    You are now one of my “immediate click” videos, love your stitching. A vote for fruits of plenty, I would add a leaf to the twig below the spot, just so your eye doesn’t go to that area in the future. I have that pattern as well for a future start, working on MFE’s 2024SAL now.

    • @therunnerstitcher
      @therunnerstitcher  8 місяців тому

      Aww thank you so much! That means a lot and I'm glad you're enjoying coming on this journey with me :). That's a good idea for fruits! I'll look into that. MFE 2024 SAL looks just as amazing! Jacob designs such great pieces!

    Hi Andrew! So happy to see you again! LOVE, LOVE, LOVE your stitching. I paused the video before you showed us the “error” you made when stitching and I couldn’t find it. So, with that being said, I would leave it UNLESS it will bother you. If you are ok with it, leave it because I doubt very much anyone would know something was “off” unless you show them. Thank you for the idea of making needle minders out of pins/charms!!! I am going to make some now!!! Love the tweety! So cute!!! Safe travels home!!!

    • @therunnerstitcher
      @therunnerstitcher  8 місяців тому

      Thank you so much! I'm glad you're enjoying the videos and joining me on my cross stitch adventure :). Good to know about Fruits and thank you for your input! Making the needleminders has been so much fun. Charms are very easy because they are typically already flat on the back! My boyfriend actually found the tweety at the thrift store and I was so happy he did :). Happy stitching!

    YAY congratulations on hitting that 2000 stitches 👏.
    Fruits of plenty looks fab and if you are happy then that's truly what matters Andrew, it's going to be on your wall.
    Glad you had a lovely visit with your boyfriend, its a shame he didn't get the sunshine/warmth he was hoping for.
    I am very envious of you sitting poolside stitching, it sound perfect, especially as i am in dreary uk.
    Take care, safe journey home and see you next time.

    • @therunnerstitcher
      @therunnerstitcher  8 місяців тому

      Thanks so much! 😊. And you're right, I shouldnt' stress over it if I am happy with the piece :). The poolside stitching was such a luxury. I'll be heading back to cold NY in a bit too and will be dreaming of it ha. Happy stitching!

    I'd leave those motifs where they are in Fruits. I would have never thought anything was wrong with it. Love the greens!
    I'm still working on the 80s pattern 😊
    Your magical pattern is so cute 1 over 1. I love that you are outlining them 2 over 1.
    Hope you have a great rest of your week!

    All of your projects look amazing. I love your little dragons they are so cute. I don’t know if I could stitch 1 over 1. My eyes are not that young anymore. Your Fruits of Plenty I would leave it, maybe add another little star in the space. When you said you had a mistake I couldn’t see it until you pointed it out. Even if you don’t add a little star it still looks great. If you are anything like me that little open space is going to drive you nuts. I have a project right know I need to frog a little because my open space is to noticeable. Thank you for another great video. I hope you have a great week.

    • @therunnerstitcher
      @therunnerstitcher  8 місяців тому

      Thank you so much for the kind words. I'm glad you are enjoying my journey! Those little spaces always drive us nuts when we know it's there haha. Thank you for your opinion. I think I'll either leave it or add in another small star. Hope you don't have to frog too much on yours! Have a great week

    Hello, Andrew and Winston. Leave fruits of plenty as is. You don't notice it if you hadn't pointed it out. Love all the pieces you are stitching. My favorite part of floss tube is seeing all of the designs that attract you to stitch them. Do you have any Valentine's pieces you plan on stitching?

    • @therunnerstitcher
      @therunnerstitcher  8 місяців тому

      Thank you! Appreciate your input on Fruits. It is so much fun picking out patterns, I think my problem is I want to stitch everything haha. I have a Valentine's piece that I ordered but Idk if it will be in NY yet when I get back. If not, I'll be focusing on The Kiss next month!

    @storyqueststitcher 8 місяців тому +1

    I legitimately said “Oh yay!” out loud when I saw you had a new video! Glad to stitch with you for a quick session.
    I’m currently a very monogamous stitcher and working on my very own Pixel Dragon adventure. Mine is 14-count and quite large, so I am following your mini version with great interest.
    I haven’t made the jump from Aida to anything else yet-so it’s encouraging to hear you talk about how easy it can be to use other fabrics. Maybe I’ll be brave enough to try them soon.
    Thanks for a wonderful video 🙌🏻

    • @therunnerstitcher
      @therunnerstitcher  8 місяців тому

      Aww that's great! I'm glad I was able to stitch with you for a bit! I'd love to see your Pixel Dragon adventure and what Fabric color you chose if you want to share. Honestly I was terrified to try linen, but I found it much better than expected. No harm in trying it, but ultimately just stitch what you love :)

    You have made amazing progress on your projects! Congratulations on meeting your goals! I think it would look nice if you would add one more of the cross motifs down below the star. I definitely wouldn't pull out the stitches. I enjoy watching your flosstube! Keep up the good work!

    I wouldn't worry about the space on the FOP, but if it REALLY bothers you, adding one motif next time you're stitching wouldn't take long. I did think you were talking about moving that big star at first and i was a little panicked on your behalf! Thank you for the very kind mention! It's been wonderful connecting with you. ❤

    • @therunnerstitcher
      @therunnerstitcher  8 місяців тому

      Ok thank you for your opinion :). Yeah at first I thought about moving it and then I was like no way.. it's too big, it'll probably mess up the fabric and it's not THAT noticeable ha. I've loved connecting with you too and was happy to share your channel that I enjoy watching!

    Hello. Love it all. I didn’t even notice that there was a space so it really is up to you. I am also planning the join the February’s “Year of the Dragon” SAL. As for the stiffness in the Aida, I recommend soaking it in hot water then ironing it out. I dye mine and use super hot water. The stiffness is gone. Happy stitching.

    • @therunnerstitcher
      @therunnerstitcher  8 місяців тому

  • @cherylportnoy398
    @cherylportnoy398 8 місяців тому +3

    There is an old wives tale that a mistake in your stitching is an important reminder that none of us are perfect (another says it’s lucky for the recipient) either way…I follow that and don’t frog unless it really will mess up the finished piece. I never would have noticed the mistake if you hadn’t pointed it out…leave it and move on 😊. You said other FT are joy for you…you are a spot of joy for me. Love your FT. I have a totally different stitching style, but your joy over our shared hobby, your positivity…so happy when I see you’ve posted a new video. I can’t keep running as I just had foot surgery, but I will be kind and enjoy my stitching! Safe travels home!

    • @therunnerstitcher
      @therunnerstitcher  8 місяців тому +1

      Our little secret then haha :). Oh great, I'm glad you shared the SAL! I'll keep an eye out for their project! The dragon piece is turning out so cute. It's tough to stitch, but the final piece is so cute with all those tiny stitches ha.

    Your piece for your Odyssey SAL is so cool. It’s been fun watching it all come together. The piece with the bird in it, where you didn’t stitch the one large motif that was two stitches off, looks fine and I never would have known it wasn’t in the right place. If it were mine I would add one more small cross motif in the blank space. I’m stitching Primrose Cottage Valentine Quaker and I got to the very last part which was a border and realized I was off and I think it’s in the middle of the piece. Too much to frog so I am making up the last part of the border. I like the piece so I will figure out something to make it work. It’s in a time out right now. Your wizard pattern will be beautiful when stitched. You are pretty amazing taking on all those complicated patterns. I’m ready to see your haul when you return.

    • @therunnerstitcher
      @therunnerstitcher  8 місяців тому

      Thank you so much! I have really been enjoying the pieces I've been working on. I haven't done many borders yet, but they are intimidating to me to make sure everything lines up! I'm sure you can tweak it so no one will notice! Plus your piece will be even more unique and special!

  • @kristiparker4139
    @kristiparker4139 8 місяців тому +1

    Your Fruits of Plenty looks good, but, adding a tiny cross to fill the space would be fine, too. I am such a slow stitcher....It is fun for me to see the progress you've made on each piece. Looking forward to seeing what you've got up your sleeve next time!

    • @therunnerstitcher

    I would just leave the flowers as they are on the Fruits of Plenty. I stitched it back in 2021. I actually kept up with the monthly SAL, but I’m just a weirdo!😊 I thought it was the most relaxing stitch. It had a calming effect on my brain.

    • @therunnerstitcher
      @therunnerstitcher  8 місяців тому

      That is impressive that you kept up with the SAL! It's a lot of stitches each month ha. Great job! I'd love to see your finish if you want to share a picture. I agree it is such a soothing stitch. Something really lovely about that piece!

    Andrew, don't feel bad about not using WIPS for WIPGO. This year most all of my stitching will be new starts but I'm so excited to begin them. I can't wait for them to be called. Both of my call numbers for WIPGO in Feb. will be for me to begin on Seeking Refuge by Scarlett House. After all, after only the first few stitches they will be WIPS. 😊 I'm enjoying your videos very much. Keep up the good work and happy stitching to you!

    • @therunnerstitcher
      @therunnerstitcher  8 місяців тому +1

    Hey Andrew!
    I think The fruits of plenty looks great as it is. If the little space bothers you-you could add another tiny thing in there, but honestly-I wouldn’t let it bother you. No one will know!
    I need to get mine started but I’m second guessing my thread choices and can’t pull the trigger. A zoom with it sounds fun!

    • @therunnerstitcher
      @therunnerstitcher  8 місяців тому +1

      Hi Jess! Ok I'm glad to hear it's not as noticeable as it is in my head haha. I'm kind of leaning towards adding just one more small star at this point.
      I totally get that. It's hard to choose threads on such a big piece when there's so few colors! Take your time in deciding. When you are ready to start, I'd love to do a Zoom stitchy session with you though!

    You have beautiful stitching. I wouldn't have noticed your mistake at all. If you're a perfectionist your idea of adding a third small motif is a great solution. Other than that I'd leave it just as it is because ir's beautiful.

    Yeah, so happy you are back. I am stitching on the train block of Halloween at Hawk Run Hollow while watching you. Your Odyssey SAL is looking so good. Wow you are speeding thru Fruits of Plenty. I don't usually like green, but it is looking so great. Because of how the pattern is the "mistakes" you made aren't noticeable and it looks fine. I have learned that it is fine to make the pattern your own with little mistakes 😊. I like Lavender and Lace more than Mira and have done my own color conversion for one of the patterns. It is a lot of fun to change the colors. Your Mira is looking gorgeous, especially on the fabric you picked. Your dragons are so cute. I am stitching a couple of projects on black. My tip for you is to get a light pad. They sell them at the Dollar Tree for $5. It really helps to see the holes. Love seeing your projects.❤❤❤

    Your take on stitching decisions with Jacob’s design … “how you wanna conquer it”! I LOVE thinking of stitching in this mentality. It’s like the same mindset as puzzling for me. Thinking ahead about your best approach. Your piece is looking amazing and such great progress! I’ve had my eye on Woodland Enchantress … ooooof she is gorg ❤

      @therunnerstitcher  8 місяців тому

      Thank you for that input, Nic! I agree that it is hard to see the error since it's not symmetrical, but I like the idea of adding one more small motif to even out. Isn't the manatee cute? I couldn't resist ha.

    I spent a lot of time ooohing and aaahing over this video 😂 Your WIPs are looking amazing, and such great progress. I think Fruits of Plenty I would leave as is, but adding one more small flower could be nice. If you frog that big motif and move it, the fabric might get a bit messed up so I totally agree with leaving it. I am absolutely loving the wizard kit you got and am sooooo excited to see you start that...but like me you already have lots of WIPs 😂 Can't wait to see your haul next time 😄

    • @therunnerstitcher
      @therunnerstitcher  8 місяців тому +1

      Aww thank you so much! I really am enjoying my current WIPs and how they are looking. For fruits I was nervous about the fabric getting stretched out weirdly if I frogged that bigger one. I think I'm also leaning toward just adding one more small flower. This is definitely the year of starts/new WIPs for me since I'm new. Next year might have to be a no start year (is that even possible? lol).

    I wouldn't have noticed the personalization if you hadn't shown us. I would leave it unless it really bothers you. And if it does my first choice would be to add in another little motif. I don't frog unless I have to. I really need to get my Fruits of Plenty back out. I've been doing obstacle 5k's for the past few years off and on. Regular 5ks not for a long time. I do the obstacle ones because I like the obstacles. Recently I've decided to increase my cardio and want to be able to walk long distances and run a 5k. So I've started walking with a little jogging. So far my knee is holding up. Take care!
