. 🤞🤗❤️
Niecey if you are finished with your pattern I will be happy to buy it from you for what you paid for it. Just let me know. Love your videos!!! I can’t find that pattern anywhere!
Thank you! I have promised it to sweet friend nearly a year ago. I have feelers out trying to find some though. I thought they had been re-released and were easy to get. Hopefully we can get a hold of some. 🤞🤗❤️
Your way looks so much easier. I added a link to your tutorial on the Casting a Spell on my website. I have two boxes and the finished piece is still in the drawer. Nice job.
Love this! Great heads up for us all. Thanks so much for figuring out a better way and sharing it with us all! Question/Idea - How totally sold are you on the glass top/cover? Would it work for you to remove the lid and do up that lovely rope trim to match and attach it to the box like a frame, but still being able then to see all the stitching on the edges? Just a thought as I watched! Thanks again for your great videos. Love seeing you pop up on my watchlist!! 😎👍😎
Thank you! I think the top would come right off. There are only six small screws, two on each hinge and two on the bottom latch. It would definitely uncover the edges of the stitching too. Great idea! ❤️
I'm a new subscriber. Can you tell me where you got the "blessed be" for the pattern? I just ordered the pattern but the photo shows that it says Halloween.
I thought they had re-released the pattern. I’ve had several people say they can’t find it though. I’m putting out feelers to try and find some for y’all. Thank you for letting me know that the pattern isn’t readily available. Hopefully, we can find some. 🤞🤗❤️
Thanks for the names. I tried but not to be found there either. Guess I will have to just make up something to put in my box! You are a sweet friend, I appreciate your help! 😊

I bought it at Home Depot. It was $12 for the whole piece, I think it was 8 ft. I wanted to do both of my boxes so I bought the whole thing. (I think we already talked, but in case someone is looking on here for that answer) ❤️🤗❤️
I did forget to say that I just hot glue them on with my regular hot glue gun. Nothing special. E6000 glue would work too but be sure you have good ventilation. It’s powerful stinky! ❤️
Great idea! I have that chart and box, just wasn’t looking forward to the finishing. I want to stitch it and maybe change the colors. I don’t stitch much Halloween anymore. Where did you find the lettering for “Blessed Bee”? I really like how it looks. Thanks for sharing!😊
Thank you! I think I made it up. I can take a close up of the “blessed be” and email it to you. If you think you can use it as a chart? If I saw it somewhere else, I don’t remember it. I tend to just stitch things like that on the fly, so it’s not written down anywhere. ❤️
Phew! I'm stressed out by the jello boxes and I havent even stitched it😂😉 thank goodness I wasn't the one wrestling with finishing that, it wouldve gone into permanent time out😱😳
Hi I stopped by to visit you're Lovely channel. I hit all the buttons and bell I hope you do too Tyfs ❤ I'm soooo Looking forward to seeing more videos!! Have a wonderful day much love to you 🥰
I really love this box and finally found the pattern after searching so many places. I am so very happy you posted this tutorial. I am definitely going to use your finishing technique! So much less stress! Since i am still new to stitching i have a question for you about the fabric to choose. It calls for 30ct linen. What fabric did you use? I don't believe there is an exact conversion to evenweave fabric that i could find because i want the pieces to come out exactly the size needed. Is stitching on linen difficult? Since i have never stitched on linen do you have any tips? thank you again for the tutorial! Have a great weekend.
Hi, Mella! I stitched on 28 ct evenweave but it is tricky. Some of the designs are on the edge of the backing board when you finish them. You will be fine on the 30 ct linen! It’s marginally smaller and you can get a linen without or with very few slubs in it. Do you have an needlework shop that you use? They will help you find a smooth 30 ct to use for this design. Let me know if I missed something ❤️
@@niecielynn Thanks! I did read pattern again and see that 28ct or 30ct was called for. I think i will stick with the 30 ct and i found an online store that actually still has the pattern and also sells a thread pack for it. I will post it here if anyone is looking for it. She also has some of the called for linen in Confederate Grey. The pattern is $9.95 and thread pack for it is $11 just search casting a spell on her site. Her site is worth a look. I don't have a local need work shop out here as far as you can go west in Texas:) www.anitalittlestitches.com/index.html
Thanks for this!! I just caught your interview with SamBrie Stitches! It was a hoot! Just wanted to share with you that I also LOVE Elizabeth Peters and her Amelia Peabody Series! My sister and I actually met her once and then later when on a once in a lifetime trip to Egypt with her!! It was called the Amelia Peabody Adventure!! Check out my short video of the iteneriary!! Here's the shortcut: ua-cam.com/video/9oCeQT1Qbz4/v-deo.html
OMG! That is an absolute dream trip! Those are all the things I dream of seeing and got to meet the Queen of Egyptology? Thank you for sharing your itinerary and letting me dream along with it. ❤️
Niecie Lynn Yes it was a once-in-a-lifetime trip LOL my sister and I work two jobs to afford that three week journey. We feel blessed to have got to spend some time with the queen.
Genius idea and finishing. Love your idea. Beautiful stitching and finishing. Enjoyed the tutorial. Thank you!
Absolutely fantastic idea! Thank you sharing this idea!
Just getting to finishing this one, and you made it so much easier ❤ thank you so much!
Lady you are a genius!!! FANTASTIC!!!
Thank you! Truly just desperate for an easier way! 😆🤗❤️
Loved this tutorial. Thank you so much.
Thanks so much for the tutorial. I didn’t want to finish mine until I saw your tutorial. Thanks for the advice!
You got this! ❤️
Very creative! Your ideas look great. Always enjoy your video's.
You are awesome, great tutorial. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you so much! ❤️
Great idea. Thanks for sharing.
You are a genius! Thanks for sharing!
You make it sound doable! Great job!
A great tutorial, thank you. stay safe.
Great tutorial. There is always more than one way to skin a cat. Love the trim u are going to use .
Thank you for this video. I have pattern and 2 boxes so can't wait to stitch it!!!
Necessity is the mother of invention. You came up with an ingenious solution, and so much easier! I lol when you said “I fought the jello box and the jello box won!” Oh my, that was so funny. Your finished piece came out beautifully, congratulations on such a gorgeous finish!
Who would have thought? I could hold my own with the devil but that jello box got me! 😬😆❤️
Your way is soooo much easier! Love it!!
Morning, Shelley! Thank you ❤️
You are one smart lady!!! Thank you so much for this video! I can now finally fully finish this cross stitch pattern! I’m going to use this idea for “O Tannenbaum” by Brenda Gervais when it’s completed also!
I love your videos!
Jean Garcia
Jean, I just went and looked at O Tannenbaum. How cute is that! Thank you for your sweet words and enabling me 😆🤗❤️
Thanks for taking your time to do the tutorial! I’m so glad the pieces no longer “tump” out...lol.
Yes! No more tumping 😆🤗❤️
Oh my dear I love you more every time that you taught us your incredible tutorials , God bless you!!!
Can you tell me please the name ofthe chart box for Christmas?
Thanks in advance
I want to be sure I’m answering you correctly. When I was showing the Casting A Spell and mentioned changing it for Christmas? If so, I meant to use the same chart and just change the colors to reds and greens. Does that make sense? Let me know. ❤️
Niecie Lynn yes my dear
Thanks a lot
Now that is finishing genius!

Oh mylanta... you cracked me up. Your way looked great, easier an a lot neater than the jello box deal. I like your box as it is. Happy to find you...
Great tutorial !!!
You did a great job thanks for the video. I never understood the Jell-O box I made mine into little pillows on the four corners.
Yes! I didn’t trust my sewing skills enough to try the little pillow finishes at the time, or I certainly would have done the same thing. ❤️

Your way looks so much easier. I added a link to your tutorial on the Casting a Spell on my website. I have two boxes and the finished piece is still in the drawer. Nice job.
Thank you so much! That means so much coming from an experienced stitcher like you. I’ve been admiring your stitching for years. ❤️🤗❤️
I needed that tutorial 😊thx.
Love this! Great heads up for us all. Thanks so much for figuring out a better way and sharing it with us all!
Question/Idea - How totally sold are you on the glass top/cover? Would it work for you to remove the lid and do up that lovely rope trim to match and attach it to the box like a frame, but still being able then to see all the stitching on the edges? Just a thought as I watched!
Thanks again for your great videos. Love seeing you pop up on my watchlist!!
😎👍😎
Thank you! I think the top would come right off. There are only six small screws, two on each hinge and two on the bottom latch. It would definitely uncover the edges of the stitching too. Great idea! ❤️
I'm a new subscriber. Can you tell me where you got the "blessed be" for the pattern? I just ordered the pattern but the photo shows that it says Halloween.
Do you have any idea where I can find the book of patterns? I have the box can't find pattern. Thanks for any help!
I thought they had re-released the pattern. I’ve had several people say they can’t find it though. I’m putting out feelers to try and find some for y’all. Thank you for letting me know that the pattern isn’t readily available. Hopefully, we can find some. 🤞🤗❤️
@@niecielynn Thank you for trying. Time is precious I appreciate you!

Thanks for the names. I tried but not to be found there either. Guess I will have to just make up something to put in my box! You are a sweet friend, I appreciate your help! 😊
Dollar Tree has those small wooden squares. I don't know how many are in the package but there are alot for $1.00.
I never thought to look there. I love Dollar Tree! ❤️

A much easier way!
Where did you buy the rope trim that yo showed that you will add?
I bought it at Home Depot. It was $12 for the whole piece, I think it was 8 ft. I wanted to do both of my boxes so I bought the whole thing. (I think we already talked, but in case someone is looking on here for that answer) ❤️🤗❤️
WhT kind of glue do you use to attach the magnets and washers?
I did forget to say that I just hot glue them on with my regular hot glue gun. Nothing special. E6000 glue would work too but be sure you have good ventilation. It’s powerful stinky! ❤️
Niecie Lynn thank you
Great idea! I have that chart and box, just wasn’t looking forward to the finishing. I want to stitch it and maybe change the colors. I don’t stitch much Halloween anymore. Where did you find the lettering for “Blessed Bee”? I really like how it looks. Thanks for sharing!😊
Thank you! I think I made it up. I can take a close up of the “blessed be” and email it to you. If you think you can use it as a chart? If I saw it somewhere else, I don’t remember it. I tend to just stitch things like that on the fly, so it’s not written down anywhere. ❤️
Niecie Lynn Thanks for your reply. I’ll try and figure something out and will let you know if I need more info.😊
After looking, I think I used the alphabet in the chart for your initials. ❤️
Niecie Lynn thank you!🙂
Phew! I'm stressed out by the jello boxes and I havent even stitched it😂😉 thank goodness I wasn't the one wrestling with finishing that, it wouldve gone into permanent time out😱😳
It nearly did! We’d got into a battle of wills and I’m too hard-headed to quit though. Leave it to me to fight a box! 😆🤗❤️
Hi I stopped by to visit you're Lovely channel. I hit all the buttons and bell I hope you do too Tyfs ❤ I'm soooo Looking forward to seeing more videos!! Have a wonderful day much love to you 🥰
Good Morning ☀️ and Good Idea 💡!! More Power to You for “Thinking Outside the Box”” lol, pun intended, lol! Have a Great Weekend!-Marie
You too, Marie! Happy Saturday! ❤️
I really love this box and finally found the pattern after searching so many places. I am so very happy you posted this tutorial. I am definitely going to use your finishing technique! So much less stress! Since i am still new to stitching i have a question for you about the fabric to choose. It calls for 30ct linen. What fabric did you use? I don't believe there is an exact conversion to evenweave fabric that i could find because i want the pieces to come out exactly the size needed. Is stitching on linen difficult? Since i have never stitched on linen do you have any tips? thank you again for the tutorial! Have a great weekend.
Hi, Mella! I stitched on 28 ct evenweave but it is tricky. Some of the designs are on the edge of the backing board when you finish them. You will be fine on the 30 ct linen! It’s marginally smaller and you can get a linen without or with very few slubs in it. Do you have an needlework shop that you use? They will help you find a smooth 30 ct to use for this design. Let me know if I missed something ❤️
@@niecielynn Thanks! I did read pattern again and see that 28ct or 30ct was called for. I think i will stick with the 30 ct and i found an online store that actually still has the pattern and also sells a thread pack for it. I will post it here if anyone is looking for it. She also has some of the called for linen in Confederate Grey. The pattern is $9.95 and thread pack for it is $11 just search casting a spell on her site. Her site is worth a look. I don't have a local need work shop out here as far as you can go west in Texas:)
