First time viewer. You are a delight! All your WIPS and finishes are beautiful! The knitting is awesome. I love the cowl and mittens. How lovely that your husband is knitting with you. Looking forward to your next video😁❤️
❤❤❤ love seeing all your wips! I don’t knit but I do crochet and I am crocheting my first sock🤗 it’s fun to do something different sometimes. Thank you for sharing! Enjoy your retreat! Congratulations to Paolo on his new hobby.
I love your current hairstyle. It’s very flattering. Congratulations on your knitting progress. I love your fearlessness. Those color work mittens will be so beautiful. I think you should gift your first musselburgh hat to yourself. You are the most knit worthy person you know.
Hi Julie!! Yes! I think the musselburgh hat will be mine after all that knitting!! ❤😊Thanks for watching and for the kind words! 🪡🧵❤😊happy stitching! Lisa
Enjoyed watching your video. Thank you for sharing your projects. Your fur baby was enjoying it too. A cuddler. The scenery is beautiful-nature is amazing.
Your Cowl is amazing, the tension is very good. I started knitting 45 Years ago and I’m a sock knitter. I always take a sock project with me, just in case I’ve to wait or there is a little space of time to knit further on. So happy you joined in too. Happy stitching!
Hi Lisa, So good to see you again. Loved the photo montage at the end. What a beautiful Island. I would so love to visit one day. I am so sorry about your hands. How awful! I have some arthritis in my one hand and it can be a problem for holding. things, so I get it. I'm sure others understand that as well, but to keep you from stitching - well that is harsh.. I am glad you have knitting as an alternative. The yarn warms your hands as well, I am sure. I have to agree with another stitcher below and say that the cowl and mittens you took on as a project are not beginner level stitching, And you have done so well. You have inspired me. I will have to try some of these type of projects. I also very much enjoyed your insert of smalls gifts. How very beautiful they are. What. do you stuff your pillow with? For pin cushions, my mom always said sawdust was the best. I will have to find me a source. Your finishes are always so colorful and beautiful as well. Thanks so much for sharing. You are an inspiration to me.
Hi Virginia! I stuff my pillows with polyfil and crushed walnut shells/polybeads❤😊 Thanks for watching and for the kind words! 🪡🧵❤😊happy stitching! Lisa
We were just in Tofino the first week of October -love it. We will go again! Good for you being able to knit with your hands hurting. I’ve had three surgeries on my hands and with one hand found the only thing I could do was wind yarn and use a knitting machine to make stocking caps.😂 (well, besides shopping on line for cross stitch)
As usual love your stitching, however wow girl your knitting looks fabulous for a newbie well done!! I am heading to Stitch North it is my first time, I am so looking forward to going and meeting new friends including you and your Mum! Safe travels 😊
Always love your videos. Your knitting is super cute and I especially love those little mittens. Have a great time at Stitch North with your Mum and Happy Stitching 🌸💞🌸
Lisa, I always enjoy your episodes and all your crafty adventures. As a fellow knitter, I am so impressed with the projects you have mastered so quickly in your knitting journey. The beautiful projects you have chosen and completed are not what I would consider "beginner" projects, and you have done beautiful work. I hope your hands give you some reprieve from the pain soon so you can enjoy all your beautiful work pain-free. Enjoy the retreat with your Mom!
Hi Luanne!! Let's just say that perseverance and determination won out with the knitting! Lots of learning from mistakes and fixing, but I got it!! Happy stitching ❤😊
Love your finishes and your progress on your wips. Beautiful pictures at the end. It was so nice to meet you at StitchNorth. Happy stitching and knitting!
I love your videos and all your projects. I am a ten year cancer survivor of 2 cancers and I so admire your uplifting attitude. Enjoyed your video from your recent trip. You and your husband are so cute together.
You are a stitching machine 🤩! I started watching you when I was cross stitching and then I watched The Crazy Sock Lady. Thought I was something else after I completed her Vanilla Socks but you…what a super star! I take my sock knitting everywhere and find so much joy in the knitting process. It’s also very calming for me as well. Loved seeing all your stitch goodness, updates on your family and the clips of your cute husband. Hope you and Mom have a grand time at Stitch North. Till next time….
Hi Susan! The socks were definitely a challenge, but patience won out and I got through it!! Thanks so much for watching and for your kind words! ❤😊Happy stitching! Lisa
For not getting as much done you still accomplished a lot Lisa. I am looking forward to the weekend….and I get to meet your lovely mother! Quilting is great fun…you would enjoy it. 🦉🍂🍁🧵
Hi Paula! Yes the scarves are on Ravelry! The sophie scarf is from petitknit and the cowl is by Kay Lipton❤😊Thanks for watching and for the kind words! 🪡🧵❤😊happy stitching! Lisa
I hope you have the best time at Stitch North! I almost went and now that you are going I am so sad I didn’t. Maybe I will be able to go next year, I would love to meet you. I will pray that your hands feel better soon and you can stitch the days away at retreat!
I am so excited for Stitch North!!! I’m coming in from Hobby House on Thursday night! Let me know if you need anything from Hobby House - I’ll be there with Alana (Mrs Smith Stitches). Unfortunately she can’t make Stitch North this time.
Wow! For a relatively new knitter your work is awesome! I love making Musselburgh hats, I have made 4 now with plans for more. I have also made the Sophie Scarf, which was fun. And socks, way to go and welcome to the sock knitting club!
Lisa you look so beautiful and happy and your new hair looks so cute, I love it. I can see that you are living and loving life to its fullest. You and Paolo look so happy together. Beautiful pictures and videos at the end. I always enjoy seeing all your vacation pictures and videos. You live in such a beautiful country. I would love to travel to Canada someday. Your cross stitch pieces you are working on are amazing. I absolutely love your Mirabila you are working on and your knitting is amazing. What you have made does not look like you are a beginner. I’ve been wanting to learn how to knit for a while but I am afraid to try and start. My mom tried teaching me when I was like 12 or 13. I kept dropping stitches and she would make me tear it all out and start over. I finally just gave up. I think that if she would have had a little more patience with me I might have stuck to it. I think that is where my fear is coming from now. I think it is so cute that Paolo is learning to knit with you. My husband would never do any kind of stitch or craft. He thinks an only a girls thing to do. Have a great time with your mum at Stitch North. Looking forward to your next FlossTube and seeing all your pictures and videos from Stitch North❤❤❤❤
What incredible stitching and knitting. And I love hubby is joining in knitting with you. Thanks for sharing those pictures and videos from your adventures. Our beautiful earth. ❤
I love that you and your husband are knitting together! Hopefully your hands will have less pain so that you can cross stitch a little more. I hope that you and your mother have a beautiful time together at the retreat. Take care of yourself and I can't wait to see your next flosstube.
I was so glad to come across your update. It has been awhile and I was worried you weren’t well. Glad it was just a cold. I understand your hand pain as I also suffer from arthritis. Variety in activities certainly helps. Praying that your pain eases. Have fun at Stitch North with your mom. I also share my love of stitching with my mom. We did several quilt retreats together and had such fun. We’ll take care of yourself and stitch on. 🩷🤗
So wonderful to see you - I was just starting to worry a little we hadn't seen you. Sorry you weren't feeling great but glad you are on the mend and loving your photos from being away and enjoying life. Big hugs xx
Hello Sally my friend!!! Yes it has been a busy fall and a few weeks of illness really set me back! Thanks for watching and for the kind words! 🪡🧵❤😊happy stitching! Lisa
All of your wips are absolutely gorgeous!!!! I especially love the blackbird pieces your are working on- seeing your monthly blocks makes me want to start that one as well! I have had similar issues with my hands. Due to my mg, there are days where i lose control of my hands, so i cant grip the needle and have trouble pulling the floss thru or fastening the tail in the back. And its disconcerting bc i have SO many designs i want to start, and wips on the go, but my body just wont let me stitch as fast as my mind wants me to! I try and remain positive- im super grateful im able to stitch at all, but its my one passion and i cant imagine losing my ability to do it. All i can do is take lots of breaks and do what i can when i can, right?! Your ffo's are STUNNING! happy stitching lisa!🐈⬛🪡❤️
You and your husband are adorable ❤what beautiful cross stitching 🧵 and wow! Your knitting 🧶 looks like you have been doing it for a long time! Amazing 🤩 Wishing you 🙏 a wonderful trip and time at Stitch North ❤
Hi Evelyn! ❤😊 the knitting ahs been an awesome new adventure and I was determined to learn and practice until I got it right!! Thanks for watching and for the kind words! 🪡🧵❤😊happy stitching! Lisa
Lisa I can’t believe you are just learning to knit. You do beautiful work. You are doing very detailed patterns, great work. I loved all your WIPS too. You look so good. Wishing for you a😅
Hi Kathy!! It has taken a lot of failed attempts but I got the knitting now!! That cowl was almost the "cowl that never was!" 😂SO MANY MISTAKES!!! Hahaha Thanks so much for watching and for your kind words! ❤😊Happy stitching! Lisa
I enjoyed catching up with your stitching Lisa.After 28 years of cross stitching in 2018,I taught myself to knit and it was a blessing in disguise when I had neuropathy in my hands from chemo.drugs in 2023 and even now it exercises my fingers.Your projects are beautiful, you have certainly dived into knitting😊
That's so lovely that Paolo is learning to knit. What fun to sit together, sipping wine and creating. Have fun at Stitch North. Attending is on my bucket list for sure.
Another wonderful video! So great to see you! My husband has joined me in the Cross Stitch World, so its fantastic to see Paolo learn to knit! The video at the end was stunning. That sunset took my breath away!!! Have fun at the Stitch North retreat!!!
Hi Beth! Thanks for watching and for the kind words! Tofino is my happy place and I always leave feeling grateful and grounded🪡🧵❤😊happy stitching! Lisa
It was fun to share the beauty of the beach and particularly the forest that beautiful sunset. Your venture into knotting is pulling me in. I want to start my Sophie scarf as soon as I can get materials. Fun to see Paolo joining in. Enjoy Stitch North. ❤
I had been thinking about you over the weekend, was hoping for a video soon and there you were today !! Your stitching is just beautiful. Love seeing everything you are doing. And you are knitting !! My mom was a knitter and made beautiful sweaters for us growing up. Wish I had them now, don't know what happened to them. But I do have afghans she made. Enjoy Stitch North and time with your mom. Looking forward to the next video. Oh, you and your husband are such a lovely couple.
Thank you for sharing your photos, brought me down memory lane, we lived on the island for many years! Love to see all the knitting, I learned to knit from my Grandmother as a child, my mother also knitted & crocheted. Taught her how to quilt when I retired home. Have a great trip to Stitch North & visit with your mum, time well spent 😊 Happy Stitchin
Love that you’re loving life. Seems it’s so full of adventure, laughter and love. What a blessing to have all of that in life that a lot of folks never have. Thx for inserting the missing project pix from your finish parade. They are gorgeous! You’re a genius pulling bits from patterns and making them so pretty as pillows, etc. Your hair is really growing in thick. My friend’s has grown back in thick too. Enjoy Stitch North…with your mom no less! Thx for the video and beautiful pix. Been to Victoria but not the gardens. Darn it! Don’t think I’ve ever seen live starfish before! Wow!
So great to see a new video from you. You're hair is looking beautiful!! Knitting is something I have never been able to accomplish, so I give accolades to you for teaching yourself stitches cross stitch piece are all so perfect❤ cabt wait to hear about Stitch North. And I was so happy to see Palo learning to knit. I just know that he would move heaven and earth for you and you for him ❤
You are an amazing and beautiful lady. Enjoy time with your mom and I love the fact that your lovely hubbie is learning to knit with wine, the best combo!!! x
Hi Diane! I am so looking forward this weekend with mom and all the stitchy friends!!😊❤ The wine was a definite necessity lol😂 Thanks so much for watching and for your kind words! ❤😊Happy stitching! Lisa
great video. best thing my parents ever decided to do was take on exchange students from Japan while i was in high school. That was some &*^&^% number of years ago, but our families are still close. We've gone through births, marriages, and deaths with each other. Cheers to you on that journey! Also, i never wanted to knit until you said there is something called "lichen in my crevices"! As a PNW girl, i feel like i NEED to use that to make something! Thanks - i really needed another hobby.....lol - - jenny
I so enjoy your travel pictures. I can’t believe you taught yourself to knit and you have tackled such a variety of projects. I’m knitting challenged, so I have to live vicariously through those that are actually successful. Enjoy your retreat and time with your mom!
Hi Vicki!! It has certainly been an adventure learning to knit, and LOTS of failed attempts! But I really wanted to know how to do it, so patience and perserverance won out!! ❤😊Thanks so much for watching and for your kind words! ❤😊Happy stitching! Lisa
Your cross stitching is always wonderful. But your sock knitting is fabulous. You had me at the Sophie scarf. I was looking for some gift stitching. Wonderful episode
Lisa, is there anything you can't do? You look like you have been knitting for years. And, yay to your husband for wanting to learn. Love your cross stitching and have fun at the retreat!
Hi Sharon! Thanks ! It's definitely a different look and feel but it's growing on me! Thanks for watching and for the kind words! 🪡🧵❤😊happy stitching! Lisa
Love your video Lisa. I finished your winter cardinal pattern! It's a gift for my niece this Christmas. My sewing room flooded so I can't get my hands on the pattern and may have the name wrong but enjoyed the stitch. Love that you and Paolo are knitting. Best wishes.
Hi Jayne! ❤😊 a flooded craft room = 😮😢 Hope you didn't lose too much of your beloved crafty goodness! Thanks for watching and for the kind words! 🪡🧵❤😊happy stitching! Lisa
So nice to see you. I think about you. Glad you are feeling better and had a lovely trip and off for stitchy fun with your Mom. Beautiful stitch pieces, as always. Nice to see your husband beginning to knit!
Your photos are gorgeous. Canada is on my bucket list. I've been to Victoria, but nowhere else. You are so beautiful inside and out, and what a great hubby to learn to stitch.
You’re looking so good! Yay but aw for the tamoxifen pain. Oh that quilt one is so pretty. Wow, can’t figure out patterns at all in knitting. Awesome for teaching yourself! Wow look at you! A sock❤❤🎉 loving the colours of the yarn! Feel better and hope you have fun at stitch North and don’t get sick! Love all the bird ones. I want to do the red and blue ones. Oh ink circle one is beautiful colours and finish! How cute the rocking chair! Oh that would be such fun with your mum! So miss my mum. Enjoy! Pictures at the end are beautiful! I am so so happy for you. Hugs the beach ones,are they all Van island, if so which coast.
Hi Cindy!! Thanks so much for watching and for your kind words! ❤😊 the Beaches are all on Vancouver Island, and all along rhe coast between ucluelet and tofino!! It's my happy place! Happy stitching! Lisa
Hi Clare!! Victoria is a wonderful place and currently topping our retirement list!! Thanks for watching and for the kind words! 🪡🧵❤😊happy stitching! Lisa
What a great Flosstube. You look wonderful and such beautiful projects. Congrats to hubby on his knitting. Have a great time at Stitch North! Excited to see your recap. Beautiful ending!
Hi Colleen! I didn't know colourowrk was supposed to be hard!! Bahaha😂 I just tried it (and made.lots of mistakes) until I got it right! Lol Thanks for watching and for the kind words! 🪡🧵❤😊happy stitching! Lisa
Those are amazing pictures at the end of your video! You are a great photographer. I am so sorry your hands are giving you fits. 😢 Take care, sweet lady. Hugs.❤
So happy to see this Lisa. I’m glad it was from busyness that kept you away. So sorry you were ill before your trip though but you look well now. 🙏 continued prayers for strength and health. Such a beautiful smile!Have a wonderful time at Stitch North and your upcoming trip to Newfoundland! I loved seeing your new craft & the color work. Just lovely. I still struggle with knitting and can only do a basic hat or scarf 🧣 and they take me forever. Kudos to your husband for trying a new adventure! ❤ I do have to keep my hands busy though. Holidays will keep me busy I’m thinking but I have enjoyed my second ever retreat locally and think I’m hooked on retreats! Loved every minute. I have been absent on flosstube myself with all the coming and going but hope to give an update before November. It definitely is a process for me. Happy stitching!
Hi Lynda !Thanks so much for watching and for your kind words! The Fall is always busy for me, so I definitely understand the struggle and process of getting to a Flosstube! ❤😊Happy stitching! Lisa
My heart is happy to see you back on Flosstube! Great vacation pictures, so happy you and Paulo are enjoying life. Take care, hope you are feeling 100% better soon and have fun at Stitch North! You’ll have to compare knitting notes with Kerri! Oh my gosh, I love your Songbird Mittens! I am knitting challenged, I couldn’t do it even if you paid me, and if you did, you’d want a refund!
Hi Jeanne!! ❤😊Thanks so much! I am having so much fun with the knitting!! Trust me! It has been a journey to get this far with the knitting, but I just practiced lots! 😊😊😊 its such a calming hobby! (Whe you're not dropping stitches or messing up the pattern!😅lol) Happy Stitching and thanks for watching ! 😊Lisa
Enjoyed your video so much. Your Nan Green would be so proud of you for learning to knit! She taught me how-to turn the heel on a sock and to knit double mittens. Have a fantastic time with your Mom and I am so looking forward to seeing you in November. Love from Newfoundland ❤
Oh I was just so happy to see your post today. Have been thinking about you and hoping all was well. I do understand about a busy Fall though. Seems like there is something going on every day. Sometimes we just need to stop for a while and regroup. Hope your retreat is a therapy for you! Your knitting is coming along beautifully. I think I just knitted scarves for years before I started tackling more difficult patterns. Now my favorite is knitting sweaters...they are just so practical to throw on with your jeans in the fall and spring. Seems our weather here in the NW is so iffy, I keep a sweater at hand all the time. Wish I were closer so we could have an afternoon knitting over a cup of tea. Praying for your hands....though knitting will keep them limber, at least, I am sure you want to get back on your stitching as well. Praying strength, healing and blessings to you and your family!
Hi Lisa, so great to meet you at Stitch North! (this is terri, and i'm stitching Stained Glass Lighthouse with you) i really enjoyed your pictures and videos at the end. we love Vancouver Island, and have been to Tofino a couple of times. Did you make it to the Tacofino food truck? I hope it's still there (fingers crossed). We were last there in september 2019, and stayed at MIddle Beach Lodge. we also spent some time in Victoria, and of course i recognized that you got to Butchart Gardens - the dahlias and the fuchsias are amazing that time of year. now that we live a bit closer we're planning a trip for later next spring! take care, terri
So happy to see you. Your cross stitch projects are beautiful especially the Mirabilia one. WOW...your knitting pieces are amazing. You've definitely tackled some difficult projects and they look awesome. I love the mitten pattern and I'm definitely going to check that one out and also the yarn place you mentioned in Calgary. Have a wonderful time at Stitch North with your mum. Happy stitching from Nova Scotia.
Hi Marianne! Thanks so much for watching and for your kind words! Ancient Arts Yarns are BEAUTIFUL, and they have an online store ❤😊Happy stitching! Lisa
Love your WIPS - stitching and knitting. Sorry to hear about your hands … I had a period of some arthritis starting in my hands (I’m lucky it has decreased with a change in job). I found the wax bath they do at some nail places for hand softening was really comforting. It didn’t last for ages but it was nice for a few days!
Cloknits from Montreal was a great resource! And I watched Crazy Sock lady for the socks.... Tash at Mostly Knitting for the musselbourough hat and the coloir work was various videos... took me about 2 months, knitting every day, to learn it! Thanks for watching and for the kind words! 🪡🧵❤😊happy stitching! Lisa
@@LostInStitches Hi Lisa!! I just got my Quiltz pattern from Long Dog and I’m so excited!!! I forgot to ask what fabric you used and if you used the called for floss??? I am in love with yours and I want it to look just like yours!! Thank you in advance! Tammy

Due to my mg, there are days where i lose control of my hands, so i cant grip the needle and have trouble pulling the floss thru or fastening the tail in the back. And its disconcerting bc i have SO many designs i want to start, and wips on the go, but my body just wont let me stitch as fast as my mind wants me to! I try and remain positive- im super grateful im able to stitch at all, but its my one passion and i cant imagine losing my ability to do it. All i can do is take lots of breaks and do what i can when i can, right?!
Your ffo's are STUNNING!
happy stitching lisa!🐈⬛🪡❤️

Have a great trip to Stitch North & visit with your mum, time well spent 😊 Happy Stitchin
Hi Marie! Thanks for watching and for the kind words! 🪡🧵❤😊happy stitching! Lisa
Love that you’re loving life. Seems it’s so full of adventure, laughter and love. What a blessing to have all of that in life that a lot of folks never have. Thx for inserting the missing project pix from your finish parade. They are gorgeous! You’re a genius pulling bits from patterns and making them so pretty as pillows, etc.
Your hair is really growing in thick. My friend’s has grown back in thick too.
Enjoy Stitch North…with your mom no less! Thx for the video and beautiful pix. Been to Victoria but not the gardens. Darn it! Don’t think I’ve ever seen live starfish before! Wow!

great video. best thing my parents ever decided to do was take on exchange students from Japan while i was in high school. That was some &*^&^% number of years ago, but our families are still close. We've gone through births, marriages, and deaths with each other. Cheers to you on that journey! Also, i never wanted to knit until you said there is something called "lichen in my crevices"! As a PNW girl, i feel like i NEED to use that to make something! Thanks - i really needed another hobby.....lol - - jenny
Hi Jenny!!😂😂 have fun going down the knitting rabbit hole! Lol😅 Thanks for watching and for the kind words! 🪡🧵❤😊happy stitching! Lisa
I so enjoy your travel pictures. I can’t believe you taught yourself to knit and you have tackled such a variety of projects. I’m knitting challenged, so I have to live vicariously through those that are actually successful. Enjoy your retreat and time with your mom!

Hi Connie! Thanks for watching and for the kind words! 🪡🧵❤😊happy stitching! Lisa
So happy to see this Lisa. I’m glad it was from busyness that kept you away. So sorry you were ill before your trip though but you look well now. 🙏 continued prayers for strength and health. Such a beautiful smile!Have a wonderful time at Stitch North and your upcoming trip to Newfoundland! I loved seeing your new craft & the color work. Just lovely. I still struggle with knitting and can only do a basic hat or scarf 🧣 and they take me forever. Kudos to your husband for trying a new adventure! ❤ I do have to keep my hands busy though. Holidays will keep me busy I’m thinking but I have enjoyed my second ever retreat locally and think I’m hooked on retreats! Loved every minute. I have been absent on flosstube myself with all the coming and going but hope to give an update before November. It definitely is a process for me. Happy stitching!
Hi Lynda !Thanks so much for watching and for your kind words! The Fall is always busy for me, so I definitely understand the struggle and process of getting to a Flosstube! ❤😊Happy stitching! Lisa

Can’t wait to see you ❤❤❤
Yay!! Can't wait to meet you!
My heart is happy to see you back on Flosstube! Great vacation pictures, so happy you and Paulo are enjoying life. Take care, hope you are feeling 100% better soon and have fun at Stitch North! You’ll have to compare knitting notes with Kerri! Oh my gosh, I love your Songbird Mittens! I am knitting challenged, I couldn’t do it even if you paid me, and if you did, you’d want a refund!
Hi Jeanne!! ❤😊Thanks so much! I am having so much fun with the knitting!! Trust me! It has been a journey to get this far with the knitting, but I just practiced lots! 😊😊😊 its such a calming hobby! (Whe you're not dropping stitches or messing up the pattern!😅lol)
Happy Stitching and thanks for watching ! 😊Lisa

So lovely to see you back. Another fabulous video. I think your hair is fabulous - love it. Your knitting is amazing. Well done you.
Hi Elizabeth! ❤😊Thanks for watching and for the kind words! 🪡🧵❤😊happy stitching! Lisa
Enjoyed your video so much. Your Nan Green would be so proud of you for learning to knit! She taught me how-to turn the heel on a sock and to knit double mittens. Have a fantastic time with your Mom and I am so looking forward to seeing you in November. Love from Newfoundland ❤
Hi Aunt Viola! My mom was telling stories of Nan Green and her knitting❤😊 wonderful skill to have! Can't wait to see you in November! Lisa
Oh I was just so happy to see your post today. Have been thinking about you and hoping all was well. I do understand about a busy Fall though. Seems like there is something going on every day. Sometimes we just need to stop for a while and regroup. Hope your retreat is a therapy for you! Your knitting is coming along beautifully. I think I just knitted scarves for years before I started tackling more difficult patterns. Now my favorite is knitting sweaters...they are just so practical to throw on with your jeans in the fall and spring. Seems our weather here in the NW is so iffy, I keep a sweater at hand all the time. Wish I were closer so we could have an afternoon knitting over a cup of tea. Praying for your hands....though knitting will keep them limber, at least, I am sure you want to get back on your stitching as well. Praying strength, healing and blessings to you and your family!
Thanks for watching and for the kind words! 🪡🧵❤😊happy stitching! Lisa
So wonderful that you are going to Stitch North with your mom. I’ll be there, my first. I’ll be sure to say hi when I see you.
Hi Kathy! Thanks for watching and for the kind words! 🪡🧵❤😊happy stitching! Lisa❤
Hi Lisa, so great to meet you at Stitch North! (this is terri, and i'm stitching Stained Glass Lighthouse with you) i really enjoyed your pictures and videos at the end. we love Vancouver Island, and have been to Tofino a couple of times. Did you make it to the Tacofino food truck? I hope it's still there (fingers crossed). We were last there in september 2019, and stayed at MIddle Beach Lodge. we also spent some time in Victoria, and of course i recognized that you got to Butchart Gardens - the dahlias and the fuchsias are amazing that time of year. now that we live a bit closer we're planning a trip for later next spring! take care, terri
Have a fabulous time at Stitch North.
Hi Donna! Thanks for watching and for the kind words! 🪡🧵❤😊happy stitching! Lisa
So happy to see you. Your cross stitch projects are beautiful especially the Mirabilia one. WOW...your knitting pieces are amazing. You've definitely tackled some difficult projects and they look awesome. I love the mitten pattern and I'm definitely going to check that one out and also the yarn place you mentioned in Calgary. Have a wonderful time at Stitch North with your mum. Happy stitching from Nova Scotia.

Love your WIPS - stitching and knitting.
Sorry to hear about your hands … I had a period of some arthritis starting in my hands (I’m lucky it has decreased with a change in job). I found the wax bath they do at some nail places for hand softening was really comforting. It didn’t last for ages but it was nice for a few days!
Enjoy Stitch North and time with your mom!
Hi Kristine! Thanks so much for watching and for your kind words! ❤😊Happy stitching! Lisa
